I (Sandy Olson) am retiring this year and will be leaving the most wonderful people. I have been wondering how to show my appreciation and gratefulness for all of our funfilled years together. All of a sudden it came to me, the team needed something they didn't already have. Frank, Juli, Linda, Socorro, Stacy, Theresa and Tim please meet your new adoptive Aruban Donkey Kroket. Kroket is happy to now have all of you as part of his life and looks forward to meeting you in person one day. Much love Sandy and Glenn Olson.
Ashley & Brandon Shiflett adopted Scar. They say: "Happy adoption day Scar!! Our happy donkey". When Scar came in many years ago he had huge scars on his hind legs, hence his name. However during the years the scars started to fade, like all scars do.
Alvaro Rodriguez and his family adopted Merlin one of our very friendly donkeys. She came in pregnant and gave birth to son Magic on april 11, 2009. She is with us since july 2008.
Becca Boatright said: "the moment I saw Jolly Jumper I knew he would complete our family. Thrilled to give my sons another brother." Jolly Jumper was born at the sanctuary on August 13, 2003. His mom is Sasha.
Musaqoi Young took her time to find a donkey to adopt. She read the stories in our book, made pictures of them and started exploring the sanctuary to find each. Blackie is the lucky donkey. He like to be cuddle by her and both felt comfortable in each others space.
