Connie Brucato adopted Sassy, one of the very first donkeys who is still with us. She said: "you have to visit & adopt!" We totally agree with that. Rob Brucato, Connie's husband said: "how an you not adopt one?" so he adopted Kiba who is with us for a very long time as well.

Ron & Judi McMillan wanted to adopt a donkey. Any donkey is good they said. "We love them all". Stripes isn't adopted often so this was a nice change to bring him in the spot light for once,

Ann Colonna adopted Keto. The donkey that fell in an open septic tank which they were still building. So no dirty donkey. The fire department pulled him out in a sling. However he was very quiet after a night in the hole. Keto means QUIET in papiamento. Hence is name. He is still a quiet donkey though. This was back in 2018.


Kathy Persaud adopted Chocolat because they are her favorite animals. Chocolat gave me the eyes, how could I resist?
She also adopted Kroket, who is always sticking out his tongue.

Thomas & Calie Lindseth adopted Blackie, who is with us since he was a baby of about 7 months old. He was hit by a car and broke his front leg. He had surgery, however he walks like Charlie Chaplin. That doesn't bother him at all. He runs, plays, does everything any other donkey can do.

Take Route 4a from the hotels and follow this road for 14 km, pass all the circles/roundabouts until you see a sign for the French Men’s Pass. Make a left turn onto the French Men’s Pass, then 1st left, 2nd right. On that dirt road you will find the Donkey Sanctuary after about 200 meters.
