On Donkey Time

Earlier this past spring my barn owner rescued a group of horses from a farm in the area who had fallen on hard times.  Included in this group is a 9 year old donkey.   I agreed to foster her and look after her.  Her feet had not been cared for and were very long. Mike Mehak the farrier trimmed her feet and they are improving gradually but she is much more comfortable than she was. I clipped off her belly hair as it was all stuck with poop and mud and have been grooming her and getting to know her. We are starting some short leading lessons and friendly games.. She is afraid of the fly boots I got her so guess we start there. Named her Jenny. Always liked that name. :)
