Doodle Donkeys
Art & Rescue Animals
Written by Guest Artist Jacquelyn Giuffre
Who doesn’t love a miniature donkey? My friend couldn’t resist adopting “Dino”.Upon getting him home and settled it was readily apparent that he gravely missed his buddy “Elvis”. Back she went to bring Elvis home. The rest is history and all is well and happy in the barn.
Much to the chagrin of Novio the dressage horse the donkeys have the run of the barn and provide continual entertainment. - Jaque Giuffre

Speaking of Miniature donkeys, here is Anastasia with our happy donkey, Nugoro, when he first came home with us.
And here he is sending everyone happy greetings!

Beautiful work capturing the playful spirit of rescue donkeys! The bronze sculptur e really conveys that mischievous energy Dino and Elvis must bring to the barn. I've found that animals often form these unbreakable bonds, and bringing them together shows real compassion for their emotional wellbeing.
