Jingles is ok with whatever Thumper and I do. I have even laid down with him and she will come stand over us.

I still can't touch her.

The vet was out last Monday to do Fall Shots and tranq Jingles so we could trim her feet and it took an incredible amount of drugs to get the job done. We could have taken down both of my mares with what we gave to her. Her feet are trimmed and she is UTD on shots and worming. I promised my vet she would be much tamer in 6 months

It's going to be a party

:clap: :clap: Look at Thumper! He's gorgeous, and check out those racing stripes on the front and those fabulous ears. I know you are happy to have that over with for Jingles' sake (yours too). Sedating donkeys and mules is difficult; I know that donkeys have different blood values from horses, so maybe that has something to do with it.

I think you've made great progress if she lets you mess with Thumper and stands over you. So she knows you won't hurt him or her, but she's just not quite ready to let you in her space. It must be hard wanting to pat her and not being able to.

I promised the vet that I would have Jingles better in 6 months so I am going to have to get to it. She wants to interact but it goes against everything that she knows

He is out now with his little halter on for only the second time and poor Jingles won't let him anywhere near her when he is wearing that. So after about an hour, I will take it off.

Which gives me an idea that maybe I can get some more pics :cheer:

OH, that sweet Thumper in his new blue halter! I just love the first one (okay, mommy, I'm wearing it like you asked, now come pet me). He's just an angel.

That sky is beautiful!!!

He is an absolute joy.

I worked on pressure and release while he had his halter on and he was perfect. He is still not keen on having it put on ( that takes two of us)

I told the husband last night that we should have called him "Mazda" because when we turn them out he goes "ZOOM, ZOOM, ZOOM" for quite awhile

Ah, he's so cute. Is he a standard?

I house sit for a couple who breeds mini donkeys. The babies are adorable. The most recent one is white with little butterscoth colored spots on him. The funniest part is he's got little 'arabian' ears. The tips point in at each other like an arab's ears.

They're interesting creatures. For how small they are, they sometimes intimidate me because I'm not sure how they are going to react. Feeding seven mini donks that are focused on food and keeping everyone else away from their's can be harrowing. I especially love when they put their ears back, head down, and then run at me. :lol: I have no desire to find out what being head-butted by a mini donkey is like. Thankfully, they startle out of "rush" mode pretty easily.

He is a standard and when you stroke his ears he will lay his head on your lap and all but go to sleep :lol:
