Peaches

6 yr old Donkey Jenny

Available as a Pasture Mate
This lovely little girl has a special place in our hearts.

Peaches and another donkey, a 6 month old foal, were taken into emergency protective custody by animal control in April, 2021. There was also a third donkey on the property that was kept in the same trash-filled, 15 ft round pen as these two, but sadly the third donkey died on site. Unfortunately Peanut, the foal, did not make it either. She was very thin, hardly more than hair and bones, and could not even stand up on her own when she arrived at the rescue. Her body was unable to overcome the effects of her starvation.

Considering her former situation, Peaches has done well. She was underweight and extremely dehydrated when she was taken into custody, but with proper nutrition blossomed into a healthy little donkey. She was wary of people from the start and continues to be shy and cautious. She will approach close enough to receive a treat, but she does not like to be touched. She is very difficult to catch. Peaches needs an experienced owner that can spend a lot of quality time earning her trust.
