I j...Hi!<BR/><BR/>First, you're doing a great job for Faith. <BR/><BR/>I just wanted to comment on Dominic. We have 3 mini-donks. Two of which are rescued. Neither was ever abused, but both were "leftovers" that just needed a home to love them. Anyhow, it's funny you should refer to your donk as a terrorist. Ours have "real" names, but their nicknames are "Terroris #1", "Terrorist #2", and "The Antichrist". We feel that these nicknames are wholly appropriate. :-)<BR/><BR/>Do you know what you have with 3 mini-donks? A terrorist team. They actually work together to get what they want. If you're carrying hay, one will block your way while the other bumps your arm to shake the food loose. Yup. They plan. Together. Often.<BR/><BR/>Anyhow, it's a great thing you're doing. More people need to step up and rescue instead of buying or breeding.

He had been painted with latex paint (red,white, blue)by the girl scouts that were riding him, so had sores all over his legs preventing us from using any kind of linement. He was also on paddock turnout, but tended not to walk around at all. <BR/>Best of luck, its a very rewarding process.<BR/>Have you tried posting pictures at the lost/missing horses website, and on dreamhorse.com, and equine.com?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5493249665531906779.post-85271518196004577962009-03-17T11:56:00.000-04:002009-03-17T11:56:00.000-04:00Looking good!
