Today is earth day and we all need to take notice of taking care of our wonderful Earth.If it wasn't for our Earth, we wouldn't have any food or animals. Earth helps to grow all our wonderful food and feeds the animals that we eat and provides us with the materials to build our houses. That is putting it very simply and big towns really need to be so careful of all the trash that gets thrown out.There just are so many ways to help our good earth.
Hi there, Smoke here. And I love the earth because it grows the grass that I eat plus it grows the hay that I like to eat. Now I am around 6 years old. I came from a very fancy breeding farm where they breed miniature donkeys to show. And I cannot be a show donkey of all things, because my muzzle is black and not while. So the Person got a really good deal as far as price goes. She got me because one of the ponies had to go to the bridge and that left only one pony and she needed company.
Hi there Joe, here and I came from the same miniature donkey breeding farm as Smoke did. I had to come keep Smoke company because the last horse here had to go to the bridge since she was so old and couldn't eat any more. And we are about six months apart in age and I have all kinds of problems, so I couldn't be a show donkey either. But do notice, that I have a white muzzle. But I have crooked teeth and that counts too. I have some joint problems and some breathing problems too. So I get to live here and just relax. Smoke and I are good buddies.
Last but certainly not least is our doggie Ande. She is a wonderful dog and gets along with all the cats, she loves people and children too. The donkeys do chase her and she doesn't mind that. She thinks it is fun. The Person got me as a tiny puppy because she had just moved and thought maybe since I am a Border Collie, that we could get to know people by going to herding lessons etc. Well I didn't like the herding stuff but I still try to herd the cats.

ReplyDeleteWe think you two donkeys are precious even if you aren't perfect to breed standard :)
ReplyDeleteGood to know Ande keeps track of all those kitties!
Well the person sure has a lot of babies to care for. Must work all day getting you all fed and tended too. I know she wouldn't have it any other way.

ReplyDeleteWe didn't know your stories, Joe and Smoke and Ande. We think you are just perfect the way you are. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy Earth Day, friends!
We love Donkey Day! Fortunately, Smoke & Joe are in a place where it doesn't matter if they breathe funny or have a black muzzle. They are loved and that counts so much more!
ReplyDeleteNice to learn more about Smoke and Joe and Ande. Ande does seem like a very sweet pup. Mom says she is going to check out the muzzles on our mini donkeys up the street to see if they are white. She doesn't think so:)

ReplyDeleteIt is nice to meet you Joe, Smoke, and Ande. Mom bean says donkeys are nice, her brofur has a donkey named Abraham. He wouldn't be good for shows either.
Ande, we thinks you should just give up trying to herd cats. It's not happening, MOL
Sasha, Sami, & Saku
