Our Miniature Donkeys

Donkey...also known as burro or ass, is the longest eared member of the equine family. The female is called a Jennet or Jenny and the male is known as a Jack. Donkeys are affectionate, curious, and gentle, but also cautious which is often mistaken for stubbornness. They range in color from Grey-dun to White, Brown, Black, Red, or Spotted. Donkeys are used for riding, driving, packing, or as herd guards, and they make excellent family pets!

The American Donkey and Mule Society recognizes any donkey that measures 36" or less at the withers as a Mini, 36" to 54" as a Standard, and over 54" as a Mammoth.
