Howdy All,

This is Snowball, our Daughter and Her Husbands new Friend.

He's a little over a year old and had been out on the Range with the Other Guard Donkey's:D

    Howdy pyry,

    He really should be styler when he loses all his Winter Hair.

    Howdy John,

    Thanks very much,

    They use Guard Donkeys around here to Watch after all kind of Stock, from Goats to Cows, and Just keep them in the Pastures to keep the wild dogs and Coyotes away.

    Hi Craig,

    Great picture. I've never heard of using Guard Donkeys. That's interesting. What do these guards do? Charge after the coyotes, kicking and biting? Do they have to be trained to do this kind of duty or do they take to it naturally?

    Take care.

    I always wanted to lie naked on a bearskin rug in front of a fireplace. Cracker Barrel didn't take kindly to it.

    Howdy Tom,

    Thanks, We'd never heard of them before either until we moved into our place out in the Country.

    They use them everywhere around here, they take the Animals as their family and most don't like any dogs around them, so one has to be careful. They particularly don't like Coyotes, they are known to run them off and are very protective of their Family.
    Take care,
