Yesterday we were out on the road visiting some of the ERF adopted donkeys. First stop was to see Maddie, Elly and Poppy who have been out under contract since 2009 in the Haute Vienne.
The 3 of them look superb and little Poppy has now grown into quite a big donkey. It’s nice to hear that they are now getting on well having their feet trimmed, which was a bit of a battle to start...

Today we travelled down to the holding yard in the Dordogne to see 3 donkeys, Nanette, Belle and Lena.
When we got there, we saw that the condition of Nanette’s feet (the oldest donkey) are quite dire. They have overgrown to the stage that they now turn outwards on all four feet. Unfortunately she will not be suitable to re-home for some time, if ever, but we could not leave her...
