Donkey Sanctuary of Canada
Eeee-awwww....on August 4, 2010 my husband and I finally ventured to Puslinch to visit the Donkey Sanctuary of Canada.
Please make an effort to visit the sanctuary...check them out on-line for visiting hours. We really enjoyed the hours we spent there.
We packed a picnic which we ate by the beautiful pond. This a picture of me hugging Summer. She is the oldest donkey at the sanctuary right now. She was born in 1970 and is therefore, 40. This past February the sanctuary lost its two oldest donkeys who were 47 and 41. Typically a working donkey has a lifespan of 25-30 years. Summer is a very friendly donkey. She is soft and lovable.
The Sanctuary is home to mini donkeys, donkeys, mammoth donkeys, mules and hinnys. Mules are the offspring of a mare and a male donkey (jack/jackass). Hinnys are the opposite of mules.
Visit them as soon as you can!
