HARMONY WITH DONKEYS TOO!

THIS IS THE STORY OF ROSA THE DONKEY

 

I first met Rosa in the middle of a herd of about 30 jennets.  Before I left home, Larry and I had agreed that, if possible, I would let the donkey I was bringing home pick me. 

 

This proved to not be an issue, because the minute Rosa saw me she zeroed in on my person and would not let me visit with the other donkeys. 

 

She followed me everywhere. She placed herself between me and any of the other jennets at whom I was looking. Maybe it was because of the color of my hair. Actually, I don't know what it was, but she surely did choose me. 

 

To my knowledge, Rosa had spent most of her time in a donkey herd without a lot of people time.  I think the following pictures attest to the fact that donkeys are very people oriented and truly enjoy our company. 

 

Here begins the story of my life with...

 

 

ROSA BOSALITA BANDERAS DAVIS

 

 

 

                Rosa says, "Go away...this person is mine".      

                    

I think this is my girl... Boy, was that easy!

    Visiting the Western NC Agricultural Center a few weeks later, after a bath and a body clip!                          Looking good!

        Then came the Labor Day Apple Festival Parade

 

                     Hendersonville, NC  2014

 

 

                     Here's Rosa moving on to more exciting things!

 Waiting for the parade to start -

      Look how patient she is!

             Turn, turn, turn...let's show her off!

 

          At the end of the parade...Rosa, you are such a pro!

 

 

January 2015

            Rosa is more and more fun every day!

Finally! A warm day in January 2015            Time to get outside and do something!

         "Rosa, it's time to do your hoof treatment"  "It's so much work to be beautiful!"-Rosa

 Doing the maze..."Step it up, young lady"           "Yawn... is that all you've got?"

The End...heee haw!  For now, anyway!
