"I’m so glad they will be in our wedding album for years to come."
Miniature donkeys are native to the Mediterranean islands of Sicily and have been extensively bred with each other to produce a distinctively American breed of donkeys: the Miniature Mediterranean Donkey. Learn More About Miniature Donkeys Here.
The mini donkey is defined by size, which varies from 26 inches to 36 inches at the withers (the ridge between the shoulder blades). Frank and Sammy are 34”. Great things come in small packages!
Minis have very docile personalities and form close attachments to their owners and other donkeys. They’re laid back and wonderful with kids. (our boys sure do LOVE them!) And because they are herd animals, they don't like being alone. Frank and Sammy are inseparable and work every event together.
Extremely intelligent and easily trained, they’re very tame and gentle. By nature they are one of the friendliest and most affectionate animals of their type, and they love their owners- always seeking their attention. Frank and Sammy do this with sweet, friendly nudges and gentle brays!
Mini Donkeys have earned a reputation for being stubborn but the truth is, they are observant and cautious animals, who won't do anything that appears threatening to them. When startled by something, their natural instinct is to freeze and look to see what the threat is. They feel safe with and trust their owners. And they interact well with other animals. In fact, they are often used as companions for weaned foals and nervous, injured or recovering animals. So sweet!
