A couple months ago, my family rescued a mini donkey Jenny named Rosie. We were told she was 14 years old and had been exposed to a Jack, so we had our vet take a blood test to see if she is pregnant, the results came back positive, but they didn't know how far along she was. She is in very bad...
So my mom and I have talked it over, and we have decided that we will get an old horse (in his 20s or late teens), but he won't be so old that he can hardly move. Also, we will make sure he is healthy and sound! If anyone has more comments, feel free to write them! I will be more than happy to...
