| Brayers Are Us Li'l Miss Margarita 32 5/8" Brown with Cross and Garters 09 May 2002 #34163 Li'l Miss Margarita almost slipped through our fingers at the first Great American Miniature Donkey Sale. We had won the auction of her best friend, Lola, and - thankfully - were able to bring her to Iowa also. What a calm sweetheart! She waits her turn for attention, is easy to halter, lead, load, clip -- everything! Her brown coat is the silkiest velvet of all our donks, and her fancy garters really stand out in the summer pasture. A nicely blended pedigree tops off the whole package we have found in Miss Mar. |

| Brayers Are Us Lola 32" Dark Brown 30 May 2002 #34160 Lola bought me. She and Miss Margarita were together in their pen, waiting for the next day's auction at The Elms Great American Miniature Donkey Sale. I leaned in and she pushed her nose into the crook of my neck. That was it! We have spent many hours together with her nose buried in my neck. Stephanie Dove told me her nickname as a foal was "love-bug." I decided to try one time to blend Donner's (my special pet) and Lola's personalities, before gelding Donner. Their jennet foal, Jannie, has exceeded all expectations. Lola is small, compact, correct, and has strong breeding behind her. She is a perfect example of why miniature donkeys are so wonderful. |

| Boone's Little Cassie 34 1/2" Rose/Gray-dun 28 April 2002 #38563 Cassie is the last jennet that was sold from Mr. Boone's herd dispersal, and we feel proud, lucky, and grateful to have her. She has given us a jack and a jenny foal - both are breeding quality with wonderful round butts, straight everything, good bone, and her red ears! Cassie's quality really shows when she moves across the pasture. She is a jennet we plan to enjoy for a long, long time. |
| Sassy Asses Li'l Jannie future brood jennet Very Dark Brown 15 July 2005 #48173 Jannie is the result of a one-time-only pairing. Her sire and dam were loving, intelligent, sassy foals, and I had to see if I could blend their special personalities. I gelded Donner, before his daughter was born, since he was growing too tall to keep as a herdsire. Imagine my surprise, when this super-dark little girl trotted up the hill with her mother! Jannie and her sire both "shake hands;" Jannie and her dam both want lots of loving, which they demand with nuzzles and head pushes, and I got more than I hoped for. I plan to breed Jannie to our new black/brown herdsire in 2008. Check back to see what develops! |
