| How To Buy a Miniature Donkey From Us Updated 8-12-08 |
Best Friends Farm Miniature Mediterranean Donkeys are bred to produce wonderful
dispositions and conformation in pet and breeding-quality miniatures. All our little
donkey foals are sweet, gentle but spunky, and human-loving. They get that way FAST
because we can't keep from loving on them, picking them up, hugging and scratching
them, and yes, even kissing them. My husband won't admit to that, but I've spotted him
puckering up a couple of times.
We specialize in purebred Miniature Mediterranean Donkeys, with pedigrees back to the
original imports from the late 1920's. Isn't it nice to know you are getting the very best!
We also carry a variety of beautiful and affectionate pet-quality miniature donkeys. Pet-
quality means the conformation is not up to the show and breeding standards of the
National Donkey and Mule Society. Examples might include a slight overbite, under bite,
or cow hock, which do not affect the behavior or health of the donkey, but nevertheless
make them pet quality rather than breeding or show quality.
We have baby miniature donkeys born most almost every month of the year, so we will
very likely have a one for you. Foals can be weaned at four months (click here to see
why on our Ethics Page). We use two jacks with different bloodlines and have many
different bloodlines within our family of jennets. Please take a look at our Breeding Plan
Page to see how we determine which donkeys to pair up for breeding.
You will have your choice of pet or breeding quality, affectionate, well-mannered
donkeys for the best price in the state of Florida and probably anywhere else. Compare
prices at gotdonkeys.com! We aren't big and we don't show our animals, however, many
of our donkeys are from show-quality, pedigreed stock and all are raised and trained
with love.

| Our Daddy Donkey (Senior Herd Sire) Lawzyday Farm's Sancho Panza |
| Sancho is pedigreed to the original Sicilian Imports. See information about his excellent pedigree on our Herd Sires Page. |
| Sancho has to be the most gentle, loyal jack in the land. I am not exaggerating! He follows me around like a puppy. He waits patiently until I rub and scratch him. Sancho really gets his feelings hurt if I shew him away, so I always ask him politely to move off when I need to do some work. Good manners tell me to thank him for letting me get my work done. But even if I forget and leave without saying goodbye, he still loves me! By the way, all his babies have inherited his loving, patient disposition! You can't find a sweeter, better pedigreed daddy donkey anywhere! And you can't say that about just any daddy donkey! This boy is special! |
