Our Donkeys Get a Brand New Gate

Posted on March 12, 2016 by Dan | 0 Comments

Our donkeys are now the proud owners of a beautiful new gate! They seem to have rather contemporary tastes – they wanted something quite minimalist. We pretty much had to do this. Donkeys are regular Houdinis when it comes to getting out of things. Last year we had a few escapades with our animals. Momo got out and was caught…

Donkey – the #1 Animal I’d Want With Me on a Desert Island

Posted on November 22, 2015 by Dan | 0 Comments

I've just completed reading an article about donkeys in the Wall Street Journal, of all places! There's a fellow out in NY, who seems to have caught the donkey bug, but harder than me. He's got at least ten of them; I have three. It's a fun article, the author and the humans on the scene that she talks with...

Helping Each Other Out

Posted on November 15, 2015 by Dan | 0 Comments

I am so happy with the amount of wonderful things that have come into my life lately. Probably the things that have mainly caught my attention are sites like “Kickstarter” and “GoFundMe”. Now, people in situations and people with marvelously bright ideas can tell the world what they have and ask for financial help. Help that might not be available…

A Weekend Off with my Animals

I am not always successful in doing it, but, more often than not, each week, I get a full day of relaxation with my animals. Of course, daily there is feeding and brushing and maintenance and chores with them, but on the weekend I get more. I find it extremely helpful to my feeling of well being. I bought this…

The Donkeys of Bamako’s Rubbish Dump

Posted on October 19, 2015 by Avi Ben David | 0 Comments

Imagine spending a short, pain-filled life pulling rubbish carts to help their owners earn a meagre living. This is the reality of the donkeys of Bamako’s rubbish dump. They work endless hours in the sweltering sun without any access to water. They spend their days wearing uncomfortable, ill-fitting harnessing, which can cause constant suffering. SPANA is on the ground in…

Even though I work for a gate and security company, I periodically have a security problem.

Baby Donkey Myka, and the International Working Animals Charity

Posted on June 25, 2015 by Avi Ben David | 1 Comments

Our little donkey Myka, and her mother, Mimi and father, Momo, live, I guess, the “good life”! In spite of the rough start that Myka had, nowadays, our animals have it very good. Plenty of grass and grain, all the water they need, room to roam, adoration from their “masters”; vet help whenever they need it. But our donkeys are hardly representative…

Myka Needs a Donkey Therapist, Can You Help?

Baby Donkey Update So many of you were so kind in supporting us when our Myka was born and had to be rushed to the hospital (you can read about her initial situation here, and there are stories of her recuperation here, here and here). We promised that we would continue to update our friends on how she’s doing. Well, there is…
