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.

Have You Helped a Donkey Recently?

Our recent close call with our Baby Donkey Myka, got me thinking of donkeys in general. Our Myka is, in my family’s mind, a companion and a pet. That’s not at all a typical relationship for a donkey to have with a human being. There are very few people who keep donkeys as pets, and it’s my bet that most…

Avi asks: Will You Pray With Us?* Myka, the Baby Donkey needs your prayers! For the last many months, my family has been very happily anticipating the arrival of a new baby in the family, a baby donkey! Just a few days ago, she arrived!

Generally speaking, the mascots used for security companies have always been dogs. Usually big bruiser dogs. Here is an example of a dog we have used in one of our promotional materials. Also, the logo for my company features a dog, a doberman pinscher, the sort of dog that is famous for being ferocious about protecting property or its master….
