How You Can Help The
Donkeys In I reland
Over 1,200 donkeys have been taken into our
care. Many like Thomas rescued from a life of
neglect and suffering. Thomas' hooves had been
allowed to grow so long he could stand for only
very short periods.
We believe that donkeys deserve to be treated
humanely - they have served us well over the
years pulling carts and hauling peat. We owe
them the opportunity to spend their retirement in
peace with adequate care and attention.
