Oh Bernardo…..he is the donkey with the loving attitude….ony lovin him, mostest, bestest and mostest again. Harriet is so dear. She is just where she deserves to be. All the donks, dogs, goats etc at MBF are the luckiest loved critters ever.
Bernard is so funny-what a silly sweet boy! And it is so good to see Harriet all snuggly 🙂 By the way…you look beeeeyootiful 🙂 What a perfect morning 🙂
Ya gotta love that Bernard isn’t afraid to ask for what he wants. And, there’s always plenty of love to go around at Morning Bray. What a special place. xoxo
Great pics! So glad Miss. Harriet is you you guys. I wonder why does the crest of her mane flop to one side? I’ve never seen that before.
Regardless, she is beautiful, just wondering.
A fat donkey will develop a “roll”; on the neck, pones of fat on the barrel and over the hips that are quite unsightly. Once there, these are usually with the donkey for life. If the neck roll of fat gets too heavy, it will fall or “break over” to one side and never come upright again!
The other thing I learned recently is that fat necks are also a symptom of nutritional deficiency… it’s not only an overweight donkey who will develop a neck roll:

So Bernard has to come into action…
He is too cute!
