17 donkeys rescued in Ireland

Үй жануарлары мен аңдар

The Donkey Sanctuary is an international animal welfare charity, based in the UK, working to protect and care for donkeys and mules.
What started off as a routine check of cattle tags on a Meath farm by Department of Agriculture (DAFM) officials turned into a full blown donkey rescue with a wholly unexpected twist in the tail - Storm Desmond. The farmer in question admitted to having ‘’a couple of donkeys’’ on the land; however a quick walk of the 40 acres saw this increase to 15 donkeys, with some very obvious hoof issues. The donkeys were extremely timid and difficult to approach so Donkey Welfare Adviser Cathy Griffin was called in for advice and support. The weather gods threw their worst weather at her (Storm Barney) when she visited: storm force winds, rain, hail, sleet, even snow but the show had to go on. She found 17 donkeys in all many of which had severely overgrown hooves: some certainly looked like they had never been trimmed. Some of the mares looked like they might be pregnant but there was no adult stallion to be seen, alive or dead on the land. The Donkey Sanctuary Welfare team worked with My Lovely Horse (MLH, an equine welfare group) and made a plan to round up, load, transport and assess the donkeys at their base locally.

    It is a joy for me to send The Donkey Sanctuary money every month to help with their care, and to continue rescuing the ones that are suffering. My love for donkeys originated in childhood, and now, not able to do the actual care work for them, I am happy to help with at least some funding. Thank you to all the donkey sanctuary staff for your kind care of these animals.

    Thank you for all you do. We took over a local dog pound from the town into a nonprofit and greatly improved our town strays and abandoned dogs into new homes not 10 day euthanasia. That was over 20 years ago.

    Is so sad to see people been so cruel with animals. Poor donkeys and they are one the most gently animals in nature but due to physical abuse these animals are so nervous. I am so glad there is a Sanctuary in UK where they can protect some of them and i am so grateful for the rescuers. Myself i do use my spare time and money when i have to rescued abandon dogs.

People think they're very hardy animals but their coats are not waterproof & their hooves need to be filed down every 8-10 weeks. They need shelter etc. It's disgraceful how they're treated.
