Room at the Inn for Stevie
Little white donkey Stevie has had the perfect Christmas present -
he has traded a temporary stable at The Horse Trust's Home of Rest
for Horses for a permanent one.
The 11.3 hand donkey used to enjoy occasional holidays with the other
residents at the Home in Speen, Buckinghamshire, and was very fondly
remembered by some of the grooms.
Kept in the back garden he was a much loved lawn mower - until his
owner moved away leaving him in the care of the new house-owners.
Despite their best intentions to provide a loving home for this cuddly
donkey, their inexperience with horses forced them to seek help.
They recognised that Stevie was very lonely and suffering from lameness
and general depression.
This was the responsible attitude to take and, with Stevie's best interests
at heart, they waved him off to a permanent life in his favourite holiday home.
Already making new friends Stevie is a splendid addition to the Trust's
family of donkeys.
