  • It’s Barry’s release day!
    You may remember Barry, the donkey, who we rescued in late August along with Ruby, the goat. They were found wandering the streets after being abandoned by their “owner” who was sent to jail. If we weren’t able to take Barry and Ruby, they were going to be euthanized as they couldn’t be left roaming the streets and nobody else came to claim them.
    As it was the middle of summer, we were not able to have Barry gelded until last month, when the risk of infection was lower due to there being less flies.
    This means that Barry has lived with the goats since coming to the sanctuary. He has been out for walks on the lead rope and met the other donkeys through the fence but today was his first proper day exploring the sanctuary!
    Thank you so much for your continued support. Without you, we wouldn’t be able to offer animals like Barry & Ruby the safety of sanctuary ❤️

    The way he's hanging around the horses, I would say he's been brought up around them & that's why he keeps going back to them. Even the horses are liking him even thou they are curious animals, they are not chasing him away in this video. It's so lovely to see him out now & running around so happy & free in his life with you two looking after him ❤

    I'm so happy for Barry. He looked so happy when he started running. I do think he fancies himself as a horse not a donkey the way he played with them. It looked like that one horse stopped and told him he could play with them when they were on their way out to the field. Great video!
