We had to give my donkey and Jakes horse away when he broke his back. The man I gave Rosie to had cattle and predators like bear and wolves. Rosie was a great guard donk. I loved that donk and horse as did Jake. But we could no longer take care of them at the time. Rather than sell them we gave them away with agreement we could come by and check on them and if they got rid of them we could get them back. Rosie would do a number on anything that came into our yard, we didn't have predators, also she was fun. Storms and age has made repairs less predator proof, this is where Leo and Foxy come in handy and we don't have to kill anything.

I bought a bow and arrow to learn how to use basically as a hobby, plus a quite form of protection. That did not wotk out for me too good, all I got was whelps on my arm. Jake did pretty good with it, although neither of us has touched it in several years.
