Worries about his neighbours donkey, Arthur

Val says I received a phone call yesterday from a very caring resident here worried about his neighbours donkey, which was locked in a barn, whilst two horses were in the field. I had an idea that they may be trying to get the donkey used to the horses before introducing as there can often be trouble  before or whilst friendships are made . Here is Dominics reply today.

All’s well that ends well, Val, in that our donkey, Arthur, was ‘released’ and now enjoys the company of two horses. Apparently my French farmer neighbour ‘rescued’ this one from the knackers yard, and kept it inside to allow time for familiarisation with its new surroundings and equine friends.

Dominic also sent this link of the young donkey now released with one of its friends and think this donkey was rescued from the Knacker's yard.

Dominic also says
Hope the Labrador found its owner eventually.
Val says    And a happy note in that the search is still going on for the owner of the labrador, but if not found the neighbour where it is hanging around likes it so much they will keep it.
Two lovely stories to cheer your day
