But my boyfriend doesn't think we need more animals, we already have two horses, two dogs and several cats. I'm like so what's one or two more?



Did you know farmers use donkeys to keep predators away from their livestock? Nothing scares a coyote more than a pissed off donkey.

They're very vocal, one of our neighbors has a herd of donkeys, you should hear them when he pulls up with feed, it's hilarious.

Another friend has a donkey named Clyde who steals things, every time he works on something Clyde makes off with his hand tools and he curses "GODDAMNIT CLYDE!"
