Carla- goat guard

Give Carla a pat from me, almost trying to be a zebra.....

Will do, Dave! She's what's called a Jerusalem donkey -cross on her back.

Greg & Verena....Nice back-lit shot of Carla especially effective around her whiskers.I forget what you told me some time back how she pursues her guard duty???Salutations-Laurent

Laurent- donkeys by nature hate dogs and will chase and kick them -coyotes are as good as dogs to them. Loose domestic dogs are the best threat to goats and sheep around here.

Hi G&V

Lovely photo of Carla. Well I try to learn something new everyday and today I see donkeys in a different way. She is very lucky to have such an important role to play.

Antony- thanks for checking in - glad to oblige. Might do a series on how Carla learned to love Sandor, our own guard dog.

I've never seen one before. Beautiful in its way. TFS this interesting beast V&G......................Best Regards, Holger

Holger- thanks- appreciate your time.
