Vasko

By supporting one of our animals in need you help us protect others too.

Vasko’s arrival in the Valley in 2021 was quite a surprise. We had made arrangements to welcome a female donkey from the town of Petrich. But when the trailer arrived we were faced with a second donkey – a sorry-looking one with the worst hooves imaginable. The local farmer who provided the transport had decided to use the opportunity and bring Vasko, too.

Vasko had been headed for the slaughterhouse but his good fortune continued when after a series of hoof trimmings with us he managed to recover his correct posture. He now roams the Valley freely, always in a group – he is a sociable donkey and is the happiest in the company of other donkeys.
