Izzy is a blue/black with light points and no visible stripe. She is really, really black! A very straight girl who is a full sister to a black jack, KKR Good As Gold, that I showed at The 2004 Tennessee State Fair and who won Grand Champion Jack against all ages when he was only 6 months old! I knew she was going to be a nice donkey the day she was born. She just had that 'look' about her. She has a really pretty head, beautiful, straight legs, with perfect tracking, and is really upheaded and showy. Izzy is beautiful to watch in the pasture and the show ring.

IsaBell will be shown until she is old enough to be added to our breeding program.

News Flash! KKR IsaBell won her class and Grand Champion Junior Donkey at the ADMS Nationals in 2006. She also won Reserve Champion Jennet against all ages at the 2006 NMDA Tennessee State Fair Show. IsaBell won 1st place in the Dallas NMDA foal class, and placed 2nd in the foal class at the NMDA Nationals in Shelbyville, her first time shown!

Posey is a little show donkey. She is very heads up and always alert to everything around her. If someone was looking for a donkey to start in the show ring, Posey would be a great choice. She has the most beautiful ears like her mom, long and curved. Posey is very sweet and people oriented and will stand very quiet if you are petting her. She has beautiful conformation, and is out of one of my favorite jennets. She does show a slight cross, but has the cream colored nose, with a white chest and white between her back legs, and lots of white hairs on her underbelly. If I was not thinnning out my donkeys she would never be for sale.

Sunny is a very drafy, well built jennet. She is one of my favorites. She has a sweet disposition, shows lots of bone and is very wide in the chest and rear. I'd like to have a herd of donkeys just like her. Autumn had a jennet foal on 4/28/07! And another jennet on 3/24/10 sired by Rowdy also.

Cee Cee is very sweet and stocky. She has a wide compact body and good topline with a round rear. She has had one foal and is expecting her next foal on September 29th, 2010, sired by Heiken's Ark Napoleon, a 31½" dark spotted jack with no light points. This is a super nice jennet and she should have an outstanding foal bred to this jack.

This little jennet is beautiful, and her spot pattern is very flashy. I have reluctently added her to my for sale page. Abby is very drafty, with straight legs, a big round rear end and a chest to die for! She is as sweet as can be. Abby is a good mother, and is UTD on her vaccinations, wormings and hoof care. She is micro chipped and DNA typed also. Her foal last year is built like a tank and has an identical spot pattern to her. I really love this donkey. Abby has been bred to Arcadian Yogi for a March 2011 foal.

Kruze was gelded on April 14th, 2010, and he has made a complete recovery. I still haven't decided what color of brown Kruze is going to be. He is dark under his outer coat, and has extensive white points and lots of roaning through out his coat. He has several leg garters that really make him stand out. He is very flashy and catchs your eye. Kruze is a beautiful mover and very showy. He LOVES people and reminds me a lot of his sire. Kruze is a half brother to StarLite, my favorite donkey bar none. His dam has excellent conformation and he is following in her footsteps. He is built like a tank, has extreme width in his chest and has that quarter horse butt like his mom. Plus he has a beautiful head, and great legs. I would expect him to do well in the show ring with his conformation. He is a really pretty little guy. Very chunky for 7 months, and smart and calm about everything. Loves the horses! If you're interested in Kruze come out and take a look.

This jennet is 32 inches BARELY. I am having a hard time listing this girl for sale. I just love her. This jennet is one of those donkeys that EVERYONE comments about. She is a very black /brown, with a striking white underbelly and blazed face. Party is very drafty, with good legs and a wide body. She has a cute, short & wide little head. She loves everyone, gets along with all the donkeys and she is ready to breed now. I had planned on breeding her this past fall and time slipped away and it got too cold. She cycles regularly and should have some beautiful foals.

Harlow is a black/brown dark spot. She has a beautiful spot pattern, and a personality out of this world. Harlow has wonderful conformation, nice round butt, good straight legs, and she is wide bodied. This jennet will make a great show donkey, and a brood jennet when she is old enough. Harlow is not going to be over 31½" tall when she is mature. She is very short and feminine. Harlow should produce some beautiful spotted babies.

I just LOVE this little girl. Cookie is destined for the show ring. She has a beautiful head on her, and what a face she has. Cookie has a really stout build with a short back, and lots of bone. She is very wide in the chest, has a beautiful round butt, and good straight legs. She is super sweet, and loves people. This is a really beautiful little girl. She has black and spotted in her pedigree so if bred to a spot when she is older she could produce a spotted foal. This is one of my favorite coming two year olds, and built like what I have been breeding donkeys for.

Ten is a full sister to Ciara, NMDA Champion & Best of Breed winner, along with many other halter and performance wins. She has an awesome front and rear end on her, very full hindquarters, and has the most beautiful head you could ask for. And you couldn't ask for a sweeter, kinder temperament. You can do anything with her. She is trained for halter and trail obstacles. Ten has really matured this last year. Bred to Rowdy Yates for an April 2010 foal. This should be an outstanding cross and I think the foal will do great in the show ring.

Petals is bred to Rowdy for an October 2009 foal. I would expect this to be a black foal with a white nose. She is an easy breeder and had no trouble with foaling. Petals has the most beautiful head, short and wide in the forehead with a big star. She has a good rear end and wide chest, her legs are straight and she is as sweet as they come. Petels was shown by her breeder Dave Larson in the Yearling Jennet Halter Class at the World Miniature Donkey Show in Calgary and she placed in the top ten with no training and no previous showing experience.

Rumor is going to make a great show donkey. She is already very heads up and showy. She has that look about her just like her other brothers and sister that have done so well in the show ring. Rumor is a beautiful mover and very elegant. She has a nice full rear end, very correct legs, tracks well and has good width in her body and chest. And did I mention sweet? She loves people and came that way. Rumor is a full sister to Good As Gold, IsaBell, and Kings Ransom. Gold just got his 4th Championship Jack title with very limited showing; IsaBell is a NMDA Junior National Champion, and ADMS Champion too, along with doing well in obstacles; and Ransom has won both in halter and performance and is just now starting his driving training. I expect Rumor to follow in their footsteps. If your looking for a nice jennet to show, and one that has proven genetics over and over, you might want to look at Rumor. Show home discount.

Kevin and I have made the VERY difficult decision to sell Rowdy. It was not an easy decision for us. We have been so pleased with what he has produced and contributed to our breeding program. We have owned Rowdy since he was a 2 year old and just love him. He is a well balanced, heavy boned jack, with a beautiful, masculine head. His huge, well defined eye rings are very prominent and something he throws in all his foals. Rowdy has a beautiful, kind eye, nice round rear end and a gorgeous set of legs. His easy going temperament makes him an asset to our herd. He is easy to handle, stands great for the farrier, and has never been a problem for us. Rowdy has what I call a curly coat, and keeps this for about 7 months of the year. (see picture above). He sheds it off every year and then gets it back. What a head of hair! Now mind you we live in Texas so it's not just a winter coat. We don't get that cold. He throws this curly coat in his foals, and he also throws a super, long, thick and silky coat on them. We have been so pleased with his foals, and they are definitely taking after him. They have his beautiful head, and eye, good bone, and short, level toplines, along with those gorgeous straight legs I love so much! And, yes, his disposition too. He loves attention and most of all his butt scratches. During breeding season he is an easy going gentleman, never marking them or being super aggressive towards them. He's every breeders dream, and both pasture and hand breeds. Rowdy is very prominent for throwing blacks with no stripe and also dark brown and white spotted, and the tyger spot pattern. As far as I know he has never thrown a NLP, even when bred to NLP donkeys. We have kept several of his foals to put back in our herd and we're super happy with them. Because we have retained so many Rowdy daughters in our herd we must now reluctantly offfer him for sale. Rowdy is producing NMDA and ADMS Champions and we are really happy to see this. We have been so blessed to own him! If your looking for a proven herd sire that is producing Champions and correct conformation, along with one that is easy to handle and get along with, Rowdy may be your guy. I really love this little donkey and want him to go to a good home with someone that will give him some attention and some pretty girls. He has been very good to us. If your interested in Rowdy, and have any questions please e-mail or call (903-852-2840) and I'll be happy to answer them for you.

Merlin is turning out to be a really nice little guy. I have had him in the barn for a few weeks and he is now trained to show in halter. He walks, trots and sets up, although he is still a baby and gets antsy standing for long periods of time. Merlin will stand tied, is good for the farrier, loads in the trailer, and never moved for his body clipping, even his ears. He is sweet as can be and very trusting. Merlin has a chest to die for, with great bone, straight legs and a beautiful round butt. And the longest set of ears! Merlin has one of the prettiest spot patterns I have seen, with huge rings around both eyes. If your looking for a flashy spotted jack to show, and then use as your herd sire, you really need to look at Merlin. This is a really nice little jack. Up to date on vaccinations, wormings and has a current coggins.

Sabrina is about as sweet and sound of a jennet as you could ask for. She has a wonderful temperament and loves people, especially children. She will let any child ride her and follows them around like a puppy! Sabrina has a set of back legs to die for and is a very up headed donkey. She throws a beautiful head on her foals, and has great width in her chest.. Sabrina is bred to Rowdy Yates for a Spring 2010 foal. She will not be able to leave for her new home until Mid June, and I can bring her to Shelbyville in July if someone purchases her back east. She is UTD on wormings, hoof trimmings and vaccinations. This is a really nice jennet, I just need to cut back a few more. Her foals are black with no stripe out of this cross, they have had a small star, and very correct conformation, and are winning in the show ring.

This little jennet is just a doll, and is as sweet as they come. She just loves people. Ever has a baby doll head, with a short body and extremely straight legs, both front and back. Very heads up and alert. She really stands out in the pasture. Ever is very independent and keeps her mom running. Her full brother won the yearling jack class, which was a huge class and had some tough competition, and came back to win Grand Champion Junior at his first show. (3 of Rowdy's foals were in this Championship class and they were grand and reserve junior). Pretty impressive. This little girl reminds me a lot of her brother but more feminine. If your looking for a really nice donkey to show with excellent conformation, or a good future brood jennet you need to look at Ever. You won't be disappointed in her.

Blossom is such a neat little jennet. She is bred to Rowdy Yates for an October 2009 foal. She is a great mother, and really easy breeder. Blossom has produced some awesome foals that have been Champion Halter donkeys, ACOSA winners, and performance winners. She is sweet as can be, and you can catch her anywhere in the pasture. She has a round rear end, great back legs, and pretty head. Blossom is not straight in the front legs though. She was not cared for right when she was young and her feet were horrible when I got her. This is not something she has passed on and all her foals have been extremely straight. I will only sell her to a good home. She is just very special to me. Blossom is current on her vaccinations and hoof care.

In 2003 she foaled a brown/gray and white spotted jack, KKR Cajun, now residing at Short & Sweet Donkey Ranch. Cajun has numerous wins in halter and obstacle classes, and was the National Reserve Champion ACOSA Jack in Shelbyville 2006.

Her 2004 foal, SpotCheck, sired by Sunset Acres Rowdy Yates is absolutely gorgeous. Heavy boned and very correct.

In 2006 she foaled a spotted jennet, by Rowdy again, KKR Maybelline.

Rowdy sure put his stamp on this little guy. Solo is as sweet as they come. But out of CinderBelle how could he not be! This is a very nice little boy. Extremely straight legs with lots of width in the front and back. Short bodied and a beautiful little head. Solo's full sister is doing well in the show ring, both in halter and obstacles. And his half brother has won Championships in both halter and performance. I expect Solo to follow in their footsteps. If your looking for a nice black herdsire and one that should do well in the show ring, you need to look at this little guy. He is really beautiful!

Sydney is a really nice jennet. She has been a great brood jennet for me, always producing good bodied foals with nice legs, and huge chests. And she is a good mom. She is easy to handle, loves people and you can catch her anywhere. Sydney has a really nice hindquarters on her, her legs are straight and she has great color. She is current on vaccinations and hoof trimmings. Sydney will be ready for her new home in April 2009, after her last foal is weaned.

A culmination of everything: Conformation, Color, Size and a pedigree to die for going back to the Coday and Danby Farms. Black Widow has a full, outstanding pedigree filled with reds and blacks. Many great and historic names in the miniature donkey world are found in Widow's background. Black Widow is bred to Rowdy Yates for a late February foal. This should be a great cross, and a black foal. She is an excellent mother, easy breeder, and has a rear end to die for. If you're looking for a nice mature jennet with an excellent temperament, and one ready to foal soon, take a look at Black Widow.

Suede is a beautiful blue black, and such a sweetheart!. Do you know how hard it is to photograph a black donkey? They hardly show up. Suede is a full brother to Good As Gold and IsaBell, both winning NMDA Championship titles. Last years foal of this cross is Kings Ransom and he is on his way to this level along with excelling in performance. I expect Suede to follow in their footsteps. He is the 4th foal out of this cross and all of them have been built the same way when born. Very elegant and beautiful movers. Suede is very heads up, with a long set of ears. His legs are excellent, very square, and he has a beautiful chest and rear end, with a short head and wide forehead. I consider Suede to be good enough to become a herdsire. He isn't going to be a tiny donkey, but he will grow up to be stout, with awesome conformation. If your looking for a beautiful, flashy herdsire to raise, and your wanting lots of black in the pedigree, take a look at suede. He's a nice little boy, and will make a super show donkey too.

Congratulations to

Marchi is about the most friendly donkey I have ever had in my life. Nothing scares him, he is independent, loves people, and has really nice conformation.

I named Marchi after my hectic month of March. He is sired by a very stunning, dark red jack, QM Code Red, owned by North Gate Farm, who is also a multiple halter winner, and I love his dam. This little guy shows great promise too. Marchi is a beautiful mover, with awesome straight legs and chest for a foal.

He is full bodied, has a great topline, and the most wonderful personality you could ever ask for. I was in the pasture on the tractor and Marchi at 1 week old was chasing the tractor and chewing on the tires while it was still running. I had to lock him up to get out. Come meet Marchi. You will fall in love with him. This little guy has an awesome pedigree, full of Red and dark donkeys. Marchi will be offered as a jack or gelding.

31 5/8" Dark Brown Jack

Sire:  Willow Creek Luigi, 31.75" Dark Brown
     Grand Sire: MHT Giovanni, 32" Dark Brown
     Grand Dam: MHT Crystal, 33.5" Gray-Dun

Dam: Windy Willows Sapphire, 32" Brown
     Grand Sire: Circle C Lightening Strikes, 32.5" Dark Brown, NLP
     Grand Dam:  Someday's Misty II, 31.5" Gray-Dun

Sundance has a very correct structure, coupled with a short compact body, beautiful wide front end, and an attractive short head. His legs are as straight as can be, he tracks perfect, and has a lot of bone. He has a wonderful temperament, very gentle and calm. The pictures above are not his true color. He is very dark brown after he sheds his winter coat. This is a really nice little jack, and a pleasure to be around and handle. He is trained well enough he could go back in the show ring. Sundance will pasture or hand breed, and has a gentle enough temperament to run with foals.

His pedigree is exceptional with both his sire and dam tracing back to the Sardinian imports . His sire, Willow Creek Luigi, is a two-time ADMS National Halter Champion and an NMDA National Halter Champion. Sundance was shown as a yearling a for a short period of time.

Some photos of Sundance are compliments of Red Gate Farm.

I loved this jennet the first time I saw her. She is extremely wide in the chest and rear, has a gorgeous head, and a beautiful set of legs. Shazam has the sweetest temperament, except if your body clipping her. She absolutely hate it! She turns into another donkey that I don't want to know.

First time shown Shazam placed third in NMDA Foals at Halter, Dallas State Fair, 2005, in a class of fourteen! March 2006 Shazam placed 3rd out of a huge class of foals at the Houston Livestock Show.

Taylor will make a great herdsire for someone looking for really small. He is about as square a donkey as they come, and has a drafty build. Perfect bite. Very correct legs with good bone, beautiful little head with a big white star, really nice topline, and an awesome chest on him. Taylor is as sweet as they come and full of personality. He has lots of dark in his pedigree. If your looking for a black herdsire that is going to top out around 30 inches, and one that has great conformation, consider looking at Taylor.

Racer is a wonderful donkey. He is small, square, and compact. I wouldn't be selling him, but I just can't keep him right now. Racer has a lot of bone and width in both his front and rear, a wide chest, really straight legs, with a beautiful full round rear end. He has the most gorgeous little head and throws this on his foals. To date he is throwing mostly jennet foals. He has a really nice disposition, is easy to handle, and he absolutely loves people. He hands or pasture breeds, and gets the job done. Racer has a really good pedigree, and would do really well for someone wanting to breed either blacks or sorrels. If you're looking for a small, mature herd sire, that has experience, and looks, you really should look at Racer. You're not going to be disappointed with him.

      Grand Dam:   MGF Venus Sienna Serenade, 33.75" Dark Brown

Boy, do I like this little guy. The more I am around him the more I like him. If your looking for a really well built herd sire prospect, that is black and very flashy, with an excellent pedigree, take a look at him. Both his sire and dam are black with no cross, and there are lots of blacks in his pedigree. He has a beautiful little head and a very up headed style about him. He moves very fluently and shows good reach. He is straight both in the front and rear legs and has a good chest and well rounded hindquarters. Plus he is as sweet as can be. This is a nice little boy. I have been really tempted to hold on to him. If you like the blacks and are looking for wonderful conformation, I don't think you will be disappointed.

Congratulations to

This little black boy is going to make you
so proud in the show ring and in the pasture!

Dam:  Big Woods Black Widow 33.5" Black/Brown
      Grand Sire:  Laughlin's Fireball, 32" Red/Brown
      Grand Dam:   Laughlin's Lina, 32" Black

Shades is such a flashy young man. He is smokey black all over except for the insides of his ears which are white. He carries his head high, and is beautiful to watch in the pasture. He will make someone a great little donkey for driving or just to have as a pet. I have considered keeping him to show. If you're looking for a really nice donkey to train and begin showing, Shades can fit that bill. He really is a nice donkey and I think he will be wonderful in cart.

Boy, what a little tank this guy is. He has the widest chest for such a little foal and the most perfect set of legs. Great bone for only being 18.5 inches tall at birth. He is good enough to be a herdsire. Striker has a beautiful head and the sweetest personality too. He just loves people. .If you're looking for a nice little donkey and you love that classic gray, Striker may be just what you're looking for. He would make someone a nice show donkey.

Prudence is a big pet. We weren't sure what to expect from her since she has been spoiled rotten, but we weren't disappointed in her. Along with the fact that she likes to do tricks, Prudence has a beautiful head She's a little on the tall side, but all her foals have stayed small, and are absolutely gorgeous with wide chests and rears and beautiful straight legs, and pretty heads. She crosses well with Rowdy.

Prudence has been rebred to Rowdy for a fall 2005 foal. We are hoping for another outstanding foal from this cross. Update! Prudence foaled a true black jack on 9/10/05. Visit our 'foal' page to see more photos of KKR Somekida Epic! Update: Epic wins Reserve Junior Champion at Red Bluff California 2006!

Prudence has been bred back to Rowdy for a January 2007 foal. We are excited to see the foal from this combination again as they have been outstanding. Update! Prudence delivered a black girl on 1/10/07 @ 2:30pm!

This is a nice little spotted jack. His sire has been throwing some awesome foals for me. He loves people already and comes running when he hears your voice. He is small and short bodied, with nice straight legs and width for being so young.

This little guy is so short and square. Look at his chest. He is going to be a little tank. The few spots that he has are dark brown. Tuff has a really short, and wide head. At a month and a half he still has VERY BLUE EYES. Tuff's dam has produced some really nice foals. If your looking for a really small jack to add color to your herd, and one that has small donkeys in his pedigree, Tuff might be what your looking for. He is really sweet and would make a great pet for someone too.

Chanelle is a really nice little jennet. She is an easy breeder, and never had any problems foaling, and she is a good mom. Chanelle has had both spotted and black foals. She is bred to FL Sundance Kid for a October 07 foal. People always gravitate toward her in the pasture because she is so cute! Of course if they don't, she will find them. She is a very wide bodied donkey with a beautiful rear end. I am going to be very picky as to where this little girl goes.

This jennet is absolutely gorgeous. She has been shown for a few years by a young child in halter and costume classes, and is practically unbeatable in the spotted classes. She is child and bomb proof. Miss T had trouble getting pregnant by her previous owner's jack. I have been running her with my jack, FL Sundance Kid, but I am not guaranteeing her bred because of her past. She has been started in cart and is doing really well. You can drive her in the pastures, she stands quietly for harnessing and while you're in the cart, and she is moving out in her gaits nicely. She just needs some miles. Miss T is a very drafty and correct jennet, with good width in her front and back legs, a beautiful, wide chest and back and a quarter horse rump. If your looking for a gentle donkey, or one that is started in cart, Miss T might just be the donkey your looking for. I have reduced the price of this jennet only because I really want to find her a good home. I just don't have the time to continue her training right now.

Harpie is a very wide and drafty donkey. She has a beautiful, full round butt, and big expressive eyes like her sire. I doubt she will mature bigger than 32 inches at the most. She is only 28.25 inches at 10 months old. Harpie is very sweet and loves people. Her half brother is a herdsire in Canada now and did awesome in the show ring, both in halter and obstacles. Her sire is putting some outstanding foals on the ground for me that are winning in the show ring. I have retained several jennets from 2006 which is the only reason I am offering her for sale. Harpie is not body clipped in these pictures and has a lot of her winter hair still, but she is a true black and shows no stripe.

Sunny is a beautiful jennet with an very extensive pedigree going back to the original imports with 562 ancestors on file. She is a wonderful mom, and breeds easily. Sunny has had 3 foals for me, all dark spotted with the tyger spotting factor.

This is a really nice jennet, and sweet as they come. She is easy to catch and handle, gets along with other donkeys, and very quiet natured. Sunny is built like a tank. She has a beautiful head, wide chest, and really round rear end.
