Now called Charlie, his new guardian Sheri found his post online a week after her 40-year-old rescue donkey died. The name change came because a pony named Frankie visits Sheri香蕉视频直播檚 farm.
香蕉视频直播淗e is quite the affectionate donkey,香蕉视频直播� said Sheri.
香蕉视频直播淲hen it is breakfast time, he brays very loudly and then begins trotting over to get some scratches. Charlie loves to cruise around and has even figured out how to open the feed room door, so we香蕉视频直播檝e had to limit his time hanging out in the barn. He is the most energetic donkey I have ever had.香蕉视频直播�
Charlie, now in Langley, spends most of his days with his new friend Millie, a miniature mule, which Sheri adopted a week after Charlie as she figured they would make a good pair.
The BC SPCA said Charlie first came into their care when his owners were no longer able to support his medical needs, but after being examined by a veterinarian Charlie was found to have pituitary pars intermedia dysfunction (PPID), which is commonly referred to as Equine Cushing香蕉视频直播檚 Disease. PPID is a hormone disorder that can lead to complications and other serious health issues if left untreated, but BC SPCA said that in the right home with access to the appropriate medical care, a donkey can live a very long life.
Charlie also had severe dental disease and was missing several teeth, giving him trouble eating his food. He received dental care while in the BC SPCA香蕉视频直播檚 care.
