Minnie and Pearl

You haven't seen much of Minnie and Pearl lately. Thought I would give you an a**load of pictures! Haha! Here's my two girls. As many of you already know, they are special force black ops killer donkeys. Their mission, if they choose to accept it, to rid the pastures of coyotes.

This is how they sneak up on their prey! They never see Minnie coming!

Hey! How'd that get in there!


Well, back to business....Minnie Portrait.

Back to the business at hand, to serve and protect!

I just love their names! How funny is that! I have two barn cats that while not sure if they are related, since one has appeared several years after the first, they look and are colored almost exactly alike. I call them Ben and Jerry..........
Love that shot of them following one another with those big ears bringing up the rear. Cute!

Paula said...

Oh! I love them! Those names are too perfect!

Kris Heinze said...

HA! Not only are you a good photographer, you can tell a funny story too!

Seriously? They really keep coyotes at bay? I'm not a ranch girl, so tell me the truth!

I love donkeys. They are such useful creatures! And the braying? The braying makes me giggle - every single time! lol

They are real beauties!

Cuties!
I went to this breeding farm about oh...8 years ago. I remember the guy kept a donkey for two reasons.
1. he stabled it next to the brood mares and had a baby monitor. Every time a mare would foal the donkey would be braying it's head off. Enough to wake the whole household with the baby monitor.
2. The donkey would kick the shit out of any dog or animal that did not belong in the paddock. He was the guardian of the foals.

What a pair of cuties, too bad you can't convince them that black bull is a really big Coyote!

Love them! Savannah has decided she wants to get a jenny! I love the chocolate color!

Oh a Wrangler pic to boot! Oh okay back to donks!

Great pics as always!

I know Pedro takes his job seriously and the only dog allowed in our pasture is Shelby! They have a agreement! I've totally enjoyed our donks!

I warned everybody that you have a thing about the south end of north bound creatures. Even The Husband isn't safe. Nice shootin'! Oh, and I liked the donkeys, too.

Jocelyn said...

They are just way too cute! I will also have special ops donkeys when I move to the country, for their cuteness and for critter gitters.

I dint see a Wrangler pic, I will have to go read it again ;)

Bekah said...

oh how I love their ears!

gtyyup said...

Love all your arse shots...nice Wrangler shot too ;~)

I've yet to see my two actually protect something...my guess is that they would. They play chase the dogs when they feel the urge.

RURAL said...

Cute pics, I mean both kinds, LOL.

HOW ADORABLE!
Do they really get rid of the coyotes?

Country Whispers said...

Love your photos and your funny posts.

They're a good looking pair, that's a good look behind too:)

Paintsmh said...

Hmm what a nice combination of photos.

Caffienated Cowgirl said...

Seriously, I love Minnie and Pearl!

The W.O.W. factor! said...

LOVE the shot where Pearl looks like her ears are twice as big! Maybe drape the hide of a coyote over the black bully and the girls will chase him off!
The wrangler shot? I thought the next photo was going to be an uspside down one...where the girls mischieviously gave it a kick just for the "what for".

Gotta love Wranglers! :)

Did you ever receive that Hobby Lobby gift card from me? I've been meaning to ask you and I keep forgetting.

Happy Wednesday.

I just had to check out your blog after hearing about you from Robynn's Ravings. Your blog is a delight! I love the donkeys ... what a pair. I'll keep checking back ... I have a feeling you'll always have something interesting to blog about.

Train Wreck said...

That is a hot pair of...donkeys! he he, watch out, my cowboys ass shows up on search engines! Hahaha It is the funniest thing! "hey babe your ass is on the google images again..." Oh and his hind end too! he he!

Mikey said...

Love them!! Love the longears, and they are FIERCE sometimes. My jack will definitely go after a coyote, or a dog, as is usually the case. He also bites anything. You never turn your back on him.
Donkeys, I love them, but I have healthy respect for what those little devils can do. They are WAY stronger than they look.

Foxterriermom said...

Love your girls! Tell George he shoots equally well from the front and the back sides! (I'd know those cute little cheeks anywhere!!!)

Andrea said...

They are too cute!! And our donkies had the same mission and failed miserabely. We saw the our two donkies, the same color as yours, watch three coyotes walk right past them. We must have bought broken donkeys. Sigh.....

But your girls are really pretty, and shoot, how did that wrangler butt get in there??
