Just The Spot Naomi, one of our donkeys in the OAP herd, and in fact one of our oldest donkeys, is known by our staff and volunteers to absoloutely adore a really good scratch! If you hit just the right spots, you can see it on her face that she is in heaven! When their lips start twitching and their mouths open, you know you've found a good spot. This video shows one of our farm staff, Tiff, giving Naomi one of the best scratches ever! She was in such delight that at one point, we thought she m

*** RUBY - DONKEY OF THE DAY *** Todays "Donkey of the Day" was chosen by Mandy Barrett. Ruby was 2 years old when she arrived in April 2018 with her best friend Olivia. They both used to live near Winchester, but the field in which they lived was being sold. Ruby is a shy character and often looks to Olivia for moral support! She really is a beautiful donkey!

Welfare Wednesday In this weeks' instalment of Welfare Wednesdays we are continuing to look at all of our donkeys here at the Isle of Wight Donkey Sanctuary. We have gone through each of our herds and spoken about the management that these all need, but each individual may also need slightly different care, and they are all very unique! This week the name generator has chosen... Daffyd! Daffyd came to us along with his friends Emyr, Eiffion, Paddy O and Dylan in 2014. They all came to us from Wa

The Frenchies Arrive Our French donkeys are settling in with us. Here is a short video of their day yesterday, from when they arrived on the island to when they went into their new 'maison'. We have spent the last 3 days thanking everybody for their support, and we want to say a final and special thank you to driver Fred Parker, who spent every minute of the last 3 days with our donkeys, bringing them across the channel and across the Solent. He went with them to Poppys Place to make sure they w

It's finally that time of year when the sun starts to come out more, the fields start to dry out and the temperature starts to increase. All of us here at the sanctuary especially like this time of year because it means that the donkeys can finally start to go outside into the fields again! After a winter of needing to be inside out of the cold and the wet, the donkeys get very excited when they are finally given the chance to get out and stretch their legs again. This video shows the boys herd,

Meet Noah! In our Donkey of the Week series we introduce one of our lovely donkeys, and this week it’s Noah’s turn! 🫏 Noah arrived at the sanctuary in 2023 from a care home in Brighstone, along with his best friend Theo. Theo needed to undergo a number of surgeries at Liphook Equine hospital and Noah was right by his side the whole time. ❤ Noah and Theo are almost inseparable, but have different personalities. Noah is confident and strong willed. He likes to get up to mischief with the staff, n

Each week we feature a mini bio and background information on one of our donkeys. This week's donkey is Augustus! Augustus arrived at the sanctuary in 2020 from Stourport-on-Severn, after the field he was living in was completely flooded. He previously lived with a flock of sheep, so donkey company was entirely new to him! As he was used to living outside, we decided he would be best with one of our outdoor herds. As his previous companions were sheep, we noticed he was far more comfortable in a
