SUBSCRIBE to never miss a thing. You can order miniature blankets at our store at www.donkeywhis.... “A blanket is like a fire extinguisher. We have it ready to go before the emergency hits. Melody Johnson, Donkey Whisperer Farm ®.”
Why is it important to measure your donkey for a blanket? Donkeys evolved from the desert. Most blankets are made to fit a horse, not a donkey. Donkeys need help managing severe cold and winds. Donkeys' thick fur coats are not waterproof, making staying wet and cold in freezing and below-freezing weather dangerous to the donkey's health. Donkeys are prone to hypothermia much faster than horses and can get frostbite, laminitis, and, unfortunately, death. Rain rot, fungus, can be avoided.
Update: Kensington changed its mind and is not making custom donkey blankets yet. I have been promised they will in the future. The miniature blankets I sell online in my store fit a miniature donkey, pony, petite horse, and mini mule. I continue to ask Kensington to make custom donkey blankets for standard, burro, and mammoth.
How can I keep my donkey healthy during freezing weather?
Provide shelter with a door during high winds and freezing weather? Warm, clean water, salt, and a slow feeder with hay are also vital. A blanket that fits a donkey is critical, as when a donkey is shaking, shivering, and blowing diarrhea, we need to get the blanket on quickly. This is not the time to measure for a blanket. The blanket should be measured and ordered way ahead of time.
The Donkey Whisperer Farm ® is a dealer for Kensington Protective Products. We are excited to share that Kensington is now making custom donkey blankets to fit a donkey. These blankets will be available in my store at Donkeywhisperer.com in the fall of 2023 and winter of 2024. When you order from the Donkey Whisperer Farm ® store, you will get custom donkey blankets with a lifetime warranty.
Thank you for investing in your donkeys,
Melody Johnson
