This little donkey is like the energizer bunny...he just keeps going and going. He Won the pleasuring driving class and then flew around the ring in the donkey cart race to Win against all size donkeys. This just goes on to prove that miniature donkeys are capable, trainable and do learn different gaits. He can pleasure drive like a champ, never missing a beat or breaking into a canter and when asked to canter in a gaming class, without a whip, and with only his trainers cue, he will fly!
