Dress Code's
dam, Classy,
was one of our show donkeys in 2003-04. Classy was always

her credit. Classy is an absolute joy to have here on
the farm. We expect DRESSY to follow in her dam's hoofprints.
A classic little jennet who is small and super affectionate.
Dressy has a beautiful short head, very straight legs
both front and rear. She appears to have a terrific topline,
which is a characteristic of her sire,
Big Woods Secret Code, and her grandsire, NMDA
National Champion, Motown's
Secret. With so much dark color and dark spots
in her pedigree, Dressy should have no problem repeating
it in her foals. Dressy may be for sale after weaning
at about six months of age.

Cranberry, 32.5" Red (Sorrel)
He
had it all from the moment he stood. A small, well proportioned
jack with a spectacular head that's short and blocky,
much like his sire, Circle
C. Corona. Tucker is short coupled with fullness
to his rear and excellent balance. At only a day old you
could see the tremendous width in his chest, a very desirable
trait in a herd sire and show donkey.
This breeding is a result of some of the finest sorrel
bloodlines in North American and Canada. He is sure to
turn many heads in the years to come.
