The joy our animals bring

Hi Val !
Have you even seen sheep jumping for joy ! And we are not talking lambs here. Those are fully grown Cameroon sheep. When we feed them in the morning, it’s simply delightful to witness their joy. As soon as they spot us with their feeding bowls, they come running down the lane in leaps and bounds of pure fun. Our donkeys display their pleasure in very much the same way especially when they see us heading towards their gate, dangling with their harnesses, which means time for walking. We lead them to the nearest wood land and there we let them free along those narrow and  mossy paths we have around here….they then dart off  at great speed, head high, kicking their back legs and farting. It’s soooooo funny! After a few minutes they join us again and  accompany us on our 2hour walk like dogs would. Living with animals is such a blessing…..Below is a video of our first born little Deeva last February…:
And a few days later under the puzzle look from the rest of the gang…:
Enjoy!

Val says I enjoyed the clips and I am so envious that you dare let your donkeys off their leads. I am sure mine would stay with me but have never dared to take the risk.
