Review for Oregon Donkey Sanctuary Northwest, Oregon City, OR, USA
I recently visited the Oregon Donkey Sanctuary and it’s an extraordinary place. The owners, Jim and Rhonda, are so welcoming and it is clear that they are passionate about the donkeys and want visitors to learn about the species in general and about the individual donkeys. Jim was able to tell us about each donkey: where they came from, how and why they ended up at the sanctuary, their health issues, and each one’s personality and special needs.He made sure we knew how to approach the donkeys so all of us (people and donkeys) could enjoy the experience. The volunteers were friendly, knowledgeable, and loving towards the animals. The property is so beautiful and peaceful and it was a joy to watch the donkeys interact with each other. It was clear they appreciated the attention from their caregivers and visitors. I enjoyed the experience immensely and plan to visit again and bring friends with me so they can be entertained and learn about these delightful creatures. I can see how a visit with the donkeys could be very soothing.
