Donkeys are one of the most abused animals in the world specially in the Middle East because they are extremely docile and carry heavy loads.These are extraordinary women who dedicate their lives to save these animals.Thank you for your heart of gold.
True angels!
HIIIPOWER 000 you can’t just call everybody who criticizes a region or country a racist. I’m hoping that that was a joke or something.
Using them for work which is what they were bred for isn't abuse as long as they are well taken care of so let's not make blanket statements without any knowledge, yeah?
@@MESSI-fx1ob Of course you are from the region.......you got offended with the truth.
I love that comment that u made it means that u care and l love u for that 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰😎🤓😜😙😊😆😁
Josie must have been so so relieved to see her daughter escape the horror they were subjected to. I just wish she could have had more time being free. Poor Josie. Rest In Peace, beautiful girl
At least she had a few good years and passed away comfortably.
The penalty for animal cruelty needs to be made way more severe! Thank you to these people for going out of your way to help these neglected donkeys.
I soooo agree!!!
I agree and they should pay all the expenses to make these lovely walk and run again
ABSOLUTELY
Thank you for giving Josie the best in her final times. :-)
Mikey Mike Yes, Thank you 😊
@@hummingbird275 Cheers, It's nice to know that in her senior year(s) she got to run, play and spend time with her daughter in a better, healthier setting. :-)

@Hugo Adrian Wilkins you looking to eat them or something
Rest in peace Josie. May she live a wonderfull afterlife in donkey heaven!

Animals have no soul

"In loving memory of Josie" and my waterfalls began ಥ‿ಥ
If you can’t take care of an animal properly then you don’t deserve to own one!
😪😪😪😪😪😪😪

"Hi, Jenny, how you feeling?" **Starts to instantly run around in delight**
It is time to put those who abuse animals in Jail.
YESSS!!!
Yeahhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!
At the very least. Those who do physical abuse to animals should have the same physical abuse done to them. And then put them in jail....if they're still alive.
I think there is a much more appropriate place for people who do this to animals... just 6 short feet away.
Hell yeah
if I ever win the lottery iam buying a farm where animals can be free safe and loved just like this farm
I wish this all the time👍👍
I say the same thing! 💕
Can i join you in that?
There are lots of farm rescues, please find a local one near you and volunteer and more importantly DONATE!
No lottery needed, decide and make it happen
I rescued a little starving donkey and kept him with my horse for a year while he got fed up and well. After my elderly horse passed away, I gave him to a donkey rescue who immediately rehomed him with a girl donkey. My heart is so happy. God bless these great animal rescuers. Much love ❤❤❤
3:10 There's a lot of power in that little movement.Jennie brushing up on her mom to reassure her that she's there for her, comforted by her, loves her. Josie's little ear flick of happiness reassuring her daughter it's ok to run ahead and enjoy herself, and then Jennie bounding off. Animals are incredible, their language system is so perfectly tuned
Damn brightness of my phone is making my eye drip water
Me too
😅😅😅😅
Same :')
No doubt, I consider myself a tough dude. I'm glossy eyed with happiness. Thank you for your help!
@@SelfMadeCulture no prob
You people who rescue fill my soul with something I can't do myself, but knowing you are out in the world helping these deserving animals makes my heart sing. Thank you for your service to animals in need. You are the best!
**YOU GOT THAT RIGHT, MY FRIEND!!
@Bill of Rights We'll see in 2020 who supports Trump.
Once they got their hooves trimmed it must of been so much relief ❤
@@bonnieforman9700 Yeah, who needs a job, right? Certainly not lazyazz fcking Democrats!
Beautiful post.
RIP Josie Thank you for giving her and Jenny their life back to them. You do great work! God bless you and your animal family ❤️
I think Josie went peacefully and happily knowing her daughter was happy and healthy with a place she can call her forever home until Jenny can see her mother again
Seeing Jenny run is everything!
There are real angels on this earth. These two women are proof of that.
I’m so grateful to people who do this kind of work.
A HUGE thank you to all involved! ❤️🙏 Rest easy Josie 😥💕 I'm glad your final years were happy!
"Hi, Jenny. How ya feeling?" *runs away*
That was great!
Now Josie can run, too. ❤
She died recently tho
Y9 RuNNa they mean she can run in heaven
@@CC-ok2kt oh
This comment made me tear up. You are right ❣️
Seeing them run around in the grass broke my heart. Y'all are awesome for doing what you do.
May Josie rest in peace, I'm glad she passed away with you guys living a happy healthy life, knowing that everything was great.
I think the people that hit the dislike button just had to many tears in there eyes and they could not see the like button and did not notice
@JACK IS VERY EPIC AND CHILL Maybe they mean it as they dislike how the donkeys were?
too*
You can dislike a video based on how the donkeys were treated? I’ve given up trying to figure out the like and dislike buttons. Not sure of their purpose in the first place.
Best comment of the day💖
Why do people keep posting comments like this just stop
It's amazing how patient they are as he's cutting their hooves. They must know they're trying to help 🌹
Of course they know. They have eyes. They're donkeys not dipshits.
@@conniewolf7300 I thought that's what they used sometimes to keep them from spooking

I hope Jennie knows how much her mama loved her. I can't imagine watching this videos once I have kids!!!! 50 times more emotional
Love this!! So sorry you lost Josie, but how wonderful she and Jenny could heal together for a time. Go Jenny go!
Something should be done to people that abuse any innocent animal. I'm glad there are people like you.
Jaki Mathews they should be punished for being "ass" holes. sorry i just had to
do you eat meat
Make them have their toe nails grow out and make their teeth rot out then make them live in their one poop
The onions are strong in here..love this story!
Stop crying u emotional lowlife bastard

Rayvon Ali, What are you, five? Temper tantrum much? Your poor family. It’s obvious you don’t have any real friends. So sad. Pitiful really. All on you though.
Rayvon Ali 😂😂you are really one of the most corniest fools alive right now and the corniest is real😭😭
Thank you so much for saving this sweet Mama & baby (and all the others)! I'm sorry that Josie didn't have more happy & safe time to spend with Jenny. But the time she had was so well deserved. ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️
Seeing Jenny run is amazing to see. I wish Josie had a longer time to be able to use her legs and run. Rest in peace Josie. Rip Josie 🙏 Have a good life Jenny.
And contrary to what most people think they are not dumb!
They only way someone could think they're dumb, is never having meet one.
For me donkeys are the cuter horses ;-)
kate kay Just stubborn as hell. And rebellious
Yeah, donkeys are highly intelligent, right up there with chimps and dolphins.
kate kay they’ve got too much intelligence. Just enough to make your life hell if they want to
I have had Donkeys in my life for the past 25 years, and I love them all, so dearly. As I type this comment, I am wiping the tears from my eyes. Yes, they have 'stolen' my heart, but I am happy to share it with them :) . Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for the love and kindness that you have shown these innocent, gentle, companions!
This is just heartbreaking but at the same time, a huge relief to see them happy.
God bless you for stepping to rescue them. It just broke my heart to see them at their worst. I will never understand those people who allow their animals to suffer in such conditions. They must have stone where their heart should be.
It's always great to see people helping animals n even better to see their great transformation.. May god bless you all who are there to save animals from cruelty.
Animals are living trash we don't need them to live only for food and more of theyre stupid body for material and there are worthless for one hahahahahahah
Yes! God bless everyone who is kind to animals!
@@Zoeyss_life there is no god shut up about it u annoying primitive god believer and those who are kind are blind with they pathetic emotional.... weaklings
Rayvon Ali, English isn’t your first language is it?
If god was real do you really think he would bless someone because you said so 😐
I feel so bad for animals with over grown hooves. It looks really painful!
how do the wild animals deal with it?
@@joshuadickson4130 They travel long distances and it's naturally kept in check by walking a lot on rough terrain that grinds it down. Farm animals will spend most of their time in a small space.
@@addiey9312 thank you i was looking for this answer
Some British pony's were found with equally overgrown hoofs because they were living in a literal swap without the necessary abrasive ground to keep their hoofs trim.
@@joshuadickson4130 Google it. Do you not know how to do simple basic research?
What a heartwarming story. These cute little creatures are blessed as well as you guys. Thankyou for doing this
What an amazing rescue, these ladies love what they do you can tell by their enthusiasm. Thank you for rescuing these wonderful animals.
I can’t imagine the pain and depression these animals went through...the hopelessness. I really dislike people who treat animals this way. They have and think no bad things unlike humans. Why do we treat them so? These people are amazing for rescuing!!
The most dangerous animals on Earth are some humans. I'm so happy you rescuers are angels. Sweet little ones!
Sleep sweet, Josie. You did a magnificent job with Jenny. Beautiful girls. May they live long and happy lives.
It must be hard to walk around with such a big heart. you guys are wonderful!
*Love from Maryland!❤️... this farm is not far from me, I use to work there when I was 17...*
Tyler Snyder Awesome
Where in Maryland?
I live in Maryland too! I love going to the farms and the markets.
That is so awesome! Good for you!!
@@mariafulton1213a few states South of New York if you knew w where that is.
Me whenever I see a donkey anywhere: DONKEH!
I don't quite know why I keep watching these Dodo video's, I always end up bawling with tears. In a good way, I suppose. One thing that always lingers is my anger at those who harm or neglect animals and my appreciation for those who rescue and love them.
So great of you to help these babies...!! So glad Josie got to enjoy her lest few years...!!! Sorry for their negative past..!! Your donkey reserve looks like a wonderful place...!! 💕💕💕💕 Happy for Jenny and all the others as well 😘😘😘
I love donkies! I use to be a caregiver on a ranch that had 7 donkies, the "7 dwarfs" and by the time I left there were 11. They were forming their own baseball team! 🐴
Yes! Watch out Harlem Globetrotters!
Donkeys are just the best, such beautiful animals ❤
it makes me sad knowing there is ppeople that don't care about animals, but it makes me happy knowing that there is people that help them. ♥
This story hit ever level of emotion one will feel when watching. God bless this rescue organization.
I grew up spending time on my aunt and uncles farm, and they had 2 donkeys. I also struggled with depression, anxiety, and bipolar. I have my fondest memories of calm, loving hours connecting with those donkeys on a non-verbal yet supportive and understanding level that I have yet to discover as an adult. This video made me cry.
Hey Ellen, I would like to ask a question.
Thomas Whoer yes?
@@e701 Can we know each other, I am also an animal and I would like to share ideas with you here too.
@@e701 I mean can we be friends?
@@e701 I am an Engineer from south korea and I am a widower. Will be glad to talk with you.
Shame on whoever allowed those two beautiful Donkey's hooves to get in such horrific condition!! God bless this ( and every) rescue, for saving these beautiful animals lives!! ❤
Josie finally had the loved she deserved. Compassion is the biggest gift to give anyone 🥰♥️🐾
God bless you for freeing angels Josie & Jenny from the pain & suffering of their former life, for comforting & loving them & for giving Josie peace in her heart, knowing her precious Jenny is safe, happy, free & loved. May you rest in joyful, comforting peace dear beautiful Josie girl. You too are forever loved.💕💕💕
I so hope you sued the heck out of the people who mistreated them for 20 years! Thank you for all that you do for Donkeys!
Just thank Christ there’s good people like this in the world !! Imagine not having them ... thanks guys
World is lacking good people, because all are going one sided and politics UGH! Politics! 🙄 We need to understand each other, uniting all people with different religions and demolish the evil together, Cuz Satan wants bad things to happen.
KHRN Star agreed!
Thank Christ? What did he do besides sit there watching their hooves growing longer and longer and doing nothing? No, I'll thank the good people in this video and elsewhere who actually take action when they see something like this.
Jamie van Brewen, don’t beat down a religion, it’s what they believe. I don’t understand it but at least they aren’t talking bad about the animal, this comment isn’t supposed to be mean or anything, I hope you don’t take it that way friend.
@@Guitcad1 Its easy to shift blame to God for "not doing anything". Why don't humans have a system in place that severely punishes animal abusers, or any abusers for that matter? What area in society is broken that leads to people to commit such crimes? There are some crimes that can put people on death row yet those crimes continue to be committed, even though people know the consequences. We live in a world where many people call evil things good and good things evil. No wonder there are people around that are abusers. The change needed in the world is in our hands but it seems most people are just happy to live in their own little world instead of putting in the effort to effect change.
Such beautiful souls God bless you guys for loving and keeping all these animals safe
Donkey's are probably the coolest animal in the world,
legit cried :)
Way to own up to a realism instead of making a joke out of it. Kudos! (Oh and I was right there with you!)
I had to skip over the begining, the overgrown hooves is one of the most heartbreaking thing to see, and to think about, I just can't stand the fact that anyone could let that happen, or look away
you should look at my toes.
@@edmundooliver7584 LOL gross, do you have tingers?
@@dafeef5555 EW why u had to call them that lmaoooo
I hear you. Two of mine arrived with overgrown hooves but not as severe as those by any stretch of imagination. Lovely to see that one of them has a good life now and the other one was loved when she died. Insta: donkeys_of_thor
Same here, I am too softish
This video couldn't have come at a better time. I was an emotional disaster missing my dog, this had me standing here with a huge stupid grin on my face. Who knew donkeys were such adorable goofballs? ❤️
IN MY VIEW I was shocked to see Jenny and Josie's hooves so deformed. You are lovely for rescuing them.. Thank you.
😢 I love you all so much! Thank you for giving them the love and life they deserve! You guys rock! 💙❤️💙❤️✌️✊
I was crying as I watched this! People who neglect animals like this should be made to work at places that rescue them and see how their own neglect has almost ruined the animal’s life! Thank God for the lovely people like these ladies who obviously adore their little friends and who take joy in their blooming, new personalities! I so wish I was young and active enough to do this kind of work. But just seeing your videos warms my heart soooo much! Good onya ladies and keep doing your fantastic work!❤️🙏🏻🥲
Running and playing...that was a beautiful sight. They do have a lot of personality! Rip sweet Josie🙏🏻
I love these people they are so nice
There are fools and u are a one too

@@daryeusford9696 I'm fine I don't think or take drugs like u my friend
Rayvon Ali, “I don’t think...” Yup, you’re right about that, you don’t think, doesn’t seem like there is much of a capacity for it in that little noggin of yours. Too funny.
Rayvon Ali I knew you was on something
Poor babies. Thank you for what you do. My dad had mules, so this is touching for me. It is making me cry. God bless these babies and you all, too.
I grew up with a donkey called Bracken and ever since they are my favourite animals - so beautiful.
ever thought that Mama held on, for as long as you can with a broken Soul, JUST to see her baba grow & make new friends & a new family?.....a broken Heart is easy to fix, takes time, paitence, understanding, compassion & Love.....a broken Soul....if caught soon enough, then yes, it can heal, it will scar, oh how it will scar but, better than fully broken.....its a sad tale when someones Soul breaks too much.....😯 xxx glad baba had at least some time, running about free & happy with mama xxx
Momma Josie just needed to make sure Jose was going to be ok. GOD bless her and y'all.
I've never seen something as cute as a field full of happy donkies running amok. :D so much beauty. Thank you so much for all you do to bring awareness to all these incredible rescue organizations. I am so happy that those donkies were rescued. Seeing them heal and run again made my heart feel full. God bless.
Neither have I, except every equine ever!
Many people are starting up "hobby" or "rescue farms" as a way of giving these sweet, deserving animals and second shot at life. God bless anyone with the money to do this. It must be so rewarding.
These women are lifesavers. Beautiful.
My condolences for Josie. Thank you.
I HATE PEOPLE THAT ABUSE ANIMALS HATE HATE HATE Thank-you for saving these animals You are amazing people 💜
*Thankfully, Josie got to see her daughter happy and thriving, and that she was finally loved and cared for herself. God Bless all of you !!!*
What you guys are doing for these lovely donkeys makes my heart so warm!
Poor babies … awfully sad. THANK YOU for saving them.

Hey Melinda, how you?
Donkeys were part of my childhood in rural Ireland, they were a necessity as were horses, a good farmer always looked after his animals as they were his livelihood. RIP Grandad. PS respect to these people, excellent work.
Thank you for helping those beautiful donkeys.
I love Donkeys 🥰
I love you guys so much, thank you for being what’s right in the world.
