Meet Patrick

Before coming to the DSC in the Fall of 2021, Patrick lived on a farm in Central Ontario. Patrick was a well-loved pet but to due to the decline in the owner’s health they were no longer able to take care of him any longer.

He came to the DSC as a jack (an intact male donkey), so, soon after his arrival he was castrated. Because he had been a jack his whole life, he has shown aggressive behaviours towards other donkeys and thus requires specific care and management.

These days Patrick has progressed to the training Facility barn with the geldings. Often found by Luigi’s side .
