About Our Donkey Encounters

---

NOTE:  In 2026 Donkey Encounters are selling out very quickly.   It is recommended that you schedule early to secure your spot.  

Create memories with your family and/or friends as you spend  an hour and a half with Wilbur, Waylon and Oliver at The White Dog Farm. 

You will start in the barn with a short safety briefing so that you can be safe as you interact with the donkeys and so that  the donkeys can also be safe.  

Then you will meet each of our donkeys and learn a bit about them along with some general education about donkeys. 

From there you will enter the paddock with the donkeys and sit at eye level with them so you can receive those amazing donkey hugs, pet them, watch their antics.  This is where the magic happens.

You may also learn to halter and tie the donkeys and brush them,  Weather permitting you can lead them on a supervised walk around out property.  

We provide you with treats to feed the donkeys if you like.

Or you can choose to spend your time with the donkeys just sitting quietly with them.  Its your time and you can choose how to spend it.

Donkey Encounters are listed on our Eventbrite page and also by appointment.  We recommend checking the weather forecast and choosing a day that looks good, then contact us to set up a time.   Any time after 11am is workable but we recommend late afternoon for the best time of day and the closer to sunset, the better.  

Please wear closed toed shoes.  Flip flops are not allowed due to safety concerns.

Please do not bring your dog(s).  We love your dogs but our donkeys may not. 

Cost:  $30/person for 1.5 hours
