Petunia Donkey lives at Casey's Safe Haven Holistic Horse Rescue and Sanctuary Maple Park, IL. Petunia was rescued from a situation where there were far too many animals living in undesirable conditions. Petunia was adopted from Casey's by Marc and Luis at Rustic Road Farm. Her new job was going to be to guard their sheep and goats from the coyotes, but unfortunately, Petunia did not care for shee
p and goats and let them know. So, it was decided that Petunia should return back to Casey's Safe Haven. Casey's has a herd of elderly ponies who were rescued from the pony ride facility where they spent most of their years "working the wheel", giving rides to little kids. When the ponies were no longer able to perform the work expected of them, they were discarded. Petunia, upon her return to Casey's, immediately decided to join the pony herd and took it upon herself to be their Guard Donkey, herding them, protecting them, and keeping them safe from coyotes.
