7/27/02)
Sweetie is a very drafty jennet with
excellent conformation and a beautiful round rear. Her name is very
fitting, but I would add "Shadow" as I am always tripping over her as she

gray. On September 9, Sweetie Pie gave
birth to a 20" perfect gray jennet named H.R. Katrina. Proud sire is 29

and a bit on the shy side. Trudy's sire is Short ASSets Total Eclipse and

20" at birth
Foal Coat: gray
Sire: Stoney Acres Salem - 33"
- black - NLP - no cross or stripe
Dam:
H.R. Buttercup - ____" - gray
Bobbi was born about 11 p.m. It was an
easy birth and mom had plenty of milk and Bobbi found it right away. We
were able to get a good night's sleep after this birth! Bobbi is a very
square and beautiful bundle of energy. Teeth are very good. We will
probably keep Bobbi as a future brood jennet.

19 1/2 " at birth
Foal Coat: black
Sire: Stoney Acres Salem - 33"
- black - NLP - no cross or stripe
Dam:
Short ASSets Millicent (aka Millie)
This is Millie's first foal -- and
she's a keeper! Millie has the same great confirmation as Mom and both of
her grandfathers (MGF Future Link and Short ASSets Star's War). Yes, this
little girl's pedigree reads like a "Who's Who" in the Donkey World.
Millie is an excellent mother. We enjoy Delilah's antics each and every
day.

Little Friends Enchilada |
|
November 2007 |
|
Date of Birth: 03/30/2005
21 1/2" at birth
Foal Coat: Dark Brown/Gray
& White Spotted (Tyger Spotting Pattern)
Sire: KMA Montana The
Sundance Kid - 33"
- black & white spotted

Dam:
Milomix Burrito - 32 1/4" - dark gray-dun
From the moment I saw the photo of The Sundance Kid
on Little Friend Ranch's
website, I knew I had to have a jennet foal of his! As soon as I saw
Enchilada, I knew I had to have her! She has not disappointed us. She
was an absolute love as a baby, and she is maturing into a very sweet and
pretty jennet. We are very anxious to breed her in 2008.

Date of Birth: 09/09/2005
20" at birth
Foal Coat: Gray
Sire: H.R.
Freedom - 29-1/2" black - NLP - no cross or stripe
Dam:
B-7 Sweetie Pie, 32-1/4", gray
842 ancestors per Pat Scanlan
Katrina was born to first-time
dad, H.R. Freedom and first-time mom, B-7 Sweetie Pie. What a super job
they did! This little girl is a whirlwind of activity and her mom has her
job cut out, just trying to keep up. Katrina weighed 25 lbs. at birth, and,
at barely 20", she is a very compact and filled out newborn. Teeth are
right-on (yes, she was born with teeth) and her legs and back are very
straight. Her chest looks nice and wide for a newborn. She's
definitely a keeper. Looking forward to breeding her to Stoney Acres Salem in a few
years.

Gardner's Lavita Sue |

Date of Birth: 05/26/2005
Foal Coat: Dark Brown
Sire: Sunset Acres Jet - 34"
- dark brown
Dam:
Gardner's Tinata Lynn - 32 1/4" - dark brown
We purchased Lavita Sue when
she was 3-1/2 months old (along with her dam, Tinata Lynn). I liked her as
a foal; I love as she matures. She is so very pretty and she has always
been very, very, overly friendly. She and Enchilada are best friends and we
will breed them about the same time so they foal near each other. Lavita
Sue has an impressive background which includes his sire, Sunset Acres Jet,
and his grandsire, Sunset Acres The Fireman. We are expecting an
exceptional baby when we breed her. |

At almost 2 years old, Mimosa is still as black as

girl. We will breed her to H.R. Freedom when she is three years old.

19 1/2" at birth
Foal Coat: black
Sire: Stoney Acres Salem - 33"
- black - NLP - no cross or stripe
Dam:
EA Santa Monica - 32 1/4" - dark brown
Monica and Salem have been "together" for 4 years --
with no pregnancy until this time! This little gem was well worth the
wait. She was only 19-1/2" at birth and weighed 18 pounds at one day old.
She is as black as they come, with a few white hairs on one side of her
forehead and a white muzzle. Mom is extremely protective (who can blame
her) and our little beauty is active and running circles around mom. We
will be anxious to see how this precious baby matures. |

Maria always has beautiful, square foals.
Sunshine is no exception. She is a joy to be around and always makes us
smile. Sunshine's name is very appropriate. |
