“Two Awards In One Week Shine On and WordPress Family Award”
Friends of the Donkey Whisperer Farm
I have been blogging for three years now, I am grateful to each and every one of you who take the time to read my blog. Some of you read each and every post I add to my blog in my wildest dreams I never imagined how wonderful blogging would make me feel especially since I am disabled and not able to work anymore. I worked from the time I was sixteen years old and well I guess you could say I find purpose in working, my blog has become like a job for me as it takes time, effort and most importantly prayer.
Blogging is a way for me to stay creative, use my brain muscle and stay connected to our fragile world via your life story and your blogs. I find blog news to be much better than the television news.
Some of you have reached out to me and we have exchanged some very personal things we share in this thing called life. Perhaps one day I will write a book about my life but for now I share what I can to help inspire, give hope and remind each one of you that GOD in Jesus Christ name is real. GOD creates miracles today, I know as I am a miracle, I am a child of Jesus Christ and so are you. JESUS loves all of his children each and every one of us.
I received two awards this week; WordPress Family from Connective Tissue Disorder Ms. Kati and Shine On Award from PIG LOVE the adventures of Bacon and Friends blog.
. 
Now for a description of the award in the words of the Creator Of The Award:
It is my honor to start this award.” from Shaun @ http://prayingforoneday.wordpress.com/
This is an award for everyone who is part of the “WordPress Family” I started this award on the basis that the WordPress family has taken me in, and showed me love and a caring side only WordPress can show. The way people take a second to be nice, to answer a question and not make things a competition amazes me here. I know I have been given many awards, but I wanted to leave my own legacy on here by creating my own award, as many have done before. This represents “Family” we never meet, but are there for us as family.
I love awards to add to my blog as they remind me that what I am doing is important as my blog affects people, animals, our environment and most of all I pray I am pleasing Jesus Christ my Lord and Savior. I am a child of GOD and so are you! 
I’m honored to say that my friend and blogger Katie (Connective Tissue Disorder blog) has nominated me for the “WordPress Family Award”. I particularly like and understand the essence of this award because so many of my fellow bloggers have become like family to me. I am really honored to be nominated for this blog with all the blogs in WordPress and I am grateful to have met Katie she is an inspiration.

Advocates Need Help to Stop Donkey Roping
Source: by Rhonda and Laura Stock from Donkeys Deserve Dignity
Donkey roping is a cruel and completely unnecessary “sport.”
It has come to our attention via the poster shown that a donkey roping event is scheduled for May 25 and 26 in Welch, OK. We stopped ropings in Eden, TX and Van Horne, TX last year. Please send letters and call to get this one stopped too!
We stopped this before we can do it again! Please re-blog and start taking action to say NO TO DONKEY ROPING. GOD bless you and your family two and four-legged! Melody

Gentlemen,
Subj: Donkey Roping Event to be held on May 25th and 26th, 2013.
I study equine behavioral science extensively under the Parelli home study program. I have personally owned a Mammoth donkey and mini donkey along with my horse for six years now, I would like to share with you how sensitive and smart the donkey is. I am the voice for the donkey as they have no voice.
Are you aware that donkeys are indeed smart, sensitive and a lovey equine?
Are you aware the donkey never forgets anything and is very intelligent? Donkeys that are not abused are more like a black lab than a horse, they love their butt rubbed, hugs, kisses and kind words. Placing donkeys in this abusive and traumatic environment is abuse there is no other word for this than abuse this is not entertainment, this is abuse.
Please consider the cry of these magnificent and highly social and intelligent donkeys to not abuse them for money. Donkeys are much different from the horse in the respect that when under deep stress they freeze and do not move. Cows will run out the shoot but donkeys freeze thus the need to use the cow shocker on them. These traumatized donkeys can have fatal consequences for a few minutes of Cowboy fun and the greed of money if they survive they will more than likely have permanent Post Traumatic Stress (PTSD) and not be able to fit into the human social world ever again.
I am respectfully asking that you stop this event and do not use donkeys for this event.
Respectfully,
Melody Johnson

Did You Know The Mammoth Donkey Is The Biggest Donkey?
I found this article and had to share it “The Mammoth Donkey Is The Biggest Ass In America” I would like to add one more comment to this, we do not call our donkeys an ass ever. Around the Donkey Whisperer Farm the word Ass is reserved for the special two-legged human of the world, we think it don’t say it :}
Here is the history of the American Mammoth Donkey - Gifts to President George Washington from the President Of Spain. Enjoy!
GOD bless you and your family two and four-legged!

Hard Working Mules Clearing The Trails Of The Olympic Mountains
Friends of the Donkey Whisperer Farm
Finally we received some really nice weather in the Pacific Northwest, Western Washington 70′s. My husband took me for a drive last weekend to see the Olympic Mountains we saw a beautiful waterfall and Crescent Lake it was a wonderful day. “GOD gave me a big surprise as we drove around the bend I saw a horse corral and I thought I saw a horse pen for people who camp with their horses and trail ride, oh how I miss trail riding.”
As we drove up to take a look this is what I saw!
Notice the two black Mammoth mules standing together in the background GOD is amazing!!!!
GOD bless you and your family two and four-legged!

It's only a little treat...right?
Before you give your adorable pooch or cuddly kitty another bit of human food, take a look at this graphic that explains the significance of that 'harmless' little treat. This is one of the ways our pets gain weight so quickly without us knowing why. To us it's just one chip, but to them, it's a LOT more.
Animals Mourn The Loss Of A Companion
My husband had to drive the 5th wheel home a six-hour drive without me, our three dogs were thinking the whole time he left me behind go back!
What started out as a trip with our dogs in our 5th wheel to visit friends turned out to be a nightmare as I almost died in a motor vehicle accident three years ago while riding as a passenger. Select GOD Created A Miracle For Me to read more. The anxiety built up so bad for them they could not eat for days. Finally after twelve days in the trauma hospital I was able to come home and to this day my big dog Sampson has anxiety when I leave the house for more than a few hours. He runs to the window looking and barking to see if I am coming home. Animals are very intelligent and we must never forget this.
Select When Animals Mourn Death
Select Natural Wonder Pets
Rocket Man!
We have a couple of close friends who work as care takers on a Donkey Farm they have told us that when a Donkey dies on the farm they let the companion donkeys smell and touch the dead body to help with the healing process. ”Just like a child that does not understand what death is animals need closure too.”
GOD bless you and your family two and four-legged!
