The original Wise Ass joined our staff in September of 2013. Thoughtful, kind, and helpful, she enjoys standing in the shade, munching on juniper trees, and origami.

A special donkey. She arrived with her mother, Trudy, at just six weeks old. This extremely smart and gentle donkey has stolen our hearts, but she's also the reason we have to lock the stall doors.

Our youngest craftsman was born right here, in the middle of a blizzard. He loves a good joke, peanuts, peppermint, and passing gas.

It’s not the size of the donkey in the fight…it’s the size of the fight in the donkey. You haven’t met tough until you’ve met Lily. She once chased a mountain lion up Mt. Fuji because it stole her favorite traffic cone.

The newest member of our staff, Leon, took some time to realize how nice it is to be brushed. He started in the shop in March of 2026. He's an Aquarius, enjoys hang gliding and loves apples.
