Watch Gus Grow!

Gus is a minaiture donkey.  He came to Sand Hill Stable after he was rejected by his mother at a week old.  He was born September 9, 2010.  He has a minature horse friend and mentor named Silverado.  Silverado is owned by Marvin and Lynn Bowers of Heart of Gold Minis (http://heartgoldminis.tripod.com/index.html).

    Gus is about 9 months old here and has definitely gotten over his fear of Jill.  He now chases her around!  We had just started clipping Jill in this video.  It took a few days to get the job done.

    Dusty just arrived at the farm.  Here we are introducing Gus to Dusty.  Gus was not too thrilled about meeting Dusty.   It took a few days for Gus to get used to having to get used to having Dusty around.

    Gus is officially one year old!  He is shown here hanging out with his buddy Dusty.
