Arranbrook Stud practices a sound breeding philosophy.

With the limited bloodlines available within the UK we take great pride in the variety of our herd’s pedigrees.

 I have carefully researched the pedigree’s of our stock to assure of  no line breeding.

While linebreeding is a common practice in equines and canines we feel that line breeding is not required to improve the  Miniature Donkey.  Very few American breeders linebreed, those that do have extensive experience as breeders.  

To distinguish animals with no line breeding in their pedigree on our website you will see the notation: NLBP which stands for “No Line breeding in Pedigree”

   Winner of the 2 year old jack class and Reserve Champion jack in show at the Canadian MDE show at Red Deer, Alberta. 

He was used at Stud at the World Famous Circle C ranch in Canada before being exported to Ireland where he now stands.

His resultant first foal Circle C Larissa was the top priced foal/yearling at the 2006 Rocky Mountain Sale. 

Larissa went on to stand 2nd in her class at the Calgary Stampede World Miniature Donkey Show.

 Bridget arrived on Easter Sunday, guess I should really call her Easter Frost but its too corny for me!!

Bridget will not be a tall girl, she has her mothers big beautiful eyes, her Dam is my ideal stamp of a jennet, I adore her.

Her new Daughter is proving to be very correct and may be retained for my Herd.

I am lucky in that I am able to spend a great deal of time educating my foals, which is the fun part as far as I am concerned!

This means that my foals are super friendly, well handled and lead trained before they leave me.  

Each will be wormed, vaccinated, fully registered and have a passport as required by law.

 

I do not take foal deposits on unborn foals, preferring to match your requirements to the best of my ability.

We offer every help and assistance to new owners, your success is our success!

It is our intention to ensure 100% client satisfaction.

 We answer all enquiries with honesty and integrity and that is why we will never sell a Donkey unless we are certain it is right for the client.

We are happy to supply current photographs or DVD's on any of our Donkeys and welcome visitors to come and take a look around.

As responsible breeders it is our priority to ensure that all of our Donkeys go to loving, kind homes.

 

 

We proudly present our 2007 collection!

 

Below our last foal for the 2007 season.  Please study these photos carefully and you will see why we are delighted with the Quality of this years foals. Our breeding program is proving  to be as successful as we hoped.

We are confident that in our next foal crop starting March 2008, the Standard will continue!
