Giorgio adores all the fuss and attention

We think you’ll all agree that Giorgio Armani is a very handsome lad. Giorgio was his original name and he is 20 years old. Once a working donkey, he had later been taken on by a lady as a pet and friend to her rescue horse. Unfortunately her circumstances changed and she had to find new homes for both animals and contacted us asking if we could take Giorgio as she had found a home for her horse.

He’s a wonderful, calm natured donkey who adores as much fuss and attention as he can get. Once out of New Arrivals, he moved to one of our loving Holding Bases. Being the laid back chap that he is, once out of the trailer, he inspected the paddock and proceeded to lie down and roll – a firm sign that he’s settled! The soil at this Holding Base is almost white though, so he looked like he had been covered in talcum powder when he got up.

And if you’re wondering why he is called Giorgio Armani, we’ve got so many George’s, Georgio’s and Yiorgos’, we were getting very confused so surnames are really helpful.
