What are you up to on this fabulous Friday? Maybe you’ll be able to take a walk in nature, cuddle a pup, or another pet, or a partner or a friend. Maybe you’ll be able to take some time for yourself to read a book, or binge watch a tv series. Maybe you’ll be hard at work, keeping the wheels of industry or care or the NHS turning. Whatever it is that you’ll be up to, try and take some time for you. Try to top up your happy-batteries, however that works for you.
Here are some little happy-battery topper uppers for you. Show us your happy-battery topper uppers!

We are thinking about teeth on this thoughtful Thursday. Our wonderful vet Annabel came out on Tuesday to do dental exams and treatment on all 6 of our donks. This is something that needs doing every year, and more often if there are any signs of teeth trouble.
Donkey teeth keep growing throughout their lives. In the wild they are kept worn down by the tough fibrous diet available. In domestic donkeys you need to make sure that the teeth wear evenly. If you get an overgrowth on one side of a rear molar over time it will prevent the full sideways motion of the lower jaw, leading to more overgrowth, sharp edges and a donkey in pain.
Thankfully all of ours were given a clean bill of dental health after thorough exams and a bit of rasping.
We thought we would share some photos of the process. Please don't be alarmed by the equipment being used. A metal gag is used to open the donkey's mouth and hold it open so the vet can safely put her entire hand into the mouth. If the donkey becomes distressed by the process we give them a light sedation to ensure that they are stressed as little as possible.
Thank you Stoven Hall Veterinary and Rehabilitation Centre for being fabulous vets.

Are Saffy’s teeth as bad as mine?? I bet she doesn’t have dentures 🤣😘
I love watching the dentist working with our horses and ponies. They aren't bothered by it, in fact I'm sure they enjoy it id the relaxed botton lip is anything to go by 🧡
Why mask?

Welcome to a pretty terrific Tuesday from Minidonk HQ! We have got so much happening here and it's all good! Our wonderful vet Annabel is coming to do a mammoth dentistry session. It will be Jack's first time, but the other are all old hands. We may have to run to the shops for cake for the hoomans though! We have got a magazine interview this morning, all about our work, and then we are being filmed for something rather special on Friday - we'll tell you all about that when we can!
We have got a special treat coming up for those with romance in their hearts 😍🥰😘 more on that to follow.....

It’s been a bit of a rollercoaster couple of days at Minidonk HQ. MD has gone down with her first bug in 2 years. Felt quite rough and started coughing. Got a PCR test - brilliant service, huge thanks to all the staff there running such a smooth and efficient and friendly service. Thankfully negative, which means that she will be heading off up north to see her family, for the first time in 2 years! Head of Poo thinks he will be in charge for the weekend. Head of Security is a bit weird at the moment so can’t really be relied on (we think he has been getting at Gordon’s catnip Dreamies). Gordon, Head of Rodent Control, will be taking over the MD’s sleeping duties (upstairs in the warm, on the pillow next to Head of Poo). And Head of No One Knows What will be picking the rest of the MD’s duties for the weekend………. Wish them all luck with that!
Have a fantastic break
