SCORYBREK WESTIES

and Registered Miniature Donkeys

Scorybrek Wiggy and Scorybrek Chewy are young jennets, born in August, 2004. They are  outgoing gentle babes who love children and Westies.  Wiggy is out of Sheena and Chewy's dam is Bella (see below). Both are sired by my jack, Target.  The  parents live at Scorybrek Farm.  Knitted hat is made of Shetland wool imported by She Ewe Knits Design,  from the Shetland Islands, contact Anne at www.sheeweknits.com for wool and pattern and other Shetland designs.  She also designs Shetland sweaters for Westies.

This candid picture of Bella and her foal, Chewy was taken by contributing editor of PhotoLife magazine, Peter Burian, and truly captures the love and protectiveness of mother for her baby. It was taken from the road and generously made available to me by Peter. Also taken by Peter is the one below.   pburian@sympatico.ca

Sheena and her foal, Wiggy are inseparable. Wiggy is two days older than Chewy and has outstanding conformation.

As I read, A Donkey in the Meadow by Derek Tangye, I recall his saying that donkeys are Biblical creatures with the cross on their back. When I enter the barn to say good night to mine I am reminded of this passage from the book:  Derek, the author, and his wife, Jeannie are going into the barn on a Christmas eve to share mincemeat pies with their donkeys.  Donkeys that have given them so many headaches because of their antics and so much pleasure. :   "There was a gentle sound as they shifted their feet on the cobblestones, and I was aware too of the musty scent of their coats.  Ageless simplicity, laughed at, beaten, obstinately maintaining their individuality; here indeed was a moment when there was a communication with the past.  Struggle, self sacrifice, integrity, loyalty; how was it that the basic virtues, the proven talisman of man's true happiness, was being lost in the rush of material progress?"
