I know I have a funny name, but my past has been anything but humorous, unfortunately. My name is Donkey, and I'm a 4-year-old male St. Bernard/Shepherd mix. Sadly, my original owner passed away and I then found myself at an animal shelter. I was adopted, but those people didn't know much about my breed and were concerned about me chasing wildlife, so I was kept on a leash all the time and not allowed to do my job which is to guard and protect my home and family. It was not a good life for me, and I'm hoping that I can find a very different, loving home through BDHP! After all, I'm just a very, very sweet boy who loves to play with my toys and be loved on! I weigh around 130 pounds, I'm house-trained and leash-trained on a harness, and I know the "sit" command. I'm good with dogs and kids and I'm just looking for a home that will return all the love I have to give. Could that be yours?To see the most up to date adoption status of this dog please visit
