If anyone wants to see a picture of Jack, check out my blog, May 18 entry.

I labeled that first picture, Jordan loves Jack.  And she does...and as 
you might have guessed, yes, I'd love to have something for Jordan to 
ride, bond with, and care for, and she has always liked Jack
You can see him in the background of other pictures.
He almost looks like a bay in those pics...not gray, but I can tell you 
that in the fall he looks more black than anything.
The farrier likes him and considers him to be a black donkey.
I have two better pictures of Jack that were taken about a year ago.  I 
can send them to who ever would like to see them, and I would appreciate 
comments.  He doesn't look malnourished or obese to me, but most of the 
time, he could use some grooming.

If I spend time grooming Jack, will he bond with me the way a dog does, 
even at his age?  Is there a way to a donkey's heart?

Marie, Lynda, I'm sending you guys pictures...tell me what you think
