The Joy of Gentling a Wild Donkey For The 1st Time!

Описание: Experience the heartwarming moment of petting a wild donkey for the first time! In this video, I share my aunts joyful encounter with a beautiful BLM burro, showcasing the power of positive reinforcement and gentle training methods. By using clicker training and keeping training sessions fun, She was able to build trust and create a special bond with this amazing animal. If you're interested in learning more about gentling wild donkeys and burros, or want to know how to train a BLM burro using positive reinforcement techniques, this video is for you. Join me, Mary Jo Enfield, as I share my passion for training wild burros and donkeys, and discover the joy of connecting with these incredible creatures.

Check out the play lists for these 7 or choose a playlist to see training for different topics.

If you are looking for full length videos check out the Mustang and Burro Comparison Series I am recording (at the request of a subscriber) all training sessions for “Doctor” and “Stein”. My hope is seeing how the training goes will help you in your own journey. We brought home 3 wilds on this trip, their names are Doctor, Frank, and Stein. 😃

❤️ ABOUT THIS CHANNEL❤️

My name is MaryJo and this is my experience as an everyday person learning how to train mustangs and wild Burros. The first donkey I ever got I did not even want, Shamus, came with a mule my husband purchased. Shamus did not know anything when we got him but…after a while I decided to try and train him. I had never trained an equine before and decided to try anyway. He is just a donkey right? Well I fell in love with this dude, I am so grateful this guy fell into my life and I had the courage to try to train him. Now Shamus goes on trail rides, has rode in AZ, ride in a parade, packed out hunting. He is one of the most AMAZING ANIMALS I HAVE EVER HAD!!! I am truly grateful for him!
