Pickles’ Story
The very first three donkeys we welcomed to Oscar’s Place in December 2020 were Goose, Pickles, and Shadow. Rescued from an auction by an organization in Southern California, All Seated in a Barn, they were just a few months old when they were brought to us. Tragically, their mothers had been lost in the slaughter pipeline.
Goose and Pickles became fast friends and were inseparable. They realized quickly that they were safe here and started to come into their own. Once Shadow settled in and got comfortable in her new home, she became close with Goose and Pickles as well.
The trio has become the Three Musketeers of Oscar’s Place. They play all day long, chasing each other in circles, and then collapse into a big cuddle puddle, legs crossed with heads on each other’s chests, sound asleep. They are the “poster children” of Oscar’s Place and will live out the rest of their lives here, free from the trauma that their mothers endured.
