They have been together for about three weeks and are getting along famously.
They both seem to enjoy visiting with the horses next door. Bernard is training them to scratch his butt through the fence.
Bernard is quite the precocious little donkey. He insisted on helping Don walk Ellsworth to the barn and took matters into his own
See if you can top this, George and Alan.

Now that is way too cute!
Just plain cute those guys!
Best always, Sandra
These two are precious. I love one leading the other. It must be so gratifying to have rescued this little guy. I'm sure he can't believe his good fortune.
That Bernard is such a cutie-patootie! It's great to see those two getting along so well. AND to see Ellsworth living in such a wonderful new home!
My very first thought -- how else would the lead-holding be useful? Precocious little guy!
Oh man! OK, George and Alan ARE in trouble here... and I love that Ellsworth is just going along for the ride. Does your friend have a blog? I'd love to see more pics of these guys. Thanks for sharing, they are just adorable.
adorable if i had seen them first i might... MIGHT love them as much as george and alan...(these two come a really close second :) but... G& A man they just are top burros :)
Boy oh boy. Your site is a guaranteed smile for the day along with a few tears. (Can't help the tears, I'm one of those people that cries at the good stuff and cries at the bad stuff too.) You and your friends are living the good life.
That is SO cute!
I feel pretty mushy, too, Lizzy. Ellsworth looks better to me. They obviously are best friends now. What a wonderful sight to see. Thank you!!
George and Alan are much closer to being peers--They would have to do a pas de deux or something fantabulous. It's obvious who is top burro at this house!
How cute!
ooooooo....the challenge is on! Sure put a smile on my face this mornin'!
That is so stinkin' cute! What buddies they are! I so want a pair of those big ears around my farm!
I also wanted to add your stories and pictures always make me smile. Thank you!
Oh. My. God. Isn't that just the most precious thing in the world? Ellsworth must love havin' his little buddy, even if Little Buddy's leadin' him around by the nose!
This makes my heart so happy! What a lucky boy Ellsworth is to have been rescued by such wonderful people! As always Linda, your pics are fabulous. Thanks for sharing these happy boys with us...
I think Bernard was doing his best to impress his Aunt Linda. ;) You should have seen him go straight to her when she arrived!
Don't let Justina fool you; she's been practicing this maneuver with the boys for days in anticipation of your visit!
Oh my God, how can you stand the cuteness? I'd just want to camp out there with them; forget work!
Donkey see, donkey do!
Alright, that's IT. Where can I get one of these balls of cuteness?
OMG that is stinkin cute!
LOLOL I just went through all your burro posts. Your donkeys are too cute!!! And you're right - we are leading parallel lives, right down to the Rubbermaid cart I've had for 14 years and wouldn't give up for anything. Well, maybe a couple more donkeys. ; )
And now I obviously need to go find mine some toys - and teach them to ring our bell (though mine is a sheep rather than a donkey). Too funny. Thanks for the laughs and for saying hi on my blog. Oh, that reminds me - your cat on a hot tin roof looks exactly like our Mr. Midnight in the first photo. Looking forward to reading more and seeing what else we have in common. Love your sense of humor.
