I'm a new owner of 2 mini donkeys and have a lot of questions. I did a personal consultation with Melody Johnson and she is awesome! She is kind, patient, caring and delightful to talk to. She is so passionate and knowledgeable when it comes to all things donkey and she genuinely wants to make our relationships with our donkeys the best they can be. She spent a great deal of time answering my questions and concerns via email before the personal consultation. There was so much to talk about that the time went over on the consultation but Melody continued to consult with me until she had addressed all of my concerns. I WILL consult with her again in the future as my journey with my new little boys continues. She is a wonderful resource and I am so grateful to have found her. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Plus, all of the "Donkey Whisperer" training tools and products are absolutely amazing and top of the line.

Just received my 4th Donkey Whisperer halter. These are the only one I use. This custom fit is perfect! These will last for many years and are well made with quality materials. Love them!

My beautiful donkey looks radiant in purple and responds much better to her rope halter than a standard halter! We went on a lovely walk yesterday and she stopped much less and did not feel like she needed to pull like she typically would to graze. She was focused and all business!
Loved working with Melody on a blanket for my donkey. She spent a lot of time helping me find the right size. Ultimately, she told me when we could not find the right size, but she is hoping to work on getting one made in the future. Also love the Kennsington blankets that Melody sells for miniature donkeys. They fit nice and snug and are of great quality. I got one for another miniature donkey and we love it!

I purchased three soft yacht rope halters for my standard donkeys and I love them 💖 They are very good quality and fit much, much better than something made for a horse! This is the new rescue donkey I just got a couple days ago and she looks great in the purple.

I have purchased two vides, Donkey 101 and 102, as well as two of the standard donkey halters and stick with string. The videos are absolutely amazing in helping me work with my donkeys, giving good sound training advice and helping me manage my expectations and do the best for my donks. The halters are top of the line quality - sturdy and well built. The lead rope is thick and soft and feels wonderful in my hands. The training stick is very well constructed and built to last. I love everything about Donkey Whisperer Farm and love Melody's sensible approach to training.
We purchased two halters (per recommendation from our local horse trainer). Came back for the videos right away and was impressed with the results I achieved. Wished I had purchased them sooner! The video instruction gave me the confidence I needed to work successfully with our two mini donkeys.

We have order 4 halters from The Donkey whisper farm including one specially made for one of the babies. Both the halter and the leads are really well made, easy to handle and the lead is very comfortable to work with. I would recommend this for any horse or donkey lover.

I recently received a ‘On donkey time’ metal sign and a standard donkey halter. The quality and craftsmanship of both are remarkable. I look forward to buying additional products as well as instructional videos. Thanks Melody!

Absolute best customer service. I received quick confirmation and shipping. These are the softest, yet sturdiest, halters I have tried. The quality is such that I know it will last a long time. I love the softness of the lead and the unique clip. HIGHLY RECOMMEND for your burros/donkeys.

Melody and Scott are beautiful human beings who have created the most lovely farm for these adorable and wonderful Donkeys. Melody has a huge heart to pass on her vast knowledge of Donkeys, by teaching others to care properly for their Donkeys every need. I can't recommend Melody Johnson highly enough to anyone who is a caregiver for one or more Donkeys. ❤

Melody was wonderful prior to us purchasing, one of the donks has a larger head and is difficult to fit but Melody helped find the best solution. The halters make it much easier to walk our boys.
I purchased the On Donkey Time Metal Art Sign and I Love It, so very well made! Every Donkey Owner should have one!❤️

I love my new custom sized halter from Donkey Whisperer Farm, it fits my small standard donkey Daisy perfectly. The first halter I purchased was a little bit too big, but Melody was very easy to work with and the exchange went smoothly. I also have purchased the "Donkey 101" videos and they have made all the difference in my relationship with Daisy. I'm kind-of embarrassed to admit that I was a intimidated by her at first (she is a young, extrovert) but after working with her like the videos instructed we are really beginning to trust each other. Looking forward to continued work with Melody in hopes that someday Daisy will be a partner in my Life Coach practice. She brings a smile of joy to everyone who meets her.
Can't say enough good stuff about Donkey Whisperer Farms!

The training halter for my new Standard size donkey is excellent quality and fit great! Henry didn't mind it being on and we actually had a nice walk. Training videos are very helpful also.
