From Trainer Aspen Lyons & Haily Chitwood:
Day one of working with Merrilee!
Today I got to work with Merrilee as a part of the showdown! She is one of the donkeys that is included in the Dakota showdown that me and Haley are going to be working with.
Like maysilee we worked together today after maysilee, I did it that way for a reason hoping that merrilee would watch what we did and be more willing to do it. As I stepped into her pen she was of course nervous but listened great I started brushing her just assuring her that everything was alright and she was doing good. after that I sat down having her come to me and sniff my hand only working on touch as to not overload her senses
