Breeding Donkeys for Show, Training, and Companionship

L'Lass was originally started by three sisters . The sisters showed their animals at the Miniature Donkey Extravaganza in Red Deer, at Long Ears Days in Stettler and at the Calgary Stampede Miniature Donkey Showcase. They have participated in many community events including live nativity scenes, Easter Sunday church services and "beer burros" at weddings. 

 

The donkeys were always on the Jones family farm, so as time went on, it has become a part of a multi-generational mixed farming operation Northeast of Calgary, Alberta, Canada. Jones Hereford Ranches was established in 1903. Today we raise commercial cattle as well as produce crops of mainly barley, wheat, canola and peas, with some "experiments" thrown in once in a while! Allen & Shanna Jones run the operation along with their sons, Barret & Harlen, who are fifth generation on this land.

 

At L'Lass Miniature Donkeys, we are dedicated to breeding quality miniature Mediterranean donkeys. We care for our donkeys with love and compassion. Our donkeys are intelligent, friendly, and make great pets. We take pride in our work and we are committed to providing our customers with the best possible experience. We are located about 20 minutes from the Calgary International Airport and coffee is always on!
