We show our donkeys in a variety of shows, some of which are exclusively mule and donkey
shows, others are horse shows in which we will be the only donkey showing. Showing the minis
is a good way to promote the breed and let others know about these wonderful little animals.
Below is a partial list of some of the more recent awards and Show Ring of the Cedar Creek
Farm donkeys.
LN Redsonne Sonne had a very short but extremely impressive halter and performance career. Although Sonne is now retired from the show ring, he has won two prestigious awards. In August 2000, Sonne received the Versatility Hall of Fame Award from the American Donkey and Mule Society. In May 2001, Sonne received the Merit of Breeding Award from ADMS. |
