Luna, now roughly 21 years old, was originally intended to be a trail horse. However, her journey took an unexpected turn when she began to lose her sight due to a condition known as moon blindness.

Despite the diagnosis, Luna's owner refused to let her spirits dim. Recognizing her resilience, he sought a companion to assist her in navigating the world.

Enter Petey, a devoted donkey with a heart of gold.

Petey became Luna's guiding light, her very own seeing-eye donkey. With an intuitive sense of when Luna needs assistance, Petey steps in to lend a helping hoof.

Together, they form an inseparable bond, embarking on each day's journey hand in hoof.

Every morning, Petey leads Luna out of the barn and into the pasture.
