We started our donkey adventure in 2002 with two donkeys.  That was the plan and now we currently have 46 donkeys.  We are continuously improving our herd by replacing original stock with with donkeys with better conformation, better dispositions and much better pedigrees.  Seven of our last 8 purchases in 2009 were donkeys from the state of Texas.  After visiting 12 farms in March of 2009, we decided that the drafty square donkeys that we seen at several farms was exactly what we wanted to raise in the future.  We used the slow economy to our advantage and made some fantastic purchases.  We have all colors of donkeys, but are concentrating on reds and tyger spots.     (3/12)

Herdsires:
We have three outstanding jacks as our herdsires.  ASSphalt Acres Ali is our tiny 30" light sorrel jack that is very drafty and correct.  We added Wee Ones Tyger, a three time national ACOSA champion jack, in 2008.  Tyger is a 33" Tyger spot that loves to perform in the show ring.  Our latest addition was purchased in July 2009.  Short ASSetts Fireplug is a 32" dark red jack and is our pride and joy.  After our Texas visit, we decided that we wanted to raise donkeys just like Fireplug and were lucky enough that the Shorts at Short ASSetts gave us that chance.  We can't wait for our 17 foals for 2010 to arrive.

ASSphalt Acres is located between Rushville and Shelbyville, Indiana, just off State Road 44.  We are 6 miles off I-74, just 30 miles SE of Indianapolis and 80 miles NW of Cincinnati.
