Thank you for your comments - please remember that Bruno and Willow not only had incredibly comfortable lives compared with most working equines, they - and also you guys contributed to the petition to ban the donkey skin trade in Africa. The hundreds of thousands of you who signed the petitions have saved many many millions of donkeys from a gruesome death and also helped protect tens of thousands of communities that rely on them - this work was carried out by the Brooke Charity who I am very proud to be an ambassador for.

I'm so sorry for what this year has been like for you, I understand because my horse Winsten just passed away 4 days ago, and I grew up with him. plus, he taught me so many things like how to ride and how to basically live a life with joy filled in it. and he was just that one horse that I will ever love like that. once again, I'm so sorry for what happened to you hope you feel better soon!!and I hope you know that they will always be with you no matter what!! you cared for them so well and all your animals not just them. no matter what you were always there for them, and you always will be!! I love your KZbin channel. Even though this took you done stand back up and be the amazing person you always will be!!! FOR YOU KZbin FAMILY!!!!

Im scared to lose the donkey at my Barn, Ollie. He does not live in the best conditions and he is old so i try to make him happy, i brush him give him treats but it seems like nothing is working to help him, he lives in a tiny field thats all poo and mud with 3 other mini horses who are also old all that i want for them is to be sold so they can live the rest of there life like your donkeys. You gave Willow and Bruno the best life that they could get and i thank you for that.

Truly losing them is the hardest part. I would give *anything* to get to relive even my worst day with my mare if only I could see her one more time. It's wonderful too that you started your channel and now have all of this beautiful footage of them to remember them by. Your family gave them long, beautiful lives and they get to leave behind an incredible legacy. My heart goes out to you and your family and Tobey. It does get better but that doesn't dampen the pain when it's fresh - it's good that you can lean on each other and mourn together.

They were beautiful, gentle animals with a heart of gold 💛 You did great with the edit, I can imagine how hard it must be to see your tresured donkeys and miss them so much while doing so. Some people don't understand how important donkeys are and only give horses the love they need, treating donkeys as work animals that don't deserve love. *_Rest in Peace Bruno & Willow 🕊💛🪦_* Thank you for giving these animals the beautiful carefree life they deserve.

I’m so sorry, it’s so hard to lose an animal, especially one that has been with you for so long. I can’t imagine losing two in such a short amount of time. I think most people who have had animals will agree that they are family and that they truly hold a special place in your heart. You and your family are wonderful people who gave them such wonderful lives, they have left their mark on thousands of people’s lives and have done so much in their lives. Having these videos to look back on is a gift, but it can be very hard to look at clips of them so soon after their loss. Please make sure to prioritise yourself, you do so much for your community but the loss of an animal is bound to hurt and it is completely understandable that you would be feeling a lot right now. Take all the time you need and give Toby a big hug. Rest In Peace Bruno and Willow
