Default Parachuting Donkey

How can people be so stupid? This poor donkey was used for some sort of advertising gimmick in Russia. It was scared to death.

Apparently the Russian government is trying to make it up to poor Anapka, the parachuting/parasailing donkey.

Boy, where do I sign up for this kind of treatment?

She will be whisked to the KREMLIN'S five-star stables where she will be lavished with VIP treatment including SUNBEDS and ORGANIC CARROTS.

The donkey will get Tsar treatment at the prestigious Kremlin Horse Riding School close to Moscow while she undergoes quarantine and medical tests before travelling to her new home in Britain.

Here's some of the luxuries she will enjoy while living it up at the equine paradise:

* GROOMING staff who will pamper her day and night.

* A MASSEUSE will give rub-downs with special heel ointments to calm her frayed nerves.

* A DONKEY-whisperer - just like Robert Redford - is on standby 24/7 for counselling sessions.

* AIR-CONDITIONED stalls to keep cool in the summer heatwave gripping Russia.

* HOOF trimming and exotic shampoos.

* FILTERED water.

* PIPING hot baths and BLOW-DRYING facilities.

* EXPERT dieticians who will draw up a special meals plan for Anapka, 17.

* 24 HOUR security.

It's expected Anapka will begin each morning with a breakfast of rolled oats in her super-comfy 15ft by 15ft stall.

Then she will be taken for a walk in the facility's lush grounds, surrounded by rolling hills and breathtaking scenery, a world away from her drab former life in the Russian caucasus.

She will also have the use of a 60 metre by 60 metre open-air training course, as well as an indoor course fitted with giant mirrors so she can preen herself and inspect the grooming staff's work.

Lunch will be a slap-up meal of porridge with flax seed decoration.

Then she can chill-out under the sun-beds which are fitted with infra red light beams to warm her tired muscles.

At dinner Anapka will gorge herself on organic carrots, available all year round at the stables, even in Russia's harsh winter months.
