The little donkey, named Jack, was born on a farm in rural Texas. He was a curious and friendly little fellow who loved to explore his surroundings. One day, while wandering around the farm, he came across a group of horses grazing in a nearby field. Jack was excited to meet them and went over to say hello.
However, as soon as the horses saw Jack approaching, they became frightened and started to run away. Jack was confused and didn’t understand why the horses were scared of him. He tried to follow them, but they kept running away, leaving him behind.
Jack’s owner, Mary, noticed what was happening and went over to see what was going on. She realized that the horses were scared of Jack because he looked different from them. Jack was smaller and had longer ears than the horses, which made him stand out.
Mary knew that socialization was important for Jack’s development, so she decided to take matters into her own hands. She started to introduce Jack to the horses slowly, one at a time. She would bring the horses over to Jack’s pen and let them sniff and interact with him while she supervised.
At first, the horses were still a bit scared of Jack, but over time, they started to get used to him. They realized that he was just a friendly little donkey who wanted to be their friend. Eventually, Jack was able to socialize with the horses without scaring them.
