I'd like to get my mum and her DH matching donkey brushes for Christmas, as they are planning on buying two donks in the new year

The only place i can think of is Countrywide, and on their website at least they just have horse brushes. Are they the same thing? Will it matter if i get two horse brushes?

hope someone can help!

no it wont matter, they can be used on donkeys, I am sure.
Maybe get a finer bristled one, as I think donkeys may have thinner coats.

They'll be absolutely fine.

We used to use them on the donkeys at the donkey sanctuary I used to work at.

Use Tesco's as well surprisingly.
