Coosa County Sheriff's Office (SCSO) deputies are asking the owner of three donkeys to contact them since the three donkeys are wandering around the Stewartville area for a period of two weeks. Hopefully the persons in Coosa County will get the donkey's home safely soon since it is in the best interest of the persons of Stewartville The question is that did the donkeys run away from home or did the owner decide to get of them?

I sure wish animal owners would be more responsible. If the owner decided to get rid of them, he should be made to pay a fine. I think that would be a for of cruelty. Just quit taking care of them because he wants to rid of them?

That is true that anyone who owns an animal should take care of their pets.

Donkeys are great for keeping away predators when you have things like chickens. I think donkeys are cute.

I am in agreement with you that donkeys are useful as guard animals.

I hope the donkeys get back home. It could be the owners couldn't afford to feed them anymore

I hope they just ran away from home and they can be gotten home. No one should just "dump" animals like that.

I hope they escaped and weren't just turned loose.

Donkeys are lovely animals. Have they found the owner yet ? Did he say if they had escaped ? I wonder why he didn’t report them as missing as they were seen for two weeks !

The location of the owner of the donkey has not been found yet. The authorities are wondering where the donkeys came from.

Perhaps, the donkeys did not like having a donkey for an owner, as they appear to be from this story, of their donkeys wandering around for two weeks, like that.
