He’s the little guy in the middle who’s spotted."</p>\n<p>A VISIT TO BRETT AND KELLEY MACNALLY’S FARM IS LIKE A VISIT TO A ZOO. </p>\n<p>THERE ARE SHEEP, GOATS, CATS, AND IF YOU WANT TO TALK TO THE MACNALLYS -- YOU HAVE TO GET PAST THE CATTLE.</p>\n<p>Brett MacNally / Hee-Haw Hollow: "We have highland cattle. This is Savannah and Sweet Pea."</p>\n<p>AS SOCIAL AS THESE GUYS ARE - THE FARM REALLY BELONGS TO ONE ANIMAL.</p>\n<p>"We’re coming babies."</p>\n<p>"Good morning babies!"</p>\n<p>A COUPLE YEARS AGO BRETT AND KELLEY LEFT CITY LIFE FOR COUNTRY LIVING. </p>\n<p>IN PART, BECAUSE THEY WANTED TO FIND A PLACE TO RAISE BOTH MAMMOTH DONKEYS AND MINI DONKEYS.</p>\n<p>Kelley MacNally / Hee-Haw Hollow: "One day my daughter sent me this video about donkeys, about this girl and this donkey, and I totally fell in love."</p>\n<p>Brett MacNally / Hee-Haw Hollow: "We are very spontaneous people, generally speaking, so we just kind of rolled with it."</p>\n<p>THAT MEANT LEARNING ABOUT DONKEY FARMING ON THE FLY. </p>\n<p>THEY QUICKLY FOUND OUT THE ANIMALS BUILD CLOSE BONDS WITH PEOPLE.</p>\n<p>VETERINARIANS EVEN SAY THEY BECOME DEPRESSED WHEN THEY’RE BY THEMSELVES.</p>\n<p>Brett MacNally / Hee-Haw Hollow: "What he’s saying right now is I’m here and why isn’t anyone paying attention to me?"</p>\n<p>THEY CAN ALSO BE VERY PROTECTIVE.</p>\n<p>EVEN THE MINI ONES.</p>\n<p>Brett MacNally / Hee-Haw Hollow: "We have bear out here, coyotes, bobcats and you would see the tracks of those all throughout this pasture. Once we got the donkeys, we never saw another track from a predator."</p>\n<p>John Lauritsen / Reporting: "It’s believed that donkeys are smarter than most dogs. They’ve been known to open up doors on their own and let themselves out of the barn."</p>\n<p>Brett MacNally / Hee-Haw Hollow: "The reason we got into the mammoth donkeys is there are very few people breeding them in the U.S., and we want to help support that breed as well."</p>\n<p>THE MACNALLYS ALSO WANT TO HELP INCREASE THE NUMBER OF MINIATURE DONKEYS- THOSE THAT ARE 36 INCHES TALL OR SHORTER. </p>\n<p>OVER THE PAST TWO MONTHS, BIANCO AND ROMEO BECAME THE NEWEST MEMBERS OF HEE HAW HOLLOW.</p>\n<p>Brett MacNally / Hee-Haw Hollow: "Within in an hour they are walking and wobbling, within two hours they are running up and down the pasture."</p>\n<p>THE LITTLE ONES ARE PART OF THE INSPIRATION BEHIND "THE FANCY FARMER" - A CAFÉ THAT BRETT AND KELLEY ARE OPENING IN NEW GERMANY.</p>\n<p>Brett MacNally / Hee-Haw Hollow: "It will be donkey themed. We will have a small fenced-in area where we will bring the donkeys up so that people can come and see a donkey."</p>\n<p>TRACK: (FOR ALL SHAPES AND SIZES LINE</p>\n<p>The couple hopes their customers get a kick out of their donkeys as much as they do. An animal that comes in all shapes and sizes- with a people-pleasing personality.</p>\n<p>SOT: (7 SECONDS)</p>\n<p>14:17:29 They are so loving, so compassionate, I feel like they are really in tuned with people. :36</p>\n<p>SOT: (10 SECONDS)</p>\n<p>14:50 It’s the love. To come down and get a hug from an animal, have them put their head on your shoulder and just be happy to stand there and have you hug them as long as you want to hug them. 15:00</p>\n<p></p>\n<p></p>\n<p></p>\n<p><b>--TAG</b>--</p>\n<p></p>\n<p></p>\n<p><b>-----END-----CNN.SCRIPT-----</b></p>\n<p></p>\n<p><b>--KEYWORD TAGS--</b></p>\n<p>MINNESOTA CUTE ANIMALS FEEL GOOD</p>\n<p></p>
