Is there a central “Miniature Donkey Organization” per se?
In North America there are three different registries. In Canada, the miniature donkeys are regulated and registered by the Canadian Donkey and Mule Association. It is the governing body over the miniature donkeys which sets the registration requirements and keeps permanent records on all miniature donkeys that are registered (as well as the standard, and mammoth donkeys and the mules). This organization is regulated by the Canadian Animal Pedigree Act. In the United States there are two Registries. The first is the American Donkey and Mule Society. They operate on the same basis as the Canadian Donkey and Mule Association . The second is the International Miniature Donkey Registry. It varies from the other two registries as it only registers miniature donkeys, and they are allowed to be 38″ in height and under. There are also registries and various organizations around the world that register, and promote the miniature donkey industry.
