[QUOTE="chippie, post: 1083086, member: 5644"] He is pacing (not weaving) because he misses his cows. Donkeys are herd animals and he is stressing out because he is alone. If he has a shelter (like an open shed or a windbreak) where he can get out of the weather when he wants too, he should be fine. I would put him back out with the cows or find him another donkey to keep him company. ETA: when a horse weaves, it will stay in one place and sway side to side. I had a horse that would do it in the trailer if you didn't drive fast enough. A friend has an Arabian that will weave like that when stalled. [/QUOTE]
