Donkey that paints? Must be Pic-ass-o
A PAINTING donkey called Patty is set to follow Pudsey, the dancing dog, as a star of Britain’s Got Talent.
Like all of the most memorable acts on the show, she has a tear-jerking back story after being rescued when she was just a foal on the brink of starvation in Romania. Now Patty is the star attraction at HorseWorld animal sanctuary in Bristol, and her colourful paintings sell for £100 or more.
Handler Vicky Greenslade taught her painting to relax her. “I started by getting Patty to hold the brush in her mouth but she soon learned to paint – it took around three weeks,” she said.
