Yes, you will need to continually have the donkey's hooves trimmed by a blacksmith and its teeth "floated" by the vet.

Yes, this is how you can tell how old any equine is, the teeth will need regular floating (trimming) by the vet so the do not over grow and cause the donkey discomfort.

Do horses teeth continue to grow throughout it's life?

No. Answer2: A horses teeth are fully grown by the time they lose their baby or milk teeth. Once this happens the horses adult teeth begin to erupt through the gum-line and continue to do this for the vast majority of their adult life. The purpose of dental eruption in horses is to replace the amount of tooth lost to chewing up the tough forages horses evolved to eat. The forages are tough and wear down the dental surfaces necessitating dental eruption to replace what was lost.

Do cows teeth regrow?

Yes, just like human children do. Cattle loose their baby teeth when they reach around 2 years of age to be replaced by adult teeth. But as old adults, most won't loose them, as they simply wear down after years of biting and eating forages to the point where they can't eat anymore and have to be shipped.


Do Donkeys' teeth always grow?

Donkeys' teeth like the teeth of horses always grow. Donkeys and horses have the same dental equipment. Dr. Hyde at The American School of Equine Dentistry has this to say in response to a doubt regarding donkeys' teeth: "There has been a lot of interest in donkey teeth since the Shrek movie! The answer is the same as horses... 36 usually for females and 40 or 42 or more if they have "wolf" teeth." When the Southwest Equine Medical & Surgical Center in Scottsdale, Arizona is contacted. the following clarification is given: A Male Donkey will have 42 - 44 teeth. The variance is related to how many canines erupt. Some donkeys will have 2 and some will have 4. Genetics generally plays a role in whether they have 2 or 4 canine teeth. A Jenny (Female Donkey) will have 36 - 38 teeth. A very large percentage of Females won't ever have any canines erupt.
