Does Reese Witherspoon Have Any Pets?

Honky and Tonky (Miniature Donkeys)

Breed: Miniature Donkeys | Adopted Dec 2010

Around Christmas in 2010. Reese Witherspoon adopted two miniature donkeys Honky and Tonky. Miniature donkeys, also known as donks, are generally docile and friendly but that doesn’t stop them from growing to about 225 to 350 pounds in size. The friendly giants also happen to live 30 years so you’re looking at a serious commitment. However, that hasn’t stopped Witherspoon from adding them to her miniature farm. Last we heard her backyard consists of two pigs, three goats, 20 chickens, one horse, and a bunch of dogs.

I am so heart broken, but I am also deeply grateful for all the love and comfort she brought our family. Now she’s in dog heaven where all great pets go. Chasing tennis balls, running through open fields of wild flowers and being the Queen that she is. That’s what I believe. 🎾🌸 👑 We will always love you, Pepper.”
