MDR - the Miniature Donkey Registry.  Founded in 1958 by Bea Langfeld.  Now run by ADMS, this registry is exclusively for Miniature Mediterranean Donkeys.  Up until 2009, any donkey under the height of 36" at the withers could be registered as long as it met basic type and conformation.

Since the numbers are now over 54,500, the book will close to "untraced" donkeys in Jan 2009.  This means that ONLY donkeys who have both parents already  registered as Miniature Mediterranean donkeys will be placed in MDR.
