If there's one thing Donut knows for sure, it's this: she is adored — and rightfully so.
Donut is an 8-year-old mini horse with a personality bigger than most full-sized farms. She was gifted by grandparents Greg and Sandy Webb as a special surprise for their growing crew of grandkids — DJ and Dak Serpico, Allie and Maddie Webb, and a whole cast of loving kids (and adults!) who now consider her part of the family. Before joining the Webb farm, Donut lived in a small fenced yard. These days, she enjoys wide open space, endless attention, and a schedule packed with snacks, brushing sessions, and admiration.
Her name may have come with her, but no one could imagine a better fit. "Donut" perfectly captures her sweet, playful spirit — and the kids agree it's the best name a pony could ever have.
When Donut runs, her mane flows dramatically behind her, earning her a well-deserved reputation as a real-life unicorn. She's convinced she's magical… and honestly, no one around her is arguing. Her size makes her just right for hopping on and riding around the yard, and the family jokes that she's basically a giant dog — just with hooves and a fabulous mane.
Donut also happens to be highly treat-motivated. If snacks are involved, she'll stretch her head as far through the fence as physically possible, smiling the entire time to be sure she doesn't miss out. Spoiled? Absolutely — and proudly so. The kids love helping with chores, brushing her coat, and making sure she gets all the attention she can handle.
Beyond the laughs and photo-worthy moments, Donut has brought something truly special to the farm. She keeps the family's big horse company and has even helped their rescue donkey come out of her shell. Thanks to Donut, the once-shy donkey now approaches people and eats treats by hand — a small but meaningful victory.
Around the Webb farm, Donut isn't just a pet. She's a princess pony, a peacemaker, and a daily reminder that sometimes the smallest animals bring the biggest joy.
