Teeth
At maturity (after the third year teeth have erupted) the teeth of the upper jaw should meet evenly with the teeth of the lower jaw - not overshot ("Parrot Mouth") or undershot ( "Monkey Mouth"). Up to a 1/4" variation from an even bite (extreme limit) is accepted for registration into the Miniature Donkey Registry.
Rationale:
A good bite is important for grazing, chewing, digestion, nutrition and ultimately longevity.
