There’s a sweet new face on the Arkansas farm of HGTV stars Dave and Jenny Marrs, and fans cannot get enough of the family’s not-so-little new addition. On July 18, 2025, Jenny introduced her social media followers to Minnie Marrs, a black and white “rescue cow” that Dave brought home when he learned she didn’t fit in with the rest of her herd.
“Oh, Minnie,” Jenny captioned a video of the cow exploring her new pasture. “You didn’t fit the standards for the cattle farm. There, you were too small. Too different. But, here? Here, you are enough.”
Once Minnie grows comfortable with everyone, the Marrs hope she will happily cohabitate with their other animals, including sheep, horses, alpacas, donkeys, and dogs. And so are the “Fixer to Fabulous” stars’ fans, who flooded Jenny’s post, totally smitten with Minnie and praising the Marrs — who also have five kids — for taking her in.
Jenny Marrs Says They’ll Work to Earn Minnie the Cow’s Trust Over Time
Jenny added text over a sweet video of Minnie’s first day on the Marrs’ Bentonville farm, hanging out with some of their other animals.
“This is the story of a cow named Minnie,” she wrote over footage of the cow surrounded by other cows, who were larger and stronger. “She was smaller than her siblings and never quite fit in with the herd…”
Then, over footage of a small cattle trailer and the Arkansas state line sign, the text said, “Today, Minnie found a new home. In Arkansas.”
Jenny added video of her and Dave offering Minnie food before the cow nervously scurried away. But each time, she returned to eat. Empathizing with Minnie, Jenny wrote in her caption, “Today, you are sad and confused and scared. You left everything you’ve ever known. You were taken to a strange pasture with strange animals and humans.”
“We know it won’t be easy to earn your trust,” she continued. “We know it’s going to take more than gentle words and yummy treats. We know it’s going to take us showing up, day after day. It’s going to take sacrifice on our part. Time and energy and love poured out. And, without a doubt, we know it’s going to be worth it. We can’t wait to watch you flourish here, little one.”
Jenny concluded by writing, “And thank you to @dave.marrs for the best surprise today (after a very long week) – a rescue cow? Yes, please. Always. 🤍”
“It will take a bit and her herd will look a bit different,” Dave replied, “but she will definitely be spoiled!”
