Try this link. I'm not Youtube copy literate enough to make everything work correctly.

Maybe someone can fix if it won't open.

A great video. I just about bought one some years back and wish I had. If I lived at he ranch full time I would get one and would be a great project.

Im not a horseman more of a i can sit on the saddle and stay on if they dont get to frisky or make un expected moves guy. Add MS in the mix now so.. For a few years in reading a mule sounds better for me. Sure footed, less likely to bolt, and I dont need speed.

Had a 15 hands saddle broke 5 year old on craigs list not long back. Wife was not a fan and he did look better with the saddle on off his confirmation seemed off some. Wife said its a face only a mother can love.

I always wanted a mule, went to look at a 2 year old mule that was halter broke, sucker kicked me and broke my trigger finger, that was the end of my desire for a mule.

That’s the kind of stuff I figure will happen to me. I want one in the worst way. But I can see this happening

hang around them a bit before committing, the more time I spent around Mules the more I liked horses.

Get a gelded male donkey they seem to be a good fit for some. Find one that is above average size for riding and packing would be a fun project.

Hey Donner ! I owned one and was kicked by four ! My old friend is a shoer and i asked him "Wayne do you shoe mules " he lit up like a Christmas tree and said "I don't like the way they look,I don't like the way they smell and I don't even like the people that own them ." There are good ones ,bad ones and medium ones ,Just like people ,and horses ,


You can ride a fast horse slow but you can't ride a slow horse fast .

Grandson uses one to ride horses aint never been rode before. Tie down the green horse to the mule. Most of the time problems with mules are like problems with dogs and horses. Its the human not the animal.


Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety. Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790)
