Therese, I do agree, and I know thare are the ones out there that don't hold true to the rule, but so far all my mules have been that way. Some of them might...
I've been reading about how most mules like light mares, don't like stalls, etc. Don't try to fit mules into a "most mules" category. They are all vaguely...
Yes, there are exceptions. When I tried to put the 2 john mule together here, Louie and River, River was VERY aggressive towards Louie. He would go after Louie...
I am seeing a pattern of "Prior" to the count. Good thing the Executive Office has a "mean ole Audit committee", to do a recount. It was discovered that the...
I have read that too. I think that idea was started by Remmington who artistically needed a light colored figure in his paintings for contrast. I like to...
I would not train my riding animal to rear. Been there, done that. I am too old to contend with rearing when I don't want it. Not a good idea. Donna B. ...

hello, yes that is right about my young trainer. There are two videos of Taluka...one when we first started training and she was very fearful...Training a...
Funny one...that is my trainer...her name is Sola and that is how I have to learned to do so much with my fearful mule with clicker training. My mule can be...
Hi Barb. You can ask this group any question about mules and get good useful answers. I belonged to the group for about two years before I got my mule, asking...
Hey Tana, I have taught Billie Jean a few tricks but rearing is a trick that I don't believe should be taught to any riding animal (unless I guess it is some...
