21 STEELE Grade
Iron Gray
John
15.3 HH Year Born: 2017
Steele is a beautiful 8-year-old iron Gray john mule that stands
15.3 HH. Steele is sired by Tyler, who is by an own son of the
notorious Texas Scooter and he is out of an AQHA Cow/Pleasure
bred mare on the bottom side. He has the color, quiet disposition
and kindness that you will wear a truck out trying to find. With Steele’s prestigious
pedigree he is a very smooth mover and has the athletic ability for any job in or out
of the arena. Steele will meet you at the gate every morning and is always ready to
go. Here is a mule that has the mindset and ability to do it all. We have ridden him
through town, in parades, down busy highways, crosses bridges, rivers, boggy
mud, and the roughest of terrains. He is a very independent and sure-footed mule.
Steele is definitely a point and go mule with a very good handle. He has a one hand
neck rein, side passes, slide stop, and will take both leads. Steele will climb steep
mountain sides at the speed you desire and patiently take you down the other
side. He has spent many hours around dogs and cattle and has been used for
every aspect of ranch work. On the ranch we use him to check, sort, pen, gather,
and doctor cattle. He has packed supplies on the mountain and packed meat off
the mountain. For an added bonus, he will work single or double and has pulled a
wagon many miles. The way he moves and with his color and looks Steele would
make a great show mule. Steele is easy to clip, bathe, easy to handle loading and
unloading from the trailer, stands to mount, moves over to a mounting block,
stands for the farrier as well as the vet. He is UTD on all vaccinations, teeth and
deworming. Steele has seen a lot for an 8-year-old mule and has his whole life still
ahead of him. He will make a great addition to anyone’s family or program.

22 MILLIE Grade
Buckskin
Molly
15.2 HH Year Born: 2017
Pairadice’s Millie is an 8-year-old, Buckskin curly Molly mule. She
is 15.2 HH and weighs 1200 pounds. Pairadice’s Millie is a unicorn
of all mules. You will never find another one like her. Not only is
she a curly mule (some say hypoallergenic) but she is a Buckskin
with no dun stripes. Millie was born in Canada and her mother has a curly coat.
Her sire is the jack, Silver Nugget. I have had Millie around for several years. She
is really gentle and super affectionate. She is the first to the gate every morning.
When you saddle up to go riding, she is all business. She has a really fast walk that
can make the rest of my mules hustle to keep up. She will go anywhere you point
her. I have ridden Millie all over the United States in all sorts of terrain from Caney
Mountain in Arkansas to the Big Horn Mountains in Wyoming and everywhere in
between. She has hunted hogs in Texas and chased mountain lions in Utah. I have
packed her and lead a pack string on her. She is an all-day mule that does not
wear down. I have gathered and penned thousands of head of cattle on her and
used her for all aspects of ranch work. She is my go-to mule for everything! You
can lead dogs on her and pack dead animals out. She has had lots of arena time.
She takes her leads great, neck reins, side passes and has a good stop and turn
around. She is easy to catch, clip and shoe. She stands good to mount. She will
load in any type of trailer. Mules like Pairadice’s Millie only come around once in a
lifetime – she is a unicorn! For more information, please contact Paradice Mules or
give Loren Basham a call.
