There’s a saying “Life’s A Journey”, well this is the mule to experi-
ence it with! Journey is great on the trail, fun in the arena, and an
asset on the ranch. Truly one of a kind! Gentle, talented, friendly
and most importantly safe. She is willing to do whatever you ask of
her. She has a solid foundation of ground work, arena riding and is like a mountain
goat in the trail. She will flex, move off leg pressure, is light and responsive with
a great neck rein. She is very SOFT with lots of feel while riding or doing ground
work. She rides in everything from a D-ring snaffle to a curb bit, halter, neck rope,
and even guides by lightly asking with your fingertips on her neck. Journey is a
solid trail mule. She doesn’t get in a hurry, she goes up, down over and through
whatever you point her at. On steep hills she is like a 4-wheeler, no rush in
rough areas and knows how to pick her way through big rocks and over downed
trees, through slippery creeks, and is definitely surefooted. Always confident and
self-assured when others come and go. She’s happy to lead or follow in a group
and unfazed riding out by herself. In the arena she walks quietly, has a smooth trot,
easily extends if you want to cover big country, and steps right up into a balanced,
smooth collected lope all on a loose rein. She has excellent transitions between
gaits, is responsive to both leg or hand cues and will stop, back and side pass will-
ingly. We’ve had a lot of fun riding her bareback and bridleless too. Journey stands
perfectly to mount and willingly moves over to a stump, tailgate or anything you
find to make it easy for you to get on. She is smooth and comfortable you can ride
to the top of the mountain and be excited to do it again tomorrow. On the ranch
we’ve drug logs, barrels, and used her to pony horses and mules. She is good with dogs, water, guns, bridges, machin-
ery, traffic, tarps, flags, wildlife, umbrellas, bull whips and much, much more. Journey gets along with others out in
the pasture and is always easy to catch. She stands perfect to saddle, bridle and mount, and is good for the farrier. She
hops right in the trailer and hauls great. She’s good to wash and will stand quietly tied all day. Journey knows some
fun tricks, she lays down, sits up and even smiles. If you’re a beginner she’ll take care of you, if you’re experienced the
sky’s the limit on the adventures you can have and the bond you can build with her. Journey is a special and fun mule.
We are thankful to have had her in our program for everyone in our family to have ridden and enjoyed. She’s willing,
smart, gentle, well trained, controllable and built to last! Journey is a mule for the whole family to enjoy for a lifetime of
happy trails. Call Bryan for more information.
