Wonderful article. My husband farmed with Percheron mules in Indiana. The jumping from a stand still is amazing, as are those trail mules. I wonder what an Arabian mule cross would be like? You make me want to go to Dreamhorse and just see what mules are available. I took care of an old German man, and he said his knees were bad from farming with mules in early life. He spent long hourse

Great post! <BR/><BR/>We have a miniature donkey who LOVES to jump - he squeezes into our arena when my daughter is jumping her pony and follows them right over the jumps. <BR/><BR/>It does seem true about the training differences.

What a wonderful, informative post. There is a very popular spotted mule in our area who does very, very well in dressage and eventing. He and his young rider have managed to beat some of the big dollar warmbloods in several dressage events. <BR/><BR/>I love mules. I'd love to have one one of these days. I've foxhunted mules in the past and they are an absolute BLAST.

Wow! I read your article and I can't wait to read the other resources you linked. I've been really curious about mules for a while now. I haven't had the pleasure of riding one yet (although I've ridden a large donkey once). <BR/><BR/>I tend to enjoy intelligent, "stubborn" to some, horses. So I've begun to wonder if I'd enjoy a mule. <BR/><BR/>Thank you for the info!
