We have had Ole Mule for 5 yrs and he is a baby to ride and work we disked the garden with him, he also is great in the buggy!!! The best thing about Ole Mule is he is a saddle mule and theres not many true saddle mules in the world!!!! He is a loveable pet he is a 9yr old, 15 hh and he rides like a dream, hes been on trail rides!!
