Claudia Webb from Prescott Valley AZ.62 degrees. Thank you for all these wonderful videos. I’ve always had horses and now I’m ready for a mule. Your information is wonderful.

Hello, I just found your sites on KZbin and Facebook. I worked with mules while with the Forest Service 19 years ago and never lost the love of that. I so desperately would like to get back. I rode and packed in the Eagle Cap and Bob Marshall Wilderness. I live in Montana. I'm very much enjoying your content.

Victor, this is great! Thanks for taking the time to watch and thanks for sharing. We've got over 200 live stream episodes, if there's anything in particular we can help with... let me know.

Watching on 12/13/22, 29 F freezing rain forecast then up to 8 inches new snow! This is why we can't get much construction done in winter her in Northern Minnesota. Now we will have to wait until the frost goes out of the ground before I can start construction on my new stable. I am going to set this one up primarily for mules. When I get it finished then I will have the facilities to properly handle mules.

I've watched this at least half-dozen times already! Wonderful filming of the clinic--I just wish I had been able to make it in person! Thank you for uploading it for us all.

[@muleranch]

We hope you'll be able to make the next one, too!

Hi Dave and steve, Thank you so much, Its Pam from south africa. i seem to miss it live but dont miss it on utube. its about 15deg tonight. I want to ask you what I am doing wrong. My donkey 10.1 hands has been doing really well and standing on loose rein.,turning etc. Asking him to back up i am battling with it. a bit. Am using comealong all the time. Also he has now decided not to follow me when I walk him to the top pasture for exercise and work with him as I go. I must add its probably because my old man charlie stays at home {horse not hubby) so it makes no difference if I ask tell demand . This is something new. I am so chuffed with how he is going apart from above. Thanks again, I am learning so much every week. One other thing. I am wanting to put Chippy in a cart. When the 6 months training is over what is the next step and can I use your double wire snaffle bit and martingale in a cart. and for how long. Sorry its so long winded, Regards Pam

[@muleranch]

Hi Pam, Dave here! We will answer this during our May 11 program!

Enjoyable content until you show you politico view..we come places like this to escape from the news and politics, and learn something new..but glad to see the others didn't take the bait, and stayed focused on the moment
