Each owner receives videos of the foal's birth and training milestones. The philosophy of Brayer Hill Farm and Jim and Sue includes the belief that mules bred from quality mares and jacks are the best saddle equine one can have. When bred from quality donkeys and mares, their conformation and attractiveness is comparable to horses. When raised and trained properly, their temperaments are generous. Mules are unquestionably superior trail mounts with their surefootedness and donkey intelligence and sense.
Mules are fast proving they are competitive in shows and competitions.
But, most important, mules share a very special bond with their owners, one of mutual respect and cooperation rather than dominance. For this reason, mules endear themselves to a very special kind of owner and rider. It is now time for the mule to overcome the image of a work animal and move into the twenty-first century as a leisure and companion equine under saddle and in light harness.
