Thank you so much, that’s very kind! I just do my best and try to prepare her the best I can ❤️ it helps that she is such a kind little mule and really wants to please ☺️☺️ thank you so watching and for the kind comment ❤️
No way in Gods green earth that Josy would ever leave my hands if I had her! She would be my dream mule too! I doubt that she will be anything but big with her breeding. Got Maggie at about 3 years old and now at 6 I can't see over her back...probably 15-3 now. Way bigger than I thought she would be. Calm and sweet. You are doing a great job with your training of her. Well trained and trusting prevents a lot of recks down the road. Wish Mag had all those spots...but she's my dream mule no matter her color. You ride the attitude, you get lucky with the color!
It’s crazy how long it takes them to grow up! Clyde grew like 4 more inches after his 4 year old year haha! Maggie sounds so cool ❤️❤️ I like that name too ☺️ Thank you so much, we really got lucky with her! She’s a special one for sure ❤️
Alyssa, you are a great trainer. A kind heart and patience reap nice rewards when training livestock. Awesome job. Josse looks like she will be a very fine mule. The length of the video is PERFECT. 👍👍👍
Thank you so much!! ☺️❤️ I really appreciate that! She is a special little mule! I’m so thankful we ended up with her here! Thank you so much for watching! I’m always a little iffy dropping long videos like this, but wanted to show the entire session and what we worked on ☺️
@@gillhall7590 she really is!! ❤️ we were hopeful but couldn’t tell when we first got her home. She has really blossomed into such a sweet and willing girl 🥹❤️ we feel so lucky to have her! Thanks for watching! ☺️
Hi Jason and Alyssa! Wow! Josey has grown so much, in size and skills. She seems to be better about being pushy, so given her age, she is really amazing! I love her laid back personality. The whole video I was thinking, “They are going to sell her?” I’m so relieved to hear you are keeping this sweet molly. I think given the story that God wanted you to have her. The way you are training is so gentle. Just wonderful to watch. I’m enjoying your earlier videos too. I can’t wait to see her grown up. Take care and God bless your family and you! 😊🙏👏👍
Thank you so much!! Haha yes her being pushy is a work in progress but she has gotten much better 😂❤️ Yeah we feel the same like she was meant to be! The only reason we would think about selling her to a good home would be if she ended up just too small for us to ride ☺️❤️ but I don’t think she will!!
She really is! We got very lucky with her! Did you see her first videos? She was so nervous to even let us touch her when we first got her, but it didn’t take her long to figure out we were her friends ☺️☺️
This video actually brings ideas of what true feminism is to my mind... A female trainer who is a consummate professional, yet also seems to bring even more nurturing patience to the task than one might expect of a man. This lady simultaneously radiates such competence and caring that I think I would trust my six-year-old daughter with her overnight without ever even having met her... Plus, maybe my girl would even get a free lesson in mule breaking. Just wonderful... Kudos!
Haha thank you so much 😊 our mules are like family and we definitely want them to be confident in knowing that we don’t want to hurt them. That trusting relationship is so important, once you have that then they really are so kind and willing ❤️☺️ Josey is such a sweetheart!
Beautiful video. I enjoyed it very much. And i love Josy. Very sweet mule. All my respect for her trainer, you are so gentle and with all the patience Josy need. Good luck and success for the future. ❤
Love watching you work with her, that's great! Can't wait to see the highlining, need to introduce that to my horse, so that will be another great video! LUV Josie, her demeanor, and WILD Appy color! 😊😊
Thank you so much!! We will definitely film her first sessions on the highline ☺️ it’s such a great way to start them to tying because they can’t set back and hurt themselves since they can’t pull straight back on the rope with it tied up above their head. 😃 plus we use one all the time in camp! They are great for that. She just needs to learn to tie and not be panicked and then we will start hauling her out! I’m SOOOO excited!! ☺️🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼
I love that you’re bringing her packing without expecting her to carry weight since she’s so young. I was laughing when you said she could pack the sleeping bag and a lunch 😂
Haha!! 😂 yeah with her being a baby we want her to get experience but definitely don’t want to put any kind of physical strain on her until she’s mature ☺️👍🏼❤️
@@MTN_BUILT that’s the best thing about making videos! I’ve been thinking about starting a channel off and on. I’ve also been thinking about getting back into Mules again, and breeding my mare
Well done. You've taken the time to take each step and build her confidence, and the results speak for themselves. I'm new to mules, they are the same age, and we're about at the same stages. ❤
I love your approach and patience! So often I've see others rushing and needing immediate results. Someday I would love to own a mule! Josie is beautiful ❣
Very cute....great color........Spa day,good haircut always important.....Mules need alot of Love.....Her mother still thinks she was railroaded by the Jack, they are all about talk, reason difficult to get beyond those ears.....Horses are very prejudice.....best of luck....
Thank you! She really does have an amazing temperament… we can’t believe how well she thinks through things and solves little problems. We feel SUPER fortunate to have her 😊🙏🏼
Thank you so much! Yeah we should do a better job of introducing them lol! Yeti is a GWP she’s 4.5 years old Squirrel is a mini Aussie and he will be two in September ☺️ they don’t really have any jobs, they are just here to hang out haha! 😆
wow her markings i love it all, the colors the spots and variation of the spot's colors , she is just gorgeous through and through. you are so blessed to have her. what hybrid of mule is she? the Jack stud and the horse mare ... i would love to know what breed both are since they produced a gorgeous offspring. thanx!
Thank you so much! I can’t believe we ended up with her ❤️❤️❤️ We show her mom in this video, she was a 15.1 hand foundation bred leopard appy, although she looked more flea bitten than leopard. Her dad was a 14.3 hand gaited jack (he was a red color.) Out of 4 siblings from the same cross, Josey is the only one that came out with color ❤️ the breeder had already sold her dad when we went to look at Josey, but he still had her mom and was selling her too… we were tempted to purchase her and breed her again. But we aren’t set up for that with limited pasture. But I’m curious if she would have had more like Josey. ☺️❤️
Thank you so much! These guys are like family and we want to make sure they are happy with their lives and are left feeling confident and positive about each session ☺️❤️
Thank you so much! 😊 we appreciate you watching!! I’m the only one that’s been training her, but Jason’s around her all the time and always giving her scratches and working on her pushiness when he’s out in the pen too, so she is very comfortable with us both ☺️👍🏼
If you lean your shoulder into her just a bit just before you ask her to lift her foot, it will give her more stability and confidence, and it acts as a cue. But release the pressure as soon as you are holding her foot. It’s not ok for her to lean back.
Hey! Great question! We run them barefoot almost all the time. Occasionally I run front shoes on the white mule if we are riding in a lot of rocks. We do use a farrier, but he has been helping me learn how to trim mules hooves so I do some of our own as well and eventually will do all the trims myself ☺️
@MTN_BUILT it's probably for the best, but I can help myself. Theo Von stand up bit. Google it. It's the weirdest compliment you're likely to get today anyway
Great video watching now why does it take so long to get them ready to ride or pack are all mules the same are horses harder or easier to train I've read extensively about the natives being able to just get on a horse and go thanks kray
We want to make sure they are comfortable with the process. We want them to be confident and trust us before we move on. It’s like training a dog or a child going to school, they have to learn things step by step. Kids have to learn their abc’s before they can read and spell and it takes years before they are able to write in complete paragraphs and use more complicated words… it’s the same with equines, we have to progress one step at a time so they don’t get frightened or shut down. ☺️❤️
@@MTN_BUILT ok so is it not true that wild horses or horses never ridden are broke in a corral until they accept the will of the rider and respond to commands thanks kray
@@kraymississippi4388 that’s one way to do it lol you can force a horse into submission and that’s how the old cowboys used to do it, rope them, snub them to a post, blindfold them, tie their legs up, saddle them and just get on and ride them out… but you can imagine that would be pretty traumatic for the horse, and not a good way to build trust and confidence in the equine. ☺️
@@MTN_BUILT it is still done that way though right even today I'm not questioning your methods I know very little and what I know I've learned from you and I understand the trust and patience it must take I have no experience in these matters I only check my ATVs when they won't start for gas oil and battery lol thanks kray
Haha I know you’re not!☺️ Yeah some people use force still today, there are SO many methods to training equines just like there are dogs. We want to be our equines partners and we also want to make sure they feel comfortable and confident ☺️👍🏼
Prowler keeps a strip of chest hair almost all summer. Its gotten less but when i first got hom i actually sent a pic to my vet asking why does my mule have 1970s sexy chest hair??? Haaa. She said its the donkey in him. Haaa. I dunno but its like upsidedown fringe. I also shave djs mane like a stegasaurus . Looks bitchin when we do mounted archery.
Haha that’s awesome! I never thought about it being from the donkey haha that makes sense! We call it her bellyhawk 😂😂 That’s a great idea!! Especially for mounted shooting haha! I would love to do mounted shooting, maybe Josey will be my girl for that 😀😀😀
@@MTN_BUILT never done pistol but it looks fun except for the noise. Archery is quiet. Lots o practice on the ground . Dj figured out the game and really enjoys taking me past the targets. No reins. They start to understand. Its really a cool trust builder. I'm way out of practice but both are a really cool thing to use all the horsemanship skills for. Kinda triggers a soul memory from past warrior lives.😮😆
@@jennyrosd2003 that’s awesome!! I’ve shot compound a bunch but only trad once, I loved it! We’ve been talking about getting some trad bows for fun and I’m already planning on trying to shoot off of Clyde with it haha I bet he wouldn’t care!
@@MTN_BUILT yeah I was surprised when I noticed he was cluing in . Cuz I'm thinking of something completely different and he has to do his part. He also likes when I hit the target cuz I say good boy. Haaa and he has to stop after a few shots and stand to wait for me to gather arrows. Just all sorts of cool stuff they learn to do with a reason behind it. So much stuff we do has no immediate reason. I think its kinda magic. They are so intelligent and like to be part of it.
Depending on her individually, if she seems like she is maturing than we will start her with a rider at 3. But we don’t do any steep mountain rides or long rides until they are conditioned with a rider which is usually closer to 4 if not after they turn 4. We plan to have her for her lifetime so what’s the rush ☺️❤️
@@johannakuster1564 protection from what? Bugs? I could see that being a point if we had cut her tail. Mules don’t grow much of a mane to begin with, especially an appaloosa crossed one. As we say in the video, we choose to trim our mules manes as do many mule owners. You don’t have to agree, but that’s what we do! ☺️👍🏼
Haha I know it right?!? I mean that’s what you want a first saddling to look like, but it’s not so entertaining to watch 😂😂❤️ I’m not complaining at all, so happy with her!! ☺️ thanks for watching!!
It doesn’t seem fair to ride her, as she’s not large enough. To ride a horse their shoulder should at least be as tall as your shoulder. The recommended weight they can carry is 20% of their own weight. She shouldn’t carry a grown adult.

Kinda triggers a soul memory from past warrior lives.😮😆
@@jennyrosd2003 that’s awesome!! I’ve shot compound a bunch but only trad once, I loved it! We’ve been talking about getting some trad bows for fun and I’m already planning on trying to shoot off of Clyde with it haha I bet he wouldn’t care!
@@jennyrosd2003 that’s awesome your guys getting it and runs right past them for you!!
@@MTN_BUILT yeah I was surprised when I noticed he was cluing in . Cuz I'm thinking of something completely different and he has to do his part. He also likes when I hit the target cuz I say good boy. Haaa and he has to stop after a few shots and stand to wait for me to gather arrows. Just all sorts of cool stuff they learn to do with a reason behind it. So much stuff we do has no immediate reason. I think its kinda magic. They are so intelligent and like to be part of it.
Wait till 4 to do real riding?
Depending on her individually, if she seems like she is maturing than we will start her with a rider at 3. But we don’t do any steep mountain rides or long rides until they are conditioned with a rider which is usually closer to 4 if not after they turn 4. We plan to have her for her lifetime so what’s the rush ☺️❤️
Dont cut the mane! They need it as protection.
@@johannakuster1564 protection from what? Bugs? I could see that being a point if we had cut her tail. Mules don’t grow much of a mane to begin with, especially an appaloosa crossed one. As we say in the video, we choose to trim our mules manes as do many mule owners. You don’t have to agree, but that’s what we do! ☺️👍🏼
How old is she?
She will be two end of this year
She's so calm She's boring
She will be reading and writing before to much longer
Haha I know it right?!? I mean that’s what you want a first saddling to look like, but it’s not so entertaining to watch 😂😂❤️ I’m not complaining at all, so happy with her!! ☺️ thanks for watching!!

Ugly thing to say about ...... anything
What??
It doesn’t seem fair to ride her, as she’s not large enough. To ride a horse their shoulder should at least be as tall as your shoulder. The recommended weight they can carry is 20% of their own weight. She shouldn’t carry a grown adult.
@@denisemiller4083 that’s a super good point and that’s why we’re not riding her yet 😊
It is an absolute CRIME you shaved off he gorgeous mane 'because it's more difficult to maintain'. Shave your own #"&+ hair as well then!
lol I actually do. It’s much cooler too 😊 -Jason
She's beautiful.
Thank you! She really is! We’re so thankful for her 😊
