Sterling is more precious than, silver, gold and diamonds. He’s gentle as they come, broke for anyone and everyone and he’s absolutely unique and beautiful. Standing at a perfect 14.2 and 6 years of age there isn’t much under the Sun that Sterling hasn’t done. He’s been a ranch “horse”, a trail mule, done some playday events, packed a flag, been to the Sonic, been rode bareback and even dabbled in English and jumping. He’s been shown in some local horse shows and always done well! Sterling is as gentle as they come and has a big sweet personality to go with him. He is good to catch, stands tied nicely, loads, leads, shoes, bridles, and saddles with ease. Sterling takes excellent care of his rider in every way and he’s truly one of those mules that you can ride on a loose rein and just relax and enjoy your ride! Sterling has a beautiful collected lope that western pleasure trainers are envious of! He has a nice jog trot, and easy walk out. Sterling is straightforward on the trail and is great to ride in the back, front or middle of a group. He is confident over logs, water, bridges, brush, hills, and ditches. Sterling has done all the ranch work. He has drug a few calves to the fire, pen backed cattle at the sale yard, gathered cattle from big pastures, and sorted pairs. Sterling has a lot of cow working ability and enjoys it. Sterling is easy to mount and likes playing with the tarp, flag, sled, and other party tricks. Sterling will side pass up to a mounting block, fence, or trailer fender for easy mounting as well. Sterling will lope on either lead on a loose rein as well as complete correct haunch and forehand turns. He side passes either way and is great to open gates on. Sterling is the same if you ride him everyday or once every six months. Sterling is up to date on dental, vaccinations, chiropractic care, hoof care, and worming. Sterling will also sell with our optional two day clinic at our home facility in Baxter Springs, Kansas in addition to a comprehensive manual on Sterling’s cues, habits, and health information. Please call or text John:(208)310-5686 or Molly:(208)566-3050 for more information about Sterling. We’ll see you this spring on the trails in Bryce Canyon, the place for the “Premier Mule Sale!”
