Training Mules (Part 1: Resolving Issues with Mounting, Softness, & Body Control)

I treat a mule exactly the same as I treat a horse. Mules seek leadership just like a horse, and they learn through release. Many people see mules and defiant, but I like to think of them as DEFINITE. They are concerned with keeping themselves safe more than anything, so I have to learn to work WITH him by releasing his tries rather than getting into an argument with him. Many people aren't aware that I grew up riding mules. I've learned one thing you have to do when training mules is LIKE them - and then be sure THEY BELIEVE you like them. You also have to be very CLEAR and let them know what you want. Issue #1: Stepping off when I try to get on. I'll fix the issue by asking the mule to work backward when he comes forward. I will repeat until he learns to stand still when I get my foot in the stirrup. Issue #2: Getting a better handle. I'll ask for softness with two reins, driving from behind, and releasing when he gives. Then I'll work on shoulder movement, hind end movement, and ribcage movement, just like I would with a horse.
