Available May 7-10 at Chrome in the Canyon Premier Mule Sale held in Tropic, UT. Find out more at PremierMuleSale.com! Fergus is a fancy 12 year old john mule with a huge heart. He is a lot of mule squeezed into a little body, but don’t let his 13.2 hands fool you. He can easily and safely pack an adult sized rider all day on steep and rugged trails. He is quiet and sensible on the trail and does not tend to spook. He will carefully cross any bridge and any type of water, wide or narrow, rushing or deep. He negotiates rough and rocky terrain with ease and without jumping or tripping. He is used to and very tolerant of dogs. He has been on trail rides in the Eagle Cap Wilderness of Northeast Oregon, coon hunted countless nights in the Midwest and has been trail rode in the canyons of Southern Utah including Kodachrome National Park. Fergus is a nice mover and knows all the basics in the arena. You can swing a rope and drag a log or hack over jumps in an english saddle. He is easy to ride and handle and has a good neck rein in the bridle. He is safe and patient on the ground for children and small adults and does not have typical mule manners. He will also carry any type of pack outfit, including hard boxes, without a fuss. We have taken Fergus out on the trail by himself and he does just fine on his own. He loads right up in any trailer and you will hardly notice he is there. He is good for the farrier, good for clipping and bathing and is up to date on dental, vaccinations, deworming and hoof care. He is easy to bridle, even for shorter riders. He is ready for your next adventure with a current Coggins and a fresh set of shoes. For more information, to meet Fergus here at our ranch or ride him during mule days, contact Pam Fournier 541 280-5077.
