Rocky On The Trail
Out of a top quality Tennessee Walker and a fast-stepping gaited jack, Roxy is a racking machine. This little gal is very forward going with no hesitation, and her gaits progress from loose and comfortable dog walk, to the flat-foot walk, then to a very correct head-nodding running walk, and finally ending up in top gear-- a powerful, ground covering rack that eats up the miles. There is no canter here-- she transitions smoothly through her gait progression, without requiring any tinkering to get a correct running walk or rack. Roxy’s gaits are about as “point and shoot”as they come-- smooth and reliable every time. This molly is one of the finest (and most fun!) rides we’ve ever offered and would excel at a variety of events, including the show ring!

Roxy in the cattle business
Part of what makes Roxy exceptional is the quality of her mind. Although she’s got too much go for a nervous novice, she’s not a hot-head. She’s got a great handle on her, and she’ll not only stop and stand still, but she also stretches out to for you to get on! On the ground, she’s a little reserved until she gets to know you. At first, we thought she might be hard to catch, but as time has passed we’ve got her figured out. Many mules are “relationship” mules- they don’t give you their heart on the first date. Roxy is no exception. Once she gets to know you, she’ll come to you pretty quick, especially on a dry lot.
Yes she will just plug alond with the Quarter Horses
We haven’t found anything that spooks her yet, and we’ve tried! School busses, surprise dogs popping out of the bushes, turkeys, loud tractors, tarps-- you name it. Not a flicker of the ear. On the trail, she’s all business. She has no baggage and trusts her rider completely. This means she moves forward, without hesitation, no matter the obstacle in front of her. She’s been out moving the cows around, and down the road, all without a hitch. With this much speed, and a level head she might make someone a once-in-a-lifetime fancy field trial mount! Roxy gets compliments everywhere we take her. Under saddle, she has this powerful “Look at ME!” attitude that really catches the eye. From her shiny black coloring and cute brown nose, to her gorgeous and feminine head and her jaw-dropping gaits, this rare molly oozes charisma. We’ve had a couple diehard horse people see us out and about, and say they finally understand what the “big deal” is about gaited mules! If you’ve been looking for a fast-gaited racking mule, you might want to meet Roxy sooner, rather than later. We’ve never offered one with better gaits, and mules of this caliber don’t come along every day. She will go very quickly once the word gets out.
