If you are 4 or 94, you can ride or drive Jingles, if you are an inexperienced or an experienced rider you can ride Jingles.
Jingles is gaited, she's medium to heavy-boned, and is 15.2 hands. She is drop dead gorgeous: black with 4 white socks, beautiful ears with large, kind eyes. Jingles has an excellent disposition, calm and kind. She is sound.... (read more)

I have owned Jingles since she was a year and a half. She has had endless hours of ground work, trail riding, and was trained by Sam Shetler, mule trainer, Boonville, Missouri.

You name it, Jingles can do it!
Jingles:
• comes to you to be haltered or bridled
• lowers her head to bridle or halter
• loads, clips, and shoes easily
• slowly, backs out of the trailer
• will not crowd you at the gate
• steps back if you lightly shake the halter or reins
• stops when you stop, backs if you back
• sides to mounting block, fence, rock, or log
• parks out when mounting, parks out when dismounting
• side-passes
• crosses over on the front when turning
• breaks at the pole when backing, walking, gaiting, loping
• breaks at the pole when riding collected
• lunges in a round pen or on a long line - stop, back, and turn in either direction
• backs with leg pressure
• turns with leg pressure
• moves from a walk to a lope without hesitation but be prepared to stop when you say “whoa”
• navigates through obstacle courses: cross a teeter-toter, side pass over barrels, pull a wagon or tire, pull or carry plastic tarp, step on plastic tarps, and the list goes on and on
• Her pasture mates are geldings - she finds them rather boring

Jingles has had endless hours of riding. Water crossings, steep narrow trails with rocky footing, traffic, tractors, 18-wheelers, 4 wheelers, motorcycles, guns, coon hunting, and misbehaving equine companions does not upset Jingles. By the way, she can handle ditch riding – if she steps on a water bottle or crushes a pop can, no problem! Jingles will go wherever you point her, alone OR in a group with no fussing or sourness. In any situation, tap the rein or tap her side, she’ll point an ear back to let you know you’re fine – this makes a any rider feel comfortable. Jingles will give you years of pleasurable riding and will win ribbons in the show ring or in western pleasure.

Jingle’s trainer, Sam Shetler has exposed her to almost everything from having wild horses or mules tied to her as she breaks them to lead, been hitched to noisy manure spreaders and flatbed trailers. She’s been hitched to a buggy and driven to town, pulling single or double. Sam’s little boys rode Jingles when she was only a year and a half and the older boys rode her to and from school!

I am offering Jingles for sale because I am not riding her and she needs to go to a good home and to a rider who will appreciate her as much as I do. I'm not riding Jingles because my sister passed away and I can’t bear to sell her mule, Soxie, who I am now riding.

You can see and ride Jingles at Brock, Texas. Jingles is for sale for $25,000.
