"I have been a continual horsemanship student for many years.   Many instructors have assisted my journey, but when I encountered Mule for the first time it was no less than amazing.  Not only is he an accomplished horseman, he is a natural horseman.  Mule has the uncanny ability to approach each individual, horse or student, where they are at that moment.  Through the hours I have spent under his guidance, so many "light bulbs"  have come on.  He helps you build the bond you want with you horse.  Mule has left his mark on my horse and on my life." 

"Being at a point of extreme exasperation with a horse, no one to turn to, no one wanting the challenge, no one having the right answers, we finally got the phone number of people who have chosen to help and work with "troubled horses" (very rare, because the money is elsewhere in the horse industry) Mule  pulled us out of a situation with patience, kindness, understanding and a whole lot of talent. Our lessons amazed us. We had no idea that we were part of the big problem. We were able to come away with the tools to control our horses. We still have more to learn, but at least, now, we can enjoy our animals, get the very most out of horse ownership, and hopefully, have happier horses too!........We live in gratitude for Mule & Marsha, and we are so fortunate he chose to work with problem horses."

"How to describe the two young Haflingers we sent to Mule for foundation training? Curious. Friendly. Playful. Unfortunately, they were also pushy, disrespectful, and mischievous. When they came home from Double Diamond T, "the boys", as we call them, were soft and respectful. We were thrilled with that transformation, but we were just as happy that the positive aspects of their nature remained intact. They returned to us still curious, friendly, and ready to be dependable partners on the trail. It was obvious no cookie-cutter methods had been applied-they simply would not have worked with this breed. A true horseman, Mule draws on his creativity, intellectual curiosity, and wealth of experience to bring out the best in the horses he trains, while being respectful of their individuality. We appreciate the integrity he brings to his profession, and we have confidently recommended him to several of our friends. Thanks, Mule!

Oh, the boys are still a bit mischievous, but nobody's perfect..."


"With Mule the horse always comes first.  Mule speaks horse and can teach people. My problem filly seemed like a lost cause until we found Mule. Now she is awesome. She is trained a lot better than I am, but I’m catching up with Mule’s lessons and clinics. Videos are great but there’s nothing like having him right there patiently telling you what you’re doing right or wrong.
