Here is another member of our show team who razzle-dazzled at Mule Days - meet Alison! Alison shows Oliver, our charming workaholic with the expressive face (see a few posts back). But Alison also very recently acquired her very own mule - the stunning “Pretty Mary Kay.” And MK certainly lives up to her name, she is stunning, charming, and ever a lady.
Alison and MK showed together for the first time at Mule Days, and managed the impressive feat of placing 6th in the giant halter class - and then, went ahead and scored first place in halter for quarter horse type mules! This is a huge accomplishment, being that MK is only 6 years old and has her big baby moments (although, always very gracefully so).
If you have never shown halter, you might not know how difficult it is to get a giant animal to stand still and look pretty for what feels like a very long time - y’all just going to have to trust us on this. Or come out to the ranch and try for yourself.
Alison and MK showed their mettle, and as their relationship deepens and their training evolves, you can be sure that those two elegant ladies will keep scoring ribbons in all sorts of classes. 🐴🫏
