Ruby

Description:

Ruby is a steady-minded 13-year-old, 13.3-hand bay dun mule with fancy striped legs and a dishy baby doll face. Agile, surefooted, and strong, she has been there & done that and prefers to mosey along through life. We have used her as a kids/guest horse, and she will happily pack along with beginners, big and small, and more advanced riders. The family we got her from also used her as a child’s mount. She was said to drive single and double. However, we do not have the equipment for that. Nothing phases her. She doesn’t care about going through the drive-through, riding through deep mud, water, and loud vehicles, she doesn’t care. She is easy to catch, will follow you around hoping for attention, and stands for grooming/tacking/farrier. She is easy to load/unload in the trailer and gets along with the other horses regardless of whether they are rude or not. She rides out alone or in a group. She likes to be friends with the world and is easygoing and steady. She will walk down the trail all day and happily climb through mud, over trees, briars, bridges, etc. Deer and turkey can flush under her nose, and she doesn’t bat an eye. She doesn’t have any spook in her. She neck reins but is a bit rusty from being ridden mostly by beginners. Her preferred speed of travel is a walk. She will trot if asked. If you really want her to, she will canter, but it isn’t really her thing, and she hopes you won’t ask for a lot of it. She will work as a packhorse, ride double or triple, and can trail ride all day without breaking a sweat. She is an easy keeper and has excellent barefoot feet. She doesn’t mind rocks etc., and requires no special maintenance. Selling her due to no fault of her own. She has been a wonderful fit for our family.
