| showghere mules & mares |
| From the late 1960's to the early 1990's Jack Sivils & Grandson Show Mules were a dominating force at the Missouri State Fair in Sedalia, Missouri. Jack Sivils & Grandson Show Mules placed each year they showed taking home several ribbons and trophies. Not to mention taking top places at the Ozark Empire shows and parades. These experiences furnished me with fond memories ( as I am the grandson), and gave me the opportunity to see first hand what it takes to raise and train a show quality mule. I hope based on my hands on education of these beautiful animals that I know what a good one looks like! Our mares are Missouri Foxtrotters, we choose our mares based on body confirmation, calm demeanor and completely natural gait. We breed to Mammoth Jacks that are structurally correct with attitude to make an aggressive (not lazy), yet gentle and receptive animal to serve man the way the Lord intended. My wife and I have embarked on a mission to raise the BEST MISSOURI GAITED MULES available anywhere. Some of the characteristics we have concentrated on are the right size, confirmation, 4 beat gait and mental aptitude and attitude. Don't settle for less, there is a reason they say, "THAT ONE IS A MISSOURI MULE!" |
