What a sweetie! How do you get a mini mule? She's sooo pretty!

Mini donkey male + mini horse female = mini mule
Mini horse male + mini donkey female = mini hinny

Thank you! A mini mule like Betsy is a cross between a miniature horse and a miniature donkey.

did you know that minis can fly??

One of the best headstones I have ever seen.

This one got me all teary-eyed. I worked with some kids with Muscular Dystrophy many years ago . . . I know they've all been "freed" from their chairs like this by now.

Durn tootin'! That's an event called "Coon Jumping." Notice that the handler is standing still - the jump is always done from a standing start. Horses can't do it, but it isn't unusual for a mini donkey or mule that stands less than 3 feet high at the withers to be able to clear a jump higher than it is tall (a few years ago, a 32" mini donkey won at the mini donkey nationals with a jump of about 4 feet!)

Dude. The quality of these people's cameras were better than mine 40 years later.

Wow, mine too..

Here is what I have from 1964
