Say hello to Jack!
Jack is a 6 year old, 13hh, brown, mule, gelding who is ready to find his home as a non-ridden companion.
Jack really enjoys getting out of the field, going on walks and meeting new people and ponies. Jack enjoys being turned out with his friends and is looking for someone with previous experience with managing and handling mules. Jack is ear shy so would require someone with patience when grooming and using a headcollar. Jack is looking for a home where he can be exercised at least once a week, for instance by using poles to help him manage his locking stifles.
Jack is an affectionate, curious boy, although in some unfamiliar circumstances he may become nervous, he gains confidence through his handler and is seeking this confidence boost from his new fosterer.
Jack currently laps up attention from the team, he is always one of the first to greet you in the herd, always curious about what you are doing.
He thoroughly enjoys going out on walks and saying hello to new friends over the fence.
