Re: Training a mule

Mules are not horses so don't try to train a mule like a horse. Get a good rope halter with 15' of rope. The rope halter adds some traction that comes off when the mule releases. When teaching to lead never start if you have some where to go. Never start eny training on a mule if you are in a hurry ...

Re: mule bit

A harsh or rough bit is a sign of lazyness or lack of knowledge on the ground. To get a soft mouth in the saddle you must get it on the ground. My theory is if a mule walks through a snaffle, in time they will walk through any bit. Sorry but leverage or extreme pressure to the mouth is not good.

Re: help me solve a friendly argument

If you want to catch a high percentage of bear, your dogs need to use some Ivory. All bark and no Bite just doesn't get it done, and if one catches a high percentage of bear this way, don't ever leave that area! Just saying, if you want a bear to tear the bark off a tree to get safe, more ivory the ...

Re: What Characteristics Make A Fast Bear Dog?

Mackdog,

This is my opinion. Males 55-60 lbs, females 50-55 lbs. Big Deep chest, give the heart and lungs room to work. Long legs, the further a dog can reach forward with back legs the more ground it can cover per stride. Lean and stream line, muscle takes energy and oxygen, so unneeded muscle is ...

Re: Guide in Idaho, Units 32/ 32a proposal?

Brushcreek well said!

I have two questions for the guide that wants to use public land just like every one else. 1st-The bear tags. Are they allotted, or are they drawn. 2nd- This unit isn't a draw for lion correct?

If this guide can jump the rope, get the units, and harvest trophy animals on ...

after reading your post and the list of references, I read something odd. Don't you have pups for sale that are 5 months old now?
