I think he was looking for a system that could get a mule to perform like a horse, and he did. >From the Parelli website, Pat's bio: "The mules taught Pat the importance of reverse psychology, the principle of safety and comfort as the only real incentives, and developed in him more savvy on how to get a prey animal to "want" to perform. They also taught him about patience! In 1980, Pat founded The American Mule Association." Kim
