Centex Equines - Mules Ponies Donkeys Tack Training Trail Rides Riding Lessons Boarding

Elizabeth,

Thank-you “you’ve done it again” Found us another mule that fits our requirements. Safe, dependable, durable and a pleasure to be around. As you know my husband and I had been looking for some time for another mule and when May came along you and your trainer thought of us and even brought her to me.

If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, HONEST mule person, you’ve come to the right place. I met Elizabeth about 6 years ago when I purchased my first mule from her. She has willingly shared her knowledge about mules, tack, feed and so much more. We’ve met some great friends and have ridden some awesome places from New Mexico to South Dakota. Thanks again for matching us up with not only safe mules but other “Long Ear Lovers” that enjoy our passion.

Happy Trails, The Cole’s

Talked to many, she’s the one!

We found Elizabeth Moody thru Ag Direct. Com.

Green at riding and owning Mules, we asked our mule trainer, who actually is a leading and winning Mule Show man from Smithville, TX to please accompany us on the ride to help advice us on our first mule buy. We got the OK from our mule trainer on a particular mule my husband and I fell in love with. We took Sarah (our new mule) home and its been a love story ever since. My 13-year-old daughter stole her away from me and she (Sarah the mule) is loved by our entire family.

We got more than just a mule; Elizabeth has become a very good friend and has helped my family out with our mule’s questions ranging from mule behavior to mule tact. She makes us feel very comfortable asking her for mule help. I have a special order mule that I am looking for and Elizabeth will call me up to see if I want to come down and ride one that she thinks may be what I am looking for.

She matched us up with a great mule that is part of our family and even introduced us to some mule riding folks in our area. We would definitely recommend her for being extremely ethical and honest. She buys and sells mules, and makes absolutely no excuses about it. Beware of folks who keep advertising that they are not mule traders, they are! Elizabeth Moody knows mules and her advice should be taken seriously.

My husband Jerry and I have purchased 2 Missouri Fox Trotters from Elizabeth Moody and we are more than pleased with all of our transactions with Elizabeth not to mention how well suited both mares were for us.

As both mares were for me I explained to Elizabeth that what I needed was a dependable, honest, sound, gentle mare who would take me trail riding with Jerry. I am in my early sixties and Jerry in his middle so neither of us need a horse that cannot be trusted. In both cases the mares I got from Elizabeth fit the bill and were far above any expectations I could ever imagine.

Thank you Elizabeth for all you have done to help me and know that I have no reservations in sending anyone to you for any kind of horse or equine of any breed.

I’ve bought several mules from Elizabeth over the past couple of years, and wouldn’t hesitate to buy another. She’s honest, knowledgeable, friendly, and very helpful. Having bought lots of horses and mules over the years I can definitely say Elizabeth is one of the best people I’ve dealt with. Tell her what you’re looking for, if she doesn’t have it she’ll find it for you, and it will be exactly what she says it is. Elizabeth knows mules. If you’re in the market for a good mule I would definitely recommend you give Elizabeth Moody a call.

Dear Elizabeth,

I don't know if you've talked to Ron Bradshaw or not, but I thought I would report that Boo is doing great at his new home. He and Buck have bonded and travel around their large roaming area like Mutt and Jeff, playing and carousing. Of course, Caroline is totally in love with him. Boo got a lot of attention while he was here at the Post Oak and had made friends with his stable mate in just a few hours.

Happy New Year!
Helen

Elizabeth and John:

I thought I would let you know how happy we are with Boo - my Christmas present from Santa... First he was a total surprise (thanks in no small way to Helen Miller). We had a houseful of our kids and 2 small grandchildren. Boo is so gentle, and allowed all of us, a 6 year old and an 8 year old to hug him - a lot. After about 3 days of what we call "a rodeo" with our older donkey, Buck, the 2 finally bonded and Boo follows Buck everywhere, and Buck is protective of him.

He's adorable, and gentle and sweet and happy and growing!

Thank you from Ron and me.

Hi!

Herman is such a HUGE baby, when he opened the stall door on the trailer & I saw him I was like WOW what a baby! Mamasita is such a pretty friendly donkey. She is so laid back. We are very pleased with both of them. They got off of the trailer & walked into their stall in the barn & just settled right in. Mamasita is funny, when I was in the stall petting Herman she nudged me & wanted her head rubbed too. We just love them.

Bye!

Hey Elizabeth,

Well, we finally got Danni early this AM. She is a doll! I'm thrilled. The transport gal and her daughter were great and I was pleased with all. Now we can take some time adjusting and getting to know each other. The weather is really crummy this week so hope it warms up soon. I'm will be looking for a lightweight saddle and bridle for her so we can get started.

Thanks for all your help I really appreciate it. I'll keep you posted and let you know how things progress. I think I got a dandy!

Yours truly,

Kathy Dahl

Hi Elizabeth,

I just can't say enough good about Sugar. She's everything you said she was except for two things. One she's neat in her stall - all elimination in the corner if you please. And two she follows me around like a puppy. I let her out to graze in the front yard and hobbled her so she could go where she wanted to. I sat outside to keep an eye on her and what'd she do - hobble right on over to me, never mind the grass. She's sooo sweet! Her feet are tough as nails - I'll never have to trim or shoe 'em. But my very favorite part is her personality. Ever since I lost Gus I've been looking for another one like him but never expected to find one - well Sugar is as close to him as I could ever want to get.

I was so pleased with her performance on the trail ride too. She had a rough go of it and handled it like a trooper. I picked her up from your house, drove 4 hours to get home, unloaded her, put her in the barn and clipped off her mane and she spent her first night here. Next morning I loaded her again, drove 5 hours to Arkansas to ride, rode a couple of hours after getting there. All day the next day and most of the day after. Loaded her up late that afternoon and drove home 5 hours getting in around midnight. She had a lot to absorb in a very short time, new home and horses, travel, lots of riding and she never gave an ounce of trouble. I was impressed. Not to mention all the sights and sounds where we were - buffalo, lamas, goats, cows and chickens, hundreds of new horses and some donkeys (she sure looked for Abner) - new tack, new rider - a lot of new. I was so glad to have her. I felt totally safe and was able to enjoy my whole trip without a worry.

But the absolute best part of the whole trip was when one of the other riders we buddied up with asked if she was for sale. She wanted her for her husband and I said "Oh, no not for a million bucks would I sell her!" But I did give her your name, number and email addy so hopefully you'll hear from them too. If I ever want or need another mule (or horse), you'll be hearing from me!!

Sincerely,

Kathleen
A mule gathers your scattered pieces

order.

Elizabeth,

I thought you could use an update on Casey. He is doing great. I had him at my trainer for 2 weeks and had two offers to buy him for twice what I paid for him. He is going nowhere. I took him to the Texas Trail Challenge last weekend and got first place on him. We did the tenderfoot class because we have never done any competitive trail. He side passes and neck reigns beautifully. We had some problems with him loading in the trailer but we have worked with him patiently and he has gotten over them.

Glad to be a great home for him.
Love him lots.

Elizabeth,

How was your Thanksgiving? I hope well. You certainly use my email for your website. It is just really nice to have honest people in the world and I appreciate you so much. Everything you said about Bella was right on. I had hoped to get her out this weekend and ground drive and ride but the weather did not hold up for us. So instead I fluffed up her stall with more shavings and closed the barn doors at the ends to keep her warm. Also of course many treats as well. All the horses are very frisky from our cold snap but today it is suppose to be clear and warmer. So we will be out this afternoon. I just love that mare. Bella is truly a gem. Thank you again. I feel like I already have my Christmas present early. Please do feel free to use any of my emails in anyway you need to.

Sincerely BJ

Elizabeth,

I harnessed Bella up last Sunday and ground drove her all over the property. She was so incredibly wonderful and patient with me. She is so light to drive. Everyone including the owner of the property who grew up on a farm and work it with Drafts said he could not believe how calm and light she was. I then after driving her got on her in my english saddle and rode her all over the property with the owner and his horse and he said she is just as quiet undersaddle as she is in the harness. He said that is a rare find and of great benefit to have a drafty that you can do both with. He said you really found yourself a nice family draft. I absolutely love Bella Thank you so much. She even allowed me to cry on her shoulder when we had to put my husband's 13 year old aussie/rottie mix hearing guide dog to sleep day on Monday. Bella just hung her head over the stall door and put her head in my chest and I just held her head and cried. She was of such comfort. It was as if she knew. She is the sweetest mare love her. Thank you Elizabeth again for such an incredible mare.

Sincerely BJ

Hi,

I was just writing to let you know how much we are enjoying Violet the donkey we purchased from you in September. We are having so much fun with her – she has tons of personality and is so much fun to have around! She brays to greet us (and when it is feeding time) and is very talkative. She was recently the star of the Lake Travis FFA Petting Zoo – she loves to get pets and have her ears rubbed. We recently purchased a six month old colt and he and Violet will play for hours in the pasture and she gets along really well with our other horses - she has plenty of friends – but is generally the boss of everyone!

Thanks again!
Dyan

P.S. Be sure to tell your mom that we sneak her oatmeal cookies occasionally as well!

Hey ya'll!! Just wanted to take a moment and tell you how WONDERFUL Scout is!! I have finally healed up and stopped business travel long enough to actually RIDE him. Did so yesterday for the first time. WHAT A JOY!! He is everything you said he is...and more. Elizabeth, thank you so much. I have an honest horse I can trust. He IS sane without bad habits. An absolute gentlemen...just as you said. I find I need to take a lesson on how to ride a gaited horse. My body position is not quite right. But I will have many years to enjoy this horse...we are really starting to bond now that I have time to spend with him. Thanks, again, for your integrity and plain speaking. When I get ready to buy another horse...and the time is coming...I will definitely give you a call.

Hope you and yours are well. Enjoy your summer...

Warm regards,

Mitzi

Please go ahead and find me one just like her!
