I don't know mules, but is ther a reason why encouraging him from behind with a 
tap on the >>>bum (or a little lunge whip flapping around) from a second person 
wouldn't have helped?


Since there are no survivors of this technique of trying to make a mule go 
forward I will explain. A mule can kick any direction at any time with deadly 
accuracy and yes, as the "Big" Danny Herlong says, one square inch of mule meat 
is stronger than a pound of horse meat. 

That baby mule ran through the electric fence for a long time as if it was 
nothing, then one day he decided never again. If you can't drag him across it 
with his eyes open and he hasn't crossed that line while watching the whole 
herd do it for a week and gone without food while they grazed, a tap from a 
lunge whip wasn't going to send him through that gap! It will be interesting to 
see if he considers it dangerous from the other direction.

We had an electric fence around our yard and after we took it down you could 
shove my husband's coon dog where the fence used to be and he'd help like it 
got him.

Little Danny won't go through the opening...he is scared that the electric fence is still there.  SO, Angie suggested that I tie him to Rose and if she wants the grass enough, she would drag him through.  So, I decided to "pony" him with her through
