After researching the grazing muzzle, I've decided that it is worth a try. There is a small hole so she will be able to eat some grass but not much. I think...

Welcome to the group Barb. Many (most) of us landed here for the same reason you did. We love our mules and want what's best for them. You will learn a lot...
