We train our horses every weekday, training them so that they will have some of the basic elements we believe that a perfect trail mount should have.  Such as a ultra smooth, preferably runwalking gait, a lower, 90 degree angle in reference to the ground, headset, and so that they will do all the good stuff like: stand still for mounting, back up or cantering.

All our horses generally are bombproof enough for field trial mounts, fancy enough for flatshod showing, broke enough for different level beginners, and experienced enough for versatility competitions!

We want all our horses to have that “show ring” look that captures everybody’s attention in a crowd! We want our horses to look like they are the “stars of the show.” We like to be the center of attention and like for our horses to be the talk of the trail!!!

We generally keep the average horse approximately 2 months or more before they are offered up for sale. We tend to keep younger horses a little longer than the older horses.  During this time we put a lot of miles and hours into each horse testing and training them in order for them to potentially become your next best friend and trail companion! We believe it takes 2 things to make good horses. A lot of feeding and a lot of riding! Here at Adams Horse and Mule Co., we do just that! We feed each horse an average of 2 gallons of grain per day along with all the fresh hay they will eat. We also clean our stalls very often and keep our horses cleaned and groomed. We believe a well groomed, well fed, and well cared for horse is a happy horse and we strive to keep our horses comfortable and happy! We try to ride each of our horses about an hour each day out on the trails or if the weather doesn’t permit we ride in our indoor arena.  After training is completed and our pictures and videos are taken, we then let our horses live their natural life out on pasture 24/7 with all of their friends waiting until we find them a new happy home!

We look forward to hearing from you and potentially doing business with you! We hope you find the horse you have been dreaming of here on our Adams horse and Mule Co. website. We have and will work hard to get you what you want and deserve, in order for you to have the perfect trail companion. We hope you find your experience and dealing with Adams Horse and Mule Co. pleasant and satisfying! Dedication, Determination, Cooperation, Motivation, Honesty and Integrity are not just words, they are what we operate our business on here at Adams Horse and Mule Co.

After buying a horse from us we are sure you will agree!!!

  My name is Eric Adams and I am half owner of Adams Horse and Mule Co along with my father, Roy. If you call or email us you will mostly be conversing with me. To start off let me tell you a little about myself, I am 24 years young, 250 lbs, and 6’ 1” tall. I am a Christian and a member of Bible Baptist Church. I recently got married, in August 2006, to the most wonderful women I have ever met, Angela Ford.  We went to Cancun, Mexico on our honeymoon and stayed at "The Moon Palace", which was awesome!  I posted a few wedding pictures at the bottom of this page.

  Basically, as the old saying goes, I “Eat, Sleep and Breath” horses. I got my start when I traded in my stroller at the age of 4, for a little, snow white, trotting pony. Sense that pony I have moved on up to the bigger gaited horses. I was active in high school in the FFA and made it to the rank of Kentucky State FFA Treasure (03-04), after I held a few regional positions. I went on to college and after I finished my degree I pondered what job I would like to have? The answer was clear and conclusive…Buying and selling horses was my calling!

  I really have the perfect job! If you love what you do and do what you love, you should always be smiling!  With my job it leaves me with all smiles, all the time!  I am a perfectionist!!! In everything I do I want to be the best and have the best! When it comes to horses nothing changes with me…I still want the best, prettiest, gaited horses and I want to be the best, most reputable seller I can be! Buying and Selling horses is my business. In order to build up a business it has to run on 4 key principles that I call the 4 “Ations” to success: Dedication, Determination, Cooperation, and Motivation. Let me explain…As a seller I must be Dedicated to helping the customer find the Horse of their Dreams, Determined to find Top Quality Trail horses to offer up for sale, be Cooperative with the customer to meet all their request, and Motivated to do the best and most helpful job that we can. At Adams Horse and Mule Co. our business was founded on and operates on these 4 key principals along with honesty and integrity. I look forward to helping you, in your quest to find the Horse of your Dreams!!!

Thanks,

Eric Adams

  My name is Roy Adams and I am half owner of Adams Horse and Mule Co. along with my son, Eric. I am 55 years old, 5'10" tall, and weigh 200 lbs. I am a Christian and a Member of Poplar Grove Baptist Church.

  I have always been a horse lover! I got my first pony when I was about 4. She was a black/white tobiano, welsh pony. Her name was Trixi. I rode her for what seemed to be a million miles. I used to rider her on the sidewalks, through yards, and on the court house steps (one time) in my hometown of Mt. Vernon where I grew up. When I got old enough to trade a little livestock, I started buying baby calves, cows, and hogs, until I became set on horses.  I traded horses for a living for many years until I got married to my wife, Judy. Then I started in the Auction and Real Estate business. In which I have worked in for over 30 years. I have my auctioneer license as well as my real estate broker’s license.

  After my two son’s Roy D. and Eric became of enough age to ride and got ponies, I got back into the horse business. After they grew up we began to raise, buy, and sell a few horses on the side just for fun. After the years rolled on my oldest son Roy D. got out of horses and into guns, in which, he is a very accomplished skeet/trap shooter. My youngest son, being like myself at his age, just couldn’t get enough! So we together started and have built from the ground up Adams Horse and Mule Co. What started out as just a father/son hobby has now became a career for him and a plethora of memories for the both of us!

  To tell you a little about how we operate our business, we just stick to the facts and leave all the other stuff out. We try to be as critically honest about our horses as we can possibly be, in order to assure customer satisfaction. There are not many things I don’t like in life but crooks, cheats, and liars are just three things I do not tolerate and have no use for. Therefore I do not affiliate myself with those kinds of people and I do not show those characteristics. I have found that a good salesperson just let the horse do the talking! A horse can actually say a lot to someone who is willing to listen. At Adams Horse and Mule Co. we search out and find horses that will do just that, speak for themselves! When you have a horse that looks, rides, and acts great what more can you say after someone returns back from a ride? Like I said our horses will do the talking. I believe you will agree as well! So if you are looking for the perfect horse you have come to the right place! We would love to help you find it and chances are it will be right in our barn!

Thank You,
