Old South Dog Boxes

These guys build the best dog boxes I’ve seen!

I was looking around for a company that made dog boxes that would fit in my Side by Side and couldn’t find anything.

I got in touch with Old South Dog Boxes and they are able to make custom builds!

They are building me a dog box that will fit exactly what I need.

They make a diverse range of dog boxes, dog trailers, and bird rigs for bird hunters.

Check them out and let them know that Brett from Born 100 Years Too Late sent you!

Skito Saddle Pads

I was in the market for a new saddle pad after my old one wore out.

Agnes, my riding mule, has a bad back and it makes a big difference to have a good saddle pad.

Ellis Canvas Tents

I reached out to Ellis Canvas Tents because I was just not too happy with my sleep system. I had seen their products before and was really impressed with the "Cowboy Bedroll". They sent me one to try and can say that so far it is the best I have used for Cowboy Camping.

Soon I hope I can get one of their Canvas Tents

Mountain Ridge Gear

I have been using Mountain Ridge Gear for many years now. From their Saddle Bags, Horn Bags and all the accessories I haven't found anything yet that is as well thought out and functional as their gear. Now I have a pair of their pack panniers and love them

    Bonnie and Clyde and you're the Mob Boss.

    My friend had a pair of mules. Named hall + oats
  • @steven9541
    You can tell your mules loving your stories too...such a well adjusted mule....
  • @krishanson1639
    Yep riding by oneself makes a difference. Especially when you overnight somewhere. She is a pretty mule!
  • @btgoble
    Definitely keep the name Bonnie. Could be beautiful Bonnie. Did Brenda go home? I love how your dogs don't leave you and the mule. Looks awesome. I also love you method your using to get to know her and be bonded. Great stuff. Tracey (Australia)

    Don't know if you have time to read any comments but here I go!!! 67 Earth years single Father of a 17 year old son!!! Was raised in the city, went to my Dads parents farm almost every weekend!!! Loved, and remember every second of our visits, still my mother would never let my Father bring us into the lifestyle!!! Don't get me wrong I can fish and Hunt as good as the next Man, but did it on my own!!! My mother would not let my Father teach us to shoot a gun or rifle, fear factor. We would see my Grandpa, and Dad come back from a neighbors pond, or woods with squirrels, fish, even a snapping turtle my Grandpa loved to eat??? Back then neighbors shared their land!!! Never met my Moms Dad, meat with potato's, she was born in 1914 you get the time frame!!! Still I have one picture somewhere, no one wanted at a sell the city house, photos in a trunk for sale, One photo of my Grandfather on his farm, of two mules, he was holding them both head to him, a model T in the background, He loved, Loved, LOVED Mules, there was one photo, I don't have of my Mother as a toddler, sitting on the back of a dapple grey Mule, and my Granny had her farm dress opened up under this photo to catch her if she fell? But even though there might have been horse flies around this Mule, it stayed steady for my Mother not to be hurt!!! One fact that I remember, don't know if it is solid true, that a mule would not step into a wire snare, where a horse would not know that the snare was even there!!! That is my story, and I remember much of my life from your information!!! Robert

    Perfect timing Brett!! I just finished packing for a trip down to the Rio Grande. Going to primitive camp for a few days and fishing my way down the river. Nice to catch your video before I’m out of cell range for a while. Bonny looks great, she has style and nice size… she could end up being worth a lot to the right person. Her reigning really easy around the dogs is great. She hasn’t boogered to anything. She’s smooth and gentle… man I really think you got a hell of mule already and she’s gonna get better and better. She’s still figuring you out just like you’re learning her.
  • Thats a nice big mule and should carry you all day also i raise straight timothy hay in squares for 7 bucks if gas wasnt so high, id bring a load down. Have fun ol son!
  • @drifter50038
    I feed pellets. Alfalfa/bermuda mix. A Lower protein and sugar % more in balance with a horses design. Costs more out the gate, but depending on the horse , the feed efficiency is SO much better as well as virtually eliminating waste (all that stems and duff left on the ground) you feed 15 to as much as 25% less weight. So less $$$ Sand colic is pretty much gone (you feed in a tub not in the dirt) As well as all the other colics... the only colics I've had in 50+ years was with horses on hay. (Which it's hard to find any GOOD hay to begin with) the pellet makers pay people to line up quality crops. They eat it up quicker but I feed three to four times a day. The smaller amounts in multiple feeds more closely lines up with a horses natural rhythm And then, for people going into national forest and wilderness areas, you don't have to mess with hunting down "certified weed free". The processing to produce the pellets takes care of that. Just buy pellets at least 3/8 diameter (not the little rabbit size) and eliminate choking hazard with the hogs that gulp their feed... My 3 cents...

    Bonnie and Clyde works great for names. Beardless wheat around here is triticale. Most of it is cut as silage for dairies here.
  • Brert, listening to you tell about the land, the stories and your working Bonnie is a high light I look forward to every week. So enjoy watching and listening to the dogs barking and trailing. Thanks for sharing.
  • @roxorange6022
    I fed my horse timothy chaff, low sugar and high fibre. Like you I avoided lucerne and spring grass like the plague! Hope you can get something suitable at a better price. Nice looking mule, she seems to be responding well to the bonding. Enjoying this very much. Go well!
  • @OldSgtsMaj52
    One of the things I have noticed about your recent videos is that Slow is Smooth and Smooth is Fast. The Process of getting her ready to ride and your subsequent contact and talking to her while doing so is the correct way to go with her. Hopefully she will serve your passion well for many years to come.
  • @gradypalmer718
    Love all your videos but really like these training videos. Keep up the good work.
  • @rockhunter6260
    Brett, I don’t know about $50,000 but, a well trained animal is priceless 👍🏻
