'A THOUSAND POUNDS OF LOVE' A Mendon couple is turning heads by training water buffalo and riding them on the streets of the small northern Utah town.
"In the beginning I think I saw a picture of a Vietnamese boy playing a flute on the back of a water buffalo," Heers explained."Since I was in high school I thought it would be wonderful to own one of the majestic animals."
"I found a water buffalo dairy in California where this very nice lady was milking a herd of water buffalo making mozzarella cheese and of course she was very happy to find a good home for the boys," Mary said. "He would come when you called him and [it] was just fun to take a book out to the pasture... and just lean against him and read," Mary said.
"Art really took on the challenge," Mary said."He bought a saddle from a neighbor and takes him out for a ride pretty much every day."The couple has a goal in mind for their precious water buffalo. They hope to get it well trained enough to walk in the Mendon Pioneer Day parade. Right now, Art is working on getting the animal acclimated to other people, kids and cars.
