Homemade Mule Cake

I made this Mule Cake cake for my grandfather's 90th birthday celebration as requested by my father. This is the 2nd original cake I've ever made. I searched and searched for a mule cake but could only find horse cakes, so I'm posting this in case there's anyone else that might need a mule cake!

I used 3 box cake mixes, 4 chocolate icings, and 1 white icing with about 2 spoonfuls dyed black/grey for the ear. I also used black fondant for the nostrils and eye. I don't usually use store bought icing for piping and won't do it again. Your hand will ache afterward!
