I don't know -- they've started using miniature horses as assistance animals for the hearing impaired. Be hard to imagine much tolerance for one not housebroken.
The mules are steady-footed and tractable, yet still have a high self-preservation streak. They aren't as friendly, but they don't pester you to death with nudges for pats and strokes, either. Far better for a "war horse".
