I know a muffelo isn't exactly an oxen but it's a similar kind of buffalo, bison thing. And at the moment it can even carry its own body weight, or an over weight colonist, lol.
Perhaps a way would be, to "overload" the animal. Which gives a negative speed like "Movement x 50% because auf overload".
I think it needs a real twerk, 200kg at the least but able to carry 300kg but with each 10kg over 200 a 10% movement penalty. So a muffelo carrying 250kg will have a 50% speed reduction, slowing the whole caravan down.
