Traditionally, the Gypsy Horse is involved in every aspect of family life, faithfully pulling the caravan wagon by day, while still being patient enough to teach the gypsy children to ride when the day is done. The horses are tethered at the campsite with the family caravan when they are not working. They live and thrive in all types of weather grazing on the grasses that happen to be growing along the side of the roads. The heartiness and exceptional disposition of these horses are their trademarks. They are known for being one of the most docile and gentle horses in the world.

These horses come with many names, the most common being "Gypsy Cob", also known as a "Gypsy Vanner", "Irish Tinker" or "Irish Cob" and others.  One of the last existing nomadic horse cultures in the world, travelers are inexorably bound to their horses.  Theirs is a passionate relationship: the gypsies love and deep appreciation for fine horses, and the horse’s dedication to their work and the families they protect. 

The breed was developed as a lighter, agile versatile working horse whose primary job was to pull the family’s living wagon or vardo. Lives depended upon the horse in the shafts. This unique living arrangement between horse and man has shaped this breed; a horse that was mentally unsound was not used or bred. Appearance did not earn a horse the rights to breeding. Willingness, dependability and soundness of mind were the most desired traits.

They have originated mainly from the UK and can now be found in many countries throughout the world.  The Gypsy horse has been gaining popularity where-ever they have been seen due to their amazing people orientated temperaments and magical looks.   These horses are also known for their versatality being seen in the dressage arena's, show-jumping, harness, endurance and even reining and stockwork.

He is an all round, fun horse for young and old alike.  Perfect for youngsters, since his temperament lends easily, for children. Older people like him for his often smaller size and dependability.
