Circle G Ranch:  "
It was completely by accident that we found our first Gypsy Vanner on the Internet. After spending a year of watching the horse and speaking with owners, we imported our first filly, Bakalo, a yearling at the time and waited anxiously for her arrival from Wisbech, Cambridgeshire, England.

Our lives were so changed by this little filly that just a short 4 months later, we imported our mare Fantasia. They are everything we were expecting and so very much more! Beyond the exquisite beauty of the Gypsy Vanner is a horse that is enchanting, incredibly versatile and with a temperament that is unequaled in the equine world.

We plan to purchase a few more Gypsy Vanners so that we may offer for sale a few quality foals each year. The Gypsy Vanner Horse must possess a certain look and meet a clear conformation standard, ensuring that we may reproduce the same quality horse that the ancient Romany Gypsy dreamed of."  John & Sheila Gordon

The Gypsy Horse was bred and developed many generations ago by the Romany Travelers of Wales, England and Ireland. The Gypsies desired a small draft horse colorful enough to match their caravans. These horses are easily recognizable by their long, flowing manes and tails, and the abundance of feather on their legs. 

The Gypsy Vanner Horse was developed from a combination of the Friesian, Shire, Clydesdale and Dales pony. All of these breeds have the wonderful personality of a cold blooded horse.
