50 years ago, the only time I ever jumped massive outdoor jumps, I rode a Gypsy Cob in Cornwall. I felt safe with him like a baby in the mothers arms. He did all of it himself. I held on to the massive mane and let him do his thing. I'll never forget him...:-)

Yes Alyssa, there was a horse that changed my life. Her name was Tinka Montana a Gypsy Cob and she passed away at the age of 25 last december. I owned her for more then 13 years and we had such a connection that we understood each other with the blink of an eye. We had so many adventures together and she saved my life twice too. She was a very intelligent horse with a strong personality. I still miss her every day. Now i own a dream of a 5 year old Gypsy Vanner called Ella, who is such a sweetie. She is in training now under the saddle to get used to trafffic and so on. Soon we will start her training for pulling a horsecart.

I owned my own horse as a teenager (30+ yrs ago) and always had a dream of one day owning a gypsy. I'm 48 yrs old now, found my gypsy (1yr old silver black tobiano filly) and we just sold our house in suburbia, bought 2 acres in the country and we are going to have her and rescue horses...at 50 years old, with no experience, and it's all going to be amazing. Gypsy cobs are food for the soul. We are in love with her and I'm guessing we won't stop at 1.

Such lovely horses! And nice people too! Yeah mine was Ivan the Mérens pony. He was a pony at my riding school and I think as far as I remember they got him and another Mérens from some meadow where they were neglected but supposedly had been ridden at some point and also been coach horses. They were absolutely terrified of whips. So... don't know what really happened to them before. He bucked me off more times than any other pony ever did (and that is saying something because I was always riding the bucking ponies and was basically glued to the saddle at that point. I thought I knew all the tricks and it didn't faze me much anymore because I knew I could sit it out.) He did the wildest combos of bucking, spinning, stopping, sprinting away, trying to rub your legs off on the wall... but it was different every time. I could never feel out a rhythm to stay on because he always hit me out of left field with something. At one point I told the owners I wasn't going to ride him anymore, because I got scared and thought it was too dangerous. I couldn't figure him out. (Not to mention these were all ponies I was supposed to learn from technically - well it did teach me great posture lol) Anyways the stable was very focused on horse-oriented riding, the way that was most healthy for a horse and taught us why we did certain things and how it strengthens which muscles etc. and he was frequently checked health-wise. His gear was checked etc. He did have some problems with his bladder but even after "fixing" everything he was just as likely to buck. At some point I got back on him because I really loved him. He was super funny and had so much personality. It took a while to get him on my side but I just had to work out that extremely fine line of not letting him get away with things because he knew he could and also not putting too much pressure on him because he'd lock up on that and then explode. Firm and clear but not too firm and take it all with a sense of humor. That was extremely hard for me. I must've been around 14 at the time I think. One time when he started bucking and pulling his head down I just basically threw away the reins and told him to go forward and that really took him by surprise I think and he just stopped and walked on lol Before that I probably always tried to pull the head back up. It did take longer than that one time to fully break the habit but I wasn't so scared anymore. In the end I rode him with and without saddle, we did little jumps, whenever he did test the limits again it was playful and I laughed and it was fine. He was the best once that inital seal was broken and it was the one horse I ever really felt like he was working truly with me as a partner through and through. I had to earn it but when I did he was the absolute best. It took years. I never had to work so hard to win a horse over before or after. He was absolutely not a pony for a riding school obviously. He did have to work sometimes other than with me but he probably didn't earn his keep in the slightest lol. The stables were great though and looking out for every pony's needs as much as possible. I had said to them 'before they'd sell him I'd buy him' (but I was still in school at the time...). When I left for work after I finished school I still came back every other week to visit and ride him and around that time a friend of the owners lost a horse and needed a partner for their other horse and they tried to contact me to see if I wanted to buy him but there were technical problems with my phone and I didn't see it in time. When I came back 2 weeks later he was gone. Absolutely heartbroken. But they did explain what had happened and showed me photos of his new home and even gave me the contact details of the new owners and told me I was welcome to visit him. But I couldn't bring myself to do it. I thought I couldn't go through saying goodbye to him. Now 10 years later I wish I had. It would've been extremely hard but coming to his empty box and not finding him out in the field either truly gutted me. I'm glad I took some videos and lots of photos of him even though the videos aren't great at least I have them still. I rode a lotttt of ponies and horses and they were all great in their own way but he will always always stand out

Wow, what an adventure you had with Ivan! I'm so sorry to hear that he was gone before you were able to buy him. It sounds like he helped you become the rider you are today, but you also helped him get through a point in his life where he was scared and felt he had to react poorly to requests from riders. You gave him an opportunity to live his life in a much better way. Thanks for sharing your story with him. 💜

As a young girl, the mare had postpartum complications and eventually passed. Was bound and determined to keep my four legged baby alive. Got in trouble for bringing General in my bedroom and bottle feeding him so I slept outside in the barn with him. Had my best friend for 32 years. Life hasn’t been the same. He seen me at some of my worst times and loved me, he was included in my wedding, my two daughters grew up with him, and was around for over half my life. Couldn’t be more blessed. Miss you buddy 💕🌻

Gipsy cob Jack changed everything because he shows me how to be with Horse and how much more it is than just exloring the woods on a top of a Horse. We walk, we talk and feel. Now I am blessed with two Gipsys and love how they teach me beeing a more sensitive human. ♥️🌈🦄🦄

We had a lot of wild adventures, too. He really did change my life and I agree that is it amazing how horses can do that. 💙 Also, gypsy cobs are so stunning and the ones I’ve met have been so sweet!

Sammy was a Quarter horse/Draft mix that I road when I was learning to ride English. He was the most beautiful cream colour with a light blonde mane and tail. Just the slightest touch of your heels had him off and moving. I remember one time, a bird spooked him and he reared up and took off on me. I just hung on until I could get him back under control. My teacher tried to tell me off but I told her what happened. After she was impressed. Because I was still a pretty beginner rider. Riding him made me fall in love with Drafts. I worked for a woman who had a couple of Cobs and I just fell in love. I wish I could have one and am SO JEALOUS as always!

And he’s a silver medal winner in the Dutch championships western trail. We did some dressage and working equitation and has pulled a cart and a sled on the odd day. Standing only 1.38m tall he has the character to leave a huge impression. He’s now enjoying grass and sun and the company of the herd, teaching my you gypsy x icelandichorse how to deal with me.😉 What stunning horses they have, great examples of the breed.

She is 16.3 hands (big for a quarter horse) and is a one man horse. Even my daughter cannot ride her without first asking permission (of the mare) and hoping she agrees. We have had her for 8 years now and there are still certain things I am the only one able to do with her. But one of the horses on our bucket list to purchase is a Cobb - along with possibly a Fresion.

@@rachelw8506 Forward is nice, and all horses have quirks, but you say it as if it's a bad thing. Were they all related? Or is there something in their environment that is a constant annoyance? Is there a person who is around a lot that makes them nervous? Or is there something missing in their training? Holes in their training is usually the source of problems. Were they all trained by the same person? There is definately a reason for it. The DNA in cobs ensures that they are just as gentle as the average Clydesdale. Not 100% foolproof, but extremely reliable. Something is wrong there for you to see such aberrant results. I do commend you for your caution about kids though. Very much so.

Unfortunately we have a lot of people breeding these cobs indiscriminently here in the UK, and it does no one good. I used to get to ride one before he passed away; he got gelded a little later than usual and did some hunting in his prime. He was also a bit taller than the accepted height range at 15.1hh, and this boy was a tank. Literally as wide as he was tall, and all 3 1/2 foot mane and feathers. Perfect gentleman for disabled and new riders. Someone that could ride gets on him? Oh boy, he'd be awkward but a bunch of fun. I used to ride him quite a bit amongst different levels of horses, did a swap where I started off on a different pony to him that week, only to laugh at the other rider struggling to get him to trot. At swap time, he knew it was all systems go and had a good few bucks in canter. I think the most memorable lesson was everyone in my class had been put on the advanced sport-horse types (All TB cross or some kind of warmblood) but I was put on the cob because my instructor thought he was absolutely hilarious when I rode him. He didn't disappoint; we were doing a simple upright -1stride-upright jumping, and a single stride would have pushed it for his stumpy legs. It was like sitting on a rocket, he was so forward going that at one point he caused one of the big horses to run out by barging them out of the way. Stride was horrific and we were jumping 3.3 feet, took off a mile away from the jump which had me hold his mane, lose my stirrups and try and go with it. He then decided to take that stride out and make a bounce out of 3.3 uprights. I nearly ate dirt at the end but he was so proud of himself lol. And through all this I didn't mention that he was like an armchair to ride. He also had a son that was GV x Irish cob. Big lad he was, but he had that same super comfy gait

I would love to own a gypsy cob some day! The horse that changed my life was a horse I bought 8 years ago. He was my first riding horse that I have owned! He is a Medicine Hat quarter horse! He was an old ranch/ rodeo horse. As a new rider still learning to ride friends told me to start with an older horse to learn how to ride and they were right! But how he changed my life was even though he was older 15 and out of his rodeo and ranching career. He was in his prime for trail riding in the mountains and deserts of the western US! It helped me learn and become a better rider knowing I could rely on his experience and skill but he also helped me become a better rider i he wouldn’t let me be lazy and do things the wrong or improper way! I had to retire him a year and a half ago due to his rodeo past but he happily lives out his retirement on my ranch! Thank you for all the experiences JD!!!!

My special horse is a Gypsy Cob mare! She changed my entire perception of equestrianism and the way of training. We didn't like each other at first (she wanted to buck me off!) but after some time, there was one lesson she trusted me, and the bond was created forever. I've always wanted a warmblood with jumping skills. Cobs don't look like it, but they are extremely good jumpers! Very honest, and brave. Mostly because of her, I am an empathetic, skilled (due to her bucking-off skills) rider, as I've always wanted to be.

💖🐎🙆 Awe, I just Love the Gypsy Cob. So Beautiful! Yes, the Feathers at the hooves are gorgeous. I love these Waterhouse's "this is another egg and biscuit breakfast buy" 😂 they have such an easy way with their lovely horses. Truly a Magical life. The Queen's Choice 👑 Stunning that deep gorgeous mahogany and bright dark eyes. and the little babies are so precious. Also, beautiful the Palomino Gypsy Cob. ALL are SO Special 🐴💝. When I was a little girl there were stables at the park. You could ride the whole giant park for $10.00. I saved up my $$. First I rode a beautiful gentle Paint horse-Hondo with one blue eye and pretty white and grey/black markings. He was my easy horse. So gentle and a real pleasure horse. Then later when I got to be a better rider they let me move up to Cherokee a Spirited deep Red Quarter horse with a long black mane and tail. Cherokee was always jumpin around prancin and showin off. I just loved him. He did have his own way of doing things. I was only 10 and he was a big giant horse so if he wanted to stop and eat some long grass-he did just that. When we got towards this big hill Cherokee would get excited and I just let him run. Man he was fast! I had to hold on for dear life! But he never bucked or threw me- he was a truly Amazing horse and I Loved him. That the stables allowed me to take these horses out for very long rides all by myself was a real gift because they didn't have to. I will always be grateful for those Experiences because those were some of the happiest days of my life 🐴🌲💖🌳🐎 ~
