| History of the Gypsy Vanner Horse and Gypsy Vanner Horse Society Registry Breed Standards The Gypsy Vanner Horse is a beautiful and rare breed envisioned by the Gypsies of Great Britain. This horse was selectively bred for over half a century from a vision to create the perfect caravan horse. The genetic origins of the breed include Shire, Clydesdale, and other native British ponies such as the Dales. In addition to the Vanner's amazing looks, the breed possesses a temperament that is friendly and engaging. Easy to train, smart and willing, these horses have it all. Although originally bred to pull the gypsy wagon, these horses are pulling carriages, being ridden in dressage, hunt seat, saddle seat, western and bareback, even jumping and placing in gymkhana and reining. Whichever you prefer, the Gypsy Vanner is doing it all. This horse is also a wonderful family horse, and popular for trail rides due to their unflappable nature.
