Black Cob Mare - Gypsy

[SmokieJoe]

My friend has recently bought a lovely black cob mare, she is 5 years old and she belonged to gypsies. She is very quiet and so so gorgeous, she has massive feathers and i spent ages today getting her mane to go wavey.

She is a typical gypsy cob, measures around 13.2hh, heavy boned, all black except for a white blaze.

She is trying to find a name for her, something that would suit her gypsy background!

She was broke in by gypsies at the age of 10 months! She is a dream, i lunged her the other day (never did that before! im a newbie lol). She went great.

She has been rode and she is apparently easy handled, i just love her big feathery legs!

Im 5ft 9 so im a bit big for her lol, saying that, shes like a barrel lol

Shame its not a gelding or I would suggest 'Tarmac' - As in can we tarmac your drive love?!!!! Sorry - Like Heather though.

Crystal? Don't think it's an interesting name, though!

Ive actually met the man that owned her and hes a very nice man, i dont think i should be calling them gypsies, more travelling folk.

She got her other horse from the same man, and she got this cob mare for a good price. God im so jealous lol

I'll go with Peggy or Rosie Lee. My present black cob is Peggy and I had a gypsy cob called Rosie Lee, although she was coloured. Failing that, how about Della!

 

[JoBo]

ELLA!

It's a wonderful girly name, it's what my coloured pony is called!

 

[sammys ma]

How about Bess or Bessy?

I had a black Cob Mare called that...really suited her!
she sounds lovely....can't wait to see pics!

Where is the man who sells them based out of interest?

I know a lovely cob, although Piebald that is simply called Gypsy, suits her too.
