TO THE BREED
AND OUR CUSTOMERS
We at Elite Gypsy Horses know the feeling!
When we decided to make Gypsy Horses our breed of choice, we knew we had to make sure, that none of our customers, would ever have to go through some of the stresses associated with new horse ownership.
Great horse ranches and great customer service, is never an accident. It requires absolute and total commitment. Complete dedication by the owners is a must.
FOALS AND YOUNG STOCK
ALL of our youngsters will be wormed, vaccinated, and completely vetted sound, before leaving for your home. They will have all had considerable handling and will stand for grooming, lead, tie and trailer. They will be up to date on vaccinations, according to age and have a current Coggins. If necessary, their feet will also have been trimmed before leaving our property. We have five of our own children, ranging in age from 10 to 18 years, who interact daily with all our horses. We also have 10 dogs, so our young horses are all used to pretty much everything by the time they are weaned.
OLDER AND MATURE STOCK
Our professional ranch trainers, work and exclusively train using gentling techniques rooted in Natural Horsemanship. This approach permanently instills the young and older horse alike, with trust and confidence. Traits that make for ideal, lifelong companions.
Many of our older and mature stock, which we offer for sale, are already trained to the cart or have had time under saddle. Some have both.
As with our youngsters, our older stock will be wormed, vaccinated, and completely vetted sound, before leaving for your home. They will have all had considerable handling and will stand for grooming, lead, tie and trailer. They will be up to date on vaccinations, according to age and have a current Coggins. If necessary, their feet will also have been trimmed before leaving our property. They will have been handled by grownups and children and become used to all our dogs.
If for some reason, we know of a particular quirk one has, you will be honestly told of it before purchase. You will be apprised of where an individual is in our herd regarding pecking order. This way, you will know how to introduce him or her, to your own herd.
STALLION SERVICE
All stallions stand with a live foal guarantee with return the next year. A different mare owned or leased by contract may be substituted. Shipped semen may be split and used for multiple mares at no extra charge, but LFG will apply to only one mare.
For breeding costs, please see our individual stallion pages.
For live cover and boarding at the farm: $9 per day for the mare, $12 per day with foal. Box stall with paddock turn-out by day. Additional breedings (this year or past breeding) discount $100 on each stallion.
Shipped semen is available for our stallions. Breeding fees are as posted on their individual pages.
A collection fee of $250, subject to changes in the veterinarian's charges, will be charged for shipment or for local AI use.
Our farm veterinarian's clinic is well qualified in equine reproduction both at our farm and their hospital. We try to keep costs to a minimum yet achieving the goal of pregnancy. Our stallions are tested regularly for maximum fertility.
These bloodlines are not often to be found today in the United States, so if you are a student of lineage, do consider our lovely boys.
OUR GUARANTEES
We know our horses. We will guarantee your purchase 100%. If for some reason, you must return your horse within 30 days, we will happily offer you another horse of similar quality. If you find you can not keep your horse after the 30 days, we will gladly help place your horse in a new home, or board it at our ranch until the new home is found.
We are always available by telephone - day or night, should you have a question. We feel our responsibility does not end, when the money changes hands. We want our customers happy and confident in their purchase and know that we will always be there for help and guidance, if necessary. Our customers deserve no less.
Should you have any questions, please don't hesitate to email us or give us a call.
Should you seek a particular horse which you don't find for sale on our pages here, let us know your needs and we will happily point you in the direction of honest and knowledgeable breeders.
Debra and Jeff.
