Irish Cob Horses for sale

33 Irish Cob Horses for sale

The Irish Cob, also known as the Gypsy Cob or Gypsy Vanner, is a distinctive horse breed originating from Ireland and the United Kingdom. Bred by the Romani Travellers to pull their caravans, this breed became prized for its strength, stamina, and calm temperament. Physically, Irish Cobs are compact and powerful horses, typically standing between 13.2 to 16 hands tall. They are easily recognised by their abundant feathering on the legs and their striking piebald or skewbald coats. Their thick, flowing mane and tail add to their iconic appearance. Temperament-wise, Irish Cobs are exceptionally gentle, calm, and reliable, making them excellent family horses suitable for novice riders and therapeutic riding programmes. Their versatility extends to riding, driving, and showing, solidifying their popularity. However, they require care attention, especially regular grooming of their feathering to prevent skin issues. In the UK market, keywords such as \"cobs for sale\", \"Irish cob for sale\", and \"gypsy cob for sale\" are commonly searched, reflecting high interest in purchasing these beloved horses.
