Hip 37 TMR Prince of Hearts 2019 Gypsy Vanner Gelding

Description:

Meet Big Foot, the pony that will steal your heart—and then go to work like a full-sized horse. Standing at 13.2 hands, this 6-year-old red roan Gypsy Pony gelding is a one-in-a-million package: fancy, fun, feathered, and fully capable. From his striking roan coat to his abundance of mane, tail, and feather, he looks like he stepped right out of a fairytale—but don’t let the looks fool you. Big Foot isn’t just cute—he’s broke, experienced, and ready to go to work or have fun doing just about anything.

Big Foot is broke to both ride and drive, with a solid,  and quiet feel under saddle and in harness. He lopes off soft and correct, has a good stop, smooth transitions, and carries himself with true self-carriage. He rides balanced, willingly moves off your leg, and stays soft in the bridle. He sidepasses, pivots, opens gates, and is responsive without being reactive. Whether you’re riding bareback with a halter or in full tack, Big Foot is dependable, comfortable, and tuned in. He’s just as handy for a full day’s work as he is for a quiet trail ride or a drive around the neighborhood.

He’s been used for real ranch work—pushing, sorting, and gathering cattle!  He’ll drag the calf sled, open and close gates, and go wherever you point him, all with a calm, can-do attitude. This little guy might be small in stature, but he has the try, grit, and work ethic of a full-sized ranch gelding. He’s confident in any setting, not intimidated by larger animals, and can hold his own in a pen full of cows. When it comes to effort and heart, Big Foot doesn’t know how to quit.

On the trail, Big Foot is a dream. He’s sure-footed, brave, and steady across water, over logs, through brush, and out alone or in a group. He doesn’t get in a hurry but stays forward and focused. He’s the kind of pony you can trust in unfamiliar places, with a great brain and a calm, curious nature. He’s handled dogs, goats, pigs, wildlife, tractors, tarps, and just about anything else you’d find on a working ranch or busy trail.

But what really makes Big Foot special is his fun-loving personality. He’s full of character and charm—the kind of horse you want to spend time with. He loves people, enjoys learning, and has mastered a few party tricks that make him even more lovable. He sidepasses to the mounting block, carries a flag with pride, drags the calf sled, and even lays down. He’s a quick learner with a bright mind and a good sense of humor. His combination of talent, brains, and personality makes him just as fun to play with as he is to ride.

Big Foot is easy to catch, great to saddle and bridle, and stands like a gentleman for grooming, farrier work, and harnessing. He hauls well, stands tied quietly, and settles in anywhere. He’s been exposed to commotion, noise, and unpredictable environments, and handles it all with a steady mind and willing attitude.

If you’re looking for a finished, reliable, and incredibly adorable gelding that’s just as capable as he is cute, Big Foot checks every box. He’s the ultimate combination of flash, function, and fun—perfect for handy kids, adults, or anyone who appreciates a well-trained pony with a huge heart. Whether you're headed to the ranch, the trail, the cart, or just the mounting block with a flag and a smile, Big Foot is always ready for the ride.

Big Foot’s breeding leaves nothing left to be desired. His sire SD BraveHeart was imported by the prestigious “The Mane Ranch” of Bolivar, Missouri and his dam a beautiful mare directly from foundation bloodlines from across the pond. This breeding program is known for beautiful, breed standardized, and gentle stock, which Big Foot is a prime example of. His perfect feather, mane, tail, demeanor and mustache just goes to show what a high quality breeding program he came from. 

Big Foot is also current on absolutely everything. He’s up to date on dental work, routine chiropractic care, vaccinations, deworming, and farrier maintenance. He’s been managed with care and consistency, and it shows in his health, soundness, and demeanor.
