Chriona is our very first Gypsy Vanner horse – in fact, the first horse that we have ever owned! We asked Deirdre Cash of Clononeen Farm in Ireland to recommend to us a smaller stature piebald Gypsy mare, with good conformation, luxurious feathers, already trained to ride and drive, and with a strong desire to be our best friend! And we wanted a mare already in foal to an excellent stallion. A tall request – but Deirdre answered that she had a beautiful mare that would fit us right down to the ground! We are so blessed with Deirdre’s good taste in horses, and to have Chriona is our lives as a result!!! Chriona has successfully delivered 3 foals for us since being imported in 2005, all with excellent conformation and super, sweet personalities:
Rivendell Shadowfax - sire Clononeen Poitin
Rivendell Evenstar - sire Latcho Drom
Rivendell Chriona’s Keela - sire Dazzle Dance

An added bonus: Chriona is in foal to Pride and Joy for a 2008 foal!
