Chocolate Horse Farm

Chocolate Horse Farm is a Gypsy vanner breeder in Mt Vernon, MO, serving the Ozarks near Springfield. Carol Dunbar has bred Gypsy vanners for over a decade and maintains memberships with the Gypsy Vanner Horse Society. All horses undergo routine health testing and live in pasture-based environments with regular veterinary care.

Each broodmare is selected for gentle demeanor and sound conformation, with pedigrees that emphasize classic Gypsy vanner traits such as striking feather and strong bone structure. Their foals begin daily handling in a family barn where socialization and early ground training are woven into each day.

Chocolate Horse Farm carries a heritage of farmstead values that date back to local equestrian traditions, and several horses have earned amateur titles in regional shows. Attention to temperament, conformation, and ongoing pasture turnout reflects a philosophy centered on balanced development and lasting partnerships. Routine farrier visits and dental exams are scheduled to support healthy growth and sound movement from the start.
