Our blue & white roans have been with us since they were babies. 15.1hh, rising 5. Can not understate just how marvellous these two are. Toby is featured here. He's a very happy horse, very kind, just incredibly nice, honest & an absolute pleasure to be around. Any home would be lucky to have him. Often people advertise young horses have seen it all. Often this is simply untrue. However, never once have we lied...& this little fellow is in a class of his own. 🥕 better value than the UK, but then again, we're talking about our reputation speaks loud & clear & we hold it very dear ❤️

Something a bit different from us; two superb, sane geldings, 15.1hh rising 5. Draft/Selle horse crosses. They've been with us for a long time; in order to grow up, to have our foundation education & learn our way of life.
We are NOT in and out merchants...
They've worked in heavy traffic & ticked our boxes. For us, it's about the brains. If they're with us, there's a good reason for that. They would suit a family who can put on the finishing buttons & want options open for schooling. Open to any vetting, nothing to hide. Comments ARE followed, please feel free to message us for 🥕 🇫🇷

Warning; spooky horse!...well maybe; our video's may sometimes release panic; no panic needed if you trust your horse & your horse trusts you...then anything is possible. ❤️

Loading problems? We don't have loading problems. Why? Because they've learned since youngsters plus they've always been transported considerately. Just William, is on his way; too his new life & his new mum!

The most magnificent Just William has stolen a heart & will shortly be leaving us. 8yrs old, 16hh, as solid & as sane as the rest of our Normandy Cobs. Each & every one of our horses make us so proud. Please click on the link, watch the full video & ask yourself; who wouldn't want to own a horse capable of this bravery, this honesty & this willingness? ❤️

A little look into our De Jy's daily lives. 4 & 5 yrs old. As Franck rightly describes magnifique, he also tenderly calls them 'his girls' This is not 'natural' horsemanship..it's horsemanship. NONE of our horses are in full-time work until we select the right home for them. We know it seems radical compared to the UK ways, but the longest path is the shortest path with horses. Allowing them to be just horses, is the surest path of all....❤️

Following on from our previous post; hard hat ✔️ not riding side saddle ✔️ no pink shirt ✔️🤭 However, this clip is still different; because this Normandy 'Cob' is the lightest version available. For those of you that would like a sound hacking horse, yet able to do dressage, XC & jumping, then you need not look any further. We produce 6 a year, we are the only breeders who produces the original Normandy Cob, a century ago, known as the Carrossier. We are exceptionally proud of them. They are not spooky, but they are akin to a warm blood, but with carefully considered breeding & a cool Normandy cob head. Available to homes who are ' riders' or those who have an entourage who will continue a correct education. They are very rare, very honest. They've never left our hands, we owe them that. They are our De Jy's (of Jouvin) bone, substance & presence. ❤️

Yes, yes, we realise a 'terrible' crime has been committed here; Charly forgetting his hard hat? Riding side saddle? Or possibly the pink shirt 🤔 we'll let you decide... Our generous natured Normandy Cobs. Not prone to unexpected reactions...We are increasingly imitated, but never duplicated.. 🇨🇵 .

Lots of discussion on the Internet currently about this breed after Royal Ascot, Thames Valley Mounted police & Horse & Hound have written about them. So! To clarify; no, they are not Suffolk Punches. They are Normandy Cobs; another rare breed. They come in 3 different frames; the lightweight, the middleweight & the heavyweight. A lot of interest has been generated. So to demistify here are the three types 🥰 we are the only full-time breeders of this versatile breed. Established 1971, so in fairness we should know...thank you all who have responded & correctly identified the breed. 🇨🇵

So, today two Normandy cobs were chosen to provide security to the King and his entourage on the Royal Windsor parade. They're not difficult to spot; the Chestnut beefcakes! What an honour to make the grade. A few weeks ago another of our Normandy Cobs; Betty Dora drove the Princess Royal on a private drive around the beautiful island of Sark. Proud doesn't even begin to describe it. This indeed is how legends are made & with all our hearts, we wish our own legend who breathed life into this almost lost breed, our founder Georges Jouvin could have seen these activities. Rebecca Helen 🇨🇵❤️💪
