JULY 2014 The Vanner 2014 A Tribute to Cushti Bok Howard Franklin Classic, South Jordan, UT Feathered Horse Summer Classic, Williamston, NC A Tribute to Cushti Bok (GV00001F) 1991 – 2014 Who could have known a glance at a horse running in a field would lead to the recognition and protection of an unknown and rare breed? Cindy Thompson would ask her husband, Dennis, to turn around and go back for a closer look. Stepping out of the car and closing the doors would alert the stallion’s attention, rather than the typical fright and flight – he ran to them! Already he was like no other horse they had ever encountered. A Tribute to Cushti Bok (GV00001F) 1991 – 2014 Recalling that special moment Dennis Thompson has said, “There was magic in the air!” This beautiful and unusual stallion won them over and they would spend the next four years of their lives tracing his heritage and uncovering the breed he would become the symbol of – the Gypsy Vanner Horse. He arrived in America on Easter Sunday 1997 and his legacy began. The Gypsy Vanner Horse Society registry opened its books with horse number one – GV00001F – the stallion, Cushti Bok. His home was Gypsy Gold Farm in Ocala, Florida. He was loved and cherished by the Thompsons and all who had the good fortune to see him, get close to him, and to pet him. His breeding career gave us seventy plus offspring to carry on his magic. A Tribute to Cushti Bok (GV00001F) 1991 – 2014 For the Gypsy Vanner Horse breed there was one horse that started the ball rolling to introduce these incredible animals to the world – that one horse was Cushti Bok. He was the model for the GVHS logo, no matter where his image is found whether in calendars, on boxes of Luck and Love Horse Treats, or gracing the cover of the very first issue of The Vanner magazine , our attention is drawn to it – he doesn’t look real – he must be right out of a fairytale – and yet….. He was real; he was here; he stepped out of a Gypsy man’s dream and into the heart of Cindy Thompson, who from that first glance saw his value and along with her husband, Dennis took the steps to honor this breed and to give us all the chance to see and experience, the one, the only, the GVHS’ number one ………our beloved Cushti Bok. A Tribute to Cushti Bok (GV00001F) 1991 – 2014 While he left us quietly in the night, he lives on in the flick of a tail, a toss of a mane, a lowering of the head made by his sons and daughters. In those tiny antics for just a moment we see him again, we smile, he is not gone – he lives on. We will miss you Bok, but we will never forget you, we will with honor guard your legacy and share the beauty you brought us with all who care to ”Come and share the dream with us!” Feathered Horse Summer Classic Feathered Horse Summer Classic Feathered Horse Summer Classic THANK YOU!
