Editor’s Note GQUINE It is an honor and pleasure to present to you all, the very first edition of Gquine Magazine. This edition, being the very first magazine that I have published has most definitely been a labor of love. And whether you call them Vanners, Cobs, Tinkers or just Gypsies, we hope that everyone who loves and appreciates this amazing breed of horse can come together and celebrate them within these pages. We want to give a special thank you to everyone who believed in us and purchased an ad in this first edition. You trusted us that we would honor your investment, and we hope that you can be proud to showcase your business, stallion, event or horses with us. So, please enjoy and thank you again, from the very bottom of my heart.
