Linda

Hi! I am Linda Dennis, Owner - Manager

North Star Gypsy ~ Gypsy Horses Oregon

and

Sterling Spring Farm Miniature Horses

I have been breeding, raising and showing horses since the mid 80's. In recent years coordinating and managing Gypsy Horse Shows as committee chair for the first ever

Gypsy Horse show in the USA, and it's annual succeeding ones during the Oregon State Fair's Open Gypsy Horse Show since 2004; and including American Gypsy Horse Breed Association's Yreka show in Fall 2007.

The passion for horses and animals came at an early age. Life has provided opportunity for fulfilling the yearnings and bonds with some very special creatures. My childhood dog Whitey made for some very special memories in those formative years of learning about caring and respecting animals. In my early adult years it was Strider, the very elegant and noble Doberman. She taught me so much.

The K-9 affection led me to being a volunteer with the "Greyhounds for Pets" organization....fostering and evaluating cast away dogs from the dog racing industry, in an effort to place them in adoptive homes.

I have been involved over the years with the Simian Aides "Helping Hands for the Handicapped", monkeys that are helpers to the disabled; many years as a 4H leader in the Dog Obedience~Dog Show program and

4H Rabbit management and showing.

Horses...I am one of the lucky ones who was born with the love for them. Found my horsey fixes with connections to those who were fortunate to own them, as my family was unable to provide me the opportunity to coexist with a horse. Horses become a part of my life, after most of the responsibility of raising four children was completed. Have raised, shown and enjoyed the pleasures of Miniature Horses for a lot of years now. The remarkable Gypsy Horses are a wonderful addition to my life. Around here, it is horses......

morning to night!

Would not have it any other way!

The Gypsy Horses of
