Amos D. Hershberger

Amos D. Hershberger, Percherons, Burton, Ohio, in Northeast Ohio near Cleveland. Hershberger has been breeding Percheron horses for over 15 years and holds membership in the American Percheron Horse Association. His horses are raised on a family-run farm with daily turnout, mixed-age socialization, and hands-on care to foster gentle, steady temperaments from an early age. Most foals are halter trained from weaning and exposure to light draft work before placement with careful transitions.

The farm’s rolling pastures and barn with heated stalls provide comfortable year-round care and seasonal paddocks for foaling. Owners often note the calm disposition and robust health that these horses display under saddle or in harness. He follows recommended veterinary screenings for joint health and reproductive soundness, and each horse undergoes routine farrier care. Several of his Percherons have placed at regional draft horse shows, reflecting their steady temperament and conformation.
