Arrington's

Arrington’s Percherons in Hillsdale, OK, are raised in southeastern Oklahoma near McAlester. Karen Arrington has bred horses for more than a decade under the guidelines of the American Percheron Horse Association, and each mare and foal undergo thorough veterinary evaluations, including annual soundness and genetic screenings. The farm’s rolling pastureland and open-stall barns are managed to promote natural movement and social herds.

Hands-on care begins at foaling, with daily handling to foster calm temperaments and early foundation work under saddle or harness. All horses receive free-choice grass hay, a balanced grain mix, and regular farrier visits to support healthy hooves and joints. Several of Arrington’s Percherons have earned ribbons at regional draft horse shows, praised for balanced gaits and willing dispositions. The farm’s approach centers on respect for each horse’s rhythm, nurturing reliable partners for families and enthusiasts seeking a gentle draft experience.
