Benny Braungardt

Benny Braungardt is a Percheron breeder in Moscow Mills, MO, serving Lincoln County and the St. Louis area. He has been raising draft horses for over ten years while following guidelines set by national breed associations and conducting routine health screenings including X-rays and blood panels.

His horses live on pasture with open stall access and receive regular veterinary checkups along with farrier work and dental exams. Year-round turnout ensures strong bone development and social bonds among the herd. Foals are introduced to daily handling and light work gradually to build confidence.

The breeding program emphasizes gentle temperaments suited for farm work, driving and therapy settings. The farm’s history dates back several generations of livestock stewardship, and local owners note the calm nature and sound conformation of his horses. Benny often shares insights with fellow breeders at regional workshops, fostering a community focused on animal welfare.
