Brent Smith

Brent Smith is a Percheron breeder in King, NC in the Piedmont region near Winston-Salem. He has more than a decade of experience with draft horses and follows the American Percheron Society’s guidelines for health testing, conformation evaluation and responsible breeding. His foals are raised in small family groups on rolling pastures to encourage social development and ease of transition.

Daily grooming, turnout across shaded paddocks and balanced feeding plans help each horse build strength and a calm temperament. The farm’s stone-stacked fencing and restored barns honor the region’s agricultural roots while offering spacious stalls and sheltered loafing areas. Training routines focus on groundwork and trail acclimation to prepare horses for farm work, parades or show ring duties. Prospective owners often mention his patience during visits and clear communication about each animal’s health history and training milestones. Health care includes regular farrier work, dental checks and seasonal vaccinations tailored to equine needs and local veterinary recommendations.
