Foals are raised in open pastures with gradual introductions to groundwork, fostering confidence and adaptability from an early age. The barns feature individual stalls with soft bedding and ample ventilation, while paddocks are bordered by native stone walls that encourage natural movement. Many of his Percheron horses find roles in draft competitions, trail riding and light farm work, reflecting his focus on versatility and reliability in every animal. Several Percherons from his program have been praised by draft horse associations for their calm temperament during community parades and light draft demonstrations. Clients note the steady progress of each horse through personalized care and transparent communication about health and training updates.
