Charles Alexander

Charles Alexander, Shire horses, Mapleton, UT in Utah County and the Wasatch Range near Provo are dedicated breeders of Shire horses. They have been raising Shire horses for over a decade and hold memberships in recognized equine associations, with regular health screenings for all broodmares and foals. Foals spend their early months in open pasture, where daily socialization helps build a calm and trusting temperament.

Their approach emphasizes natural herd dynamics and hands-on training, so horses adapt well to both driving and light farm work. With a family tradition of equestrian care, their farm combines gentle handling practices and spacious turnout areas. Local riders note the horses’ steady disposition and readiness to learn. They provide guidance on hoof care and forage-based nutrition plans that promote steady growth. Their farm has hosted educational visits, giving insight into the gentle nature and strength of Shire horses.
