Charlie Boland

Charlie Boland breeds Percheron horses in Bethany, Missouri, serving northwest Missouri near Kansas City. With more than a decade of hands-on experience, Charlie Boland participates in national farm horse associations and prioritizes routine hoof trimming and regular veterinary health screenings.

The horses are raised on open pasture and receive daily turnout, early handling to encourage calm temperaments, and individual attention for both social development and physical conditioning. The stable reflects a family tradition of draft horse care, blending gentle handling with practical training suited for 4-H programs and light agricultural work. Many owners note the gentle disposition and solid build of these Percherons, traits that support their versatility and long-term soundness.

Foals are introduced to gentle halter work within weeks of birth and receive supplementary feeding with locally sourced hay and grain blends tailored for growth. Broodmares live in small herds to encourage natural social structure, and seasonal worming and dental checkups are scheduled to maintain overall herd health.
