Chris Powell

Chris Powell is a Percheron breeder in Highland, UT, serving Utah County and the Wasatch Front near Provo. Powell has been raising Percheron horses for over a decade and maintains membership in the Percheron Horse Association of America, with all breeding stock receiving regular veterinary exams and genetic screenings.

Foals are reared on pasture with daily handling from birth, introducing them to farm machinery and light groundwork to foster calm dispositions. Mature horses live in open paddocks with shelter and clean water, and their routine includes turnout with herd mates to support natural social bonding.

The breeding program emphasizes sound structure and willingness, traits that have led to placings in regional draft horse demonstrations and peaceable partners for local farms. Visitors often note the horses’ steady gaits and gentle temperaments during farm visits. Pairings of proven mares and selected stallions are limited each season to maintain consistent quality and health.
