Chris Villarrial

Chris Villarrial breeds Percheron horses in Ebensburg, PA, in Cambria County and the Allegheny Mountains near Johnstown. They follow recognized breed standards and perform routine health evaluations, including regular hoof inspections and vaccination protocols, to ensure sound conformation and overall well-being.

Foals are raised in a pasture-based environment with daily handling to foster gentle temperaments. The farm emphasizes balanced nutrition and turnout to support strong bone structure, healthy muscle development, and natural growth. Local farmers and riders commend the well-mannered young horses for their work ethic and adaptability. Each mare and foal pair receives individual stall space and seasonal access to grazing fields. The breeding program has grown from a family operation to a respected local source for sturdy draft horses. Early ground training focuses on basic commands and gentle introduction to harness work, preparing young horses for farm tasks or recreational driving.
