Connie J. Kahrs

Connie J. Kahrs is a Percheron breeder in Franklin, NE, in southern Nebraska near Lincoln. She has over a decade of hands-on experience, follows breed registry guidelines with regular health testing of mares and stallions, and invests in continuing education through breeding workshops.

Each breeding mare is selected for temperament and conformation, and foaling occurs in a dedicated stall monitored 24/7. Horses are raised on rotational pasture with access to sheltered stalls and open-run shelters. They receive daily handling from foaling through weaning and early exposure to ground driving and carriage work. A balanced diet of hay and grain is tailored to each horse’s developmental needs, and a professional farrier attends the farm on a regular schedule.

The family-run farm emphasizes gentle training methods and strong temperament, allowing young stock to develop confidence and versatility. Clients often comment on the calm dispositions and sturdy bone structure that reflect careful lineage selection and attentive care.
