Cora Strigotte

Cora Strigotte breeds Shire horses in Mahomet, IL, in Champaign County and central Illinois near Urbana. Cora Strigotte has been involved in breeding Shire horses for several years and maintains membership in the American Shire Horse Society. Each foal receives comprehensive veterinary care with routine health testing, farrier visits, and dental exams through a local equine specialist.

She emphasizes gentle handling and early exposure to varied environments, allowing young stock to develop confidence around farm machinery, other livestock, and children. Horses are raised in spacious pastures with access to sheltered pens, and Cora maintains a rotating grazing schedule to preserve pasture health. Her farm dates back three generations, blending traditional care with mindful attention to each animal’s temperament. Several of her foals have placed in local draft horse shows and now serve in therapeutic riding programs. Local trainers note the horses’ calm disposition and sound conformation.
