Crist D. Raber

Crist D. Raber, Percherons, Baltic, OH, in Ottawa County and Lake Erie near Toledo, has bred Percherons for years. Crist D. Raber follows recommended health testing for all broodmares and stallions and registers foals with recognized associations.

Foals and adult horses live in pasture-based paddocks with daily turnout and social interaction, ensuring calm temperaments. Each foal is gently introduced to new sights and sounds before weaning to support confident handling later. A focus on gentle handling and groundwork helps prepare each Percheron for farm work or driving events.

Owners appreciate their willingness to learn and reliable dispositions at every stage. The farm’s spacious post-and-beam barns and rolling fields shaded by mature trees create a peaceful setting for raising draft horses. This combination of attentive care and a quiet rural environment produces Percherons suited to both traditional farm tasks and staged events.
