Cynthia Stinnett

Cynthia Stinnett is a Percheron breeder in Joplin, MO, southwest Missouri and the Springfield area. She follows standards set by recognized draft horse associations, participates in routine health testing for her breeding stock and keeps thorough records of vaccinations, treatments and farrier visits. Her Percherons graze on spacious grass pastures through spring and summer, and are brought into well-ventilated barns in winter to ensure year-round comfort and condition, while daily handling from foalhood promotes a calm temperament and ease of training.

On the farm, each horse is evaluated for conformation, soundness and temperament before being placed in new homes or programs. Stinnett’s breeding approach emphasizes gentle dispositions suited to both traditional draft work, such as pulling and farm chores, and pleasure riding, reflecting the versatility of the Percheron breed.

Neighbors, longtime owners and visiting trainers often note the horses’ steady builds, responsive manners and adaptability to varied farm tasks. Records of lineage and performance are shared with new owners to support ongoing care and the preservation of strong family lines.
