Dale Klein

Dale Klein is a breeder of Percheron horses in Wales, ND, serving Barnes County and Red River Valley near Fargo. Klein has bred Percheron horses over multiple seasons and maintains membership in the American Percheron Horse Association. All horses receive annual veterinary exams, routine vaccinations, and conformation evaluations before selection for breeding stock.

They live in pasture-based groups with regular farrier care and early handling to encourage a calm, willing temperament. The family-owned farm has spanned three generations and focuses on gentle draft horses suited to both farm work and pleasure driving.

Local owners appreciate their horses’ steady disposition and strong work ethic in both agricultural and show settings. Foals socialize with adult horses and encounter gentle handling and exposure to farm routines from an early age, which promotes confidence in varied surroundings. Each horse follows a nutrition plan of high-quality forage supplemented with grains and minerals to support robust bone development and muscle strength.
