Daniel Borntreger

Daniel Borntreger is a Percheron breeder in Mc Intire, IA, in northeast Iowa near Waterloo. With more than a decade of experience and membership in recognized draft horse registries, he follows rigorous health testing protocols to ensure sound temperaments and balanced conformation. His herd lives on pasture-rich acreage, and daily handling promotes calm, confident horses comfortable in a variety of settings.

Raised on a family farm rooted in regional agriculture, these Percherons are accustomed to both farm work and exhibition environments. Young horses receive basic harness training to prepare them for driving or quiet draft work, fostering adaptability from an early age. Yearlings are socialized with other farm animals to support balanced behaviors before they join new homes. Clients often comment on the gentle nature and steady gaits that reflect the breeder’s commitment to thoughtful husbandry. Their glossy coats and solid bone structure are the result of careful selection and attentive care.
