David Freas, Percheron horse breeder in Walhonding, OH, in Coshocton County near Columbus. He has been breeding Percheron horses for many years and maintains membership in the American Percheron Horse Association, with routine health checks for each animal. His Percherons are raised on pasture with daily turnout, early handling for gentle temperaments, and regular hoof care.

A former family farm blends tradition with practical husbandry, offering a quiet environment that promotes calm behavior. Visitors note the horses’ friendly nature and clear adherence to transparent care routines, reflecting a hands-on approach that supports early socialization. The combination of open fields and a well-maintained barn ensures each foal grows in a stable, enriching setting. He often attends regional draft horse shows where their steady gaits and sturdy builds receive positive feedback from experienced judges. Foals begin familiarization with leading and grooming well before weaning to promote trust and confidence.
