David Yoder Jr

David Yoder Jr is a Percheron breeder in Richfield Springs, NY, in Otsego County and Central New York near Utica. He has been raising draft horses for over 15 years with regular participation in the Percheron Horse Association and annual inspections that include conformation and soundness evaluations. His stallions and mares live in pasture-based herds with daily handling to ensure calm temperaments and early social interaction.

All foals undergo veterinary health screening before matching with new homes, and a nearby farrier services their trimmed hooves on site. Guests note the farm’s quiet setting and approachable demeanor of the horses as highlights of their visit. Vaccinations, dental care, and annual Coggins tests are documented and shared with new owners to ensure each horse arrives in peak condition. His commitment to traditional farm practices and steady feedback from owners has earned trust among local riders.
