Debbie Schouweiler

Debbie Schouweiler, Percheron horse breeder in Wabasha, MN, serves Southeast Minnesota near Rochester. She has operated her farm for several years and maintains membership in national draft horse associations, with routine veterinary evaluations and genetic health screens for every animal.

The horses are raised in spacious paddocks with daily turnout and early handling to encourage calm, adaptable temperaments. Visitors often note the farm’s relaxed pace and attention to each animal’s diet and hoof care. Debbie also offers introductory driving experiences and collaborates with local therapy programs to share the Percheron’s gentle strength. Breeding stock is selected for sound structure and steady disposition, and foal training begins under shelter to build confidence from a young age. The farm’s mixed-grass pastures are supplemented with locally sourced hay to ensure balanced nutrition year-round. A recent visitor commented on the foals’ early social bonds and the consistent care across seasons.
