Dennis B. Shetler

Dennis B. Shetler is a Percheron breeder in Willsboro, NY in the Adirondack region near Plattsburgh. He maintains membership in national and regional Percheron associations and follows recommended health protocols, including annual veterinary soundness evaluations.

His horses are raised on pasture with access to open shelters and daily handling, encouraging calm temperaments and social confidence. Foals receive routine deworming, farrier care and careful ground training to prepare them for future work or show. Winter paddocks are well drained and barns are designed for year-round comfort with heated water sources and ventilation.

Shepherded on a family-run farm with roots in local equine traditions, his program reflects respect for the breed’s historical role in agriculture. Visitors note the approachable nature of both horses and staff in reviews. Families choosing Percherons for farm or pleasure often return for subsequent foals from his program.
