Dennis V. Miller

Dennis V. Miller breeds Percheron horses in Riverside, Iowa, in Washington County and the Iowa City area. He has been working with draft horses for years and is a member of the Percheron Horse Association, following its recommended health screenings. Each foal grows up on his family farm beside pastures and barns, learning gentle handling and daily turnout to develop strong bones and steady temperaments. Their foals are socialized around other livestock and familiar voices, preparing them for riding, driving or farm work with calm confidence.

Miller emphasizes sound structure and temperament, and some horses from this farm have earned ribbons in regional shows for their steady movement. Their quiet manner and robust build suit both working farms and family settings, reflecting a breeding approach rooted in respect for the breed’s draft heritage. Prospective owners often remark on the horses’ gentle nature and adaptability to both pasture life and light draft duties.
