Eddie Bontrager
Eddie Bontrager raises Percherons in Edgewood, IA, in northeastern Iowa near Dubuque. With more than a decade of experience, he supports the Percheron Breeders Association of America and follows recommended health screening protocols. His horses live on pasture-based paddocks and receive daily handling to encourage calm temperaments and strong bonds with people.
His commitment to structured training has led several Percherons to demonstration teams at county fairs, showcasing their strength and steady dispositions. The farm traces its roots to a family operation that has worked with draft horses for three generations, blending traditional practices with gentle handling. Visitors note the quiet environment and horses’ readiness to engage with groomed manners and calm energy. Each year, foals are raised alongside experienced mares and introduced to basic groundwork by six weeks of age. Eddie registers all stock with the national Percheron registry and provides veterinary health records for every animal.
