Everett Sanderson

Everett Sanderson raises Percheron horses in Hemphill, TX, in Sabine County and the Deep East Texas near Lufkin. With more than 15 years of experience and membership in the American Percheron Horse Association, he follows breed standards and routine veterinary checks. All horses are stocked on 50 acres of pastureland with daily turnout and receive regular farrier, dental and vaccination care. Each animal undergoes genetic screening for hereditary conditions and fitness evaluations to promote lasting soundness.

Foals are gently handled from birth to build trust and ensure they are comfortable around people and farm machinery. Training focuses on groundwork, driving and light draft work, reflecting a family heritage of draft horse farm life. The farm’s wooded fencing lines offer shade and shelter while pasture rotations preserve soil quality. Visitors often comment on the calm dispositions and solid conformation of these horses, shaped by deliberate breeding choices and attentive management.
