Gary G. Hopkins

Gary G. Hopkins and Judy Hopkins are Percheron horse breeders in Lynchburg, OH, in Highland County near Cincinnati. They have been raising Percheron horses for more than ten years and hold membership in the American Percheron Horse Association. Their breeding program follows recommended DNA screening, annual veterinary exams and conformation evaluations to support soundness and longevity.

Their horses live on a mixture of pasture and turnout paddocks, and foals are handled gently from birth to encourage calm temperaments. The farm produces its own hay and maintains climate-controlled shelters through winter months. Several of their horses have placed at Highland County fairs in driving competitions, reflecting the farm’s connection to traditional draft work. They work closely with a local veterinarian and farrier to maintain regular health care and responsible hoof trimming schedules. The farm welcomes scheduled visits so visitors can learn about Percheron care and training in a hands-on setting.
