Harold T. Tharp and Judy K. Tharp, Percheron horse breeders in Bradfordsville, KY, serve central Kentucky near Louisville. They have been breeding Percheron horses for over two decades, maintaining membership in the Percheron Horse Association and following standard health testing for colic and equine infectious anemia. Their horses are raised on pasture with daily handling, socialization with staff and visitors, and seasonal hoof care to support overall well-being.

The farm’s history extends back three generations, offering a continuity of practical knowledge in draft horse husbandry. Many of their horses have placed at state fairs and draft horse shows, reflecting steady conformation and temperament. They emphasize open communication with owners after placement, providing guidance on training and seasonal management. Routine veterinary checkups and individualized feeding plans are part of their daily routine.
