He has been involved in draft horse breeding for over fifteen years and holds membership in the United States Percheron Association, with all horses undergoing regular soundness evaluations. His draft horses are raised on rotating pasture paddocks and receive daily handling from foaling through maturity, which helps develop a calm, trainable temperament.

Recent owners note the gentle nature of his colts and their readiness for light farm work and carriage driving. Miller’s dedication to lineage and practical performance has made him a well-regarded source for reliable Percherons in northeastern Missouri. He regularly showcases his horses at regional fairs and plowing exhibitions, where their steady gait and responsiveness stand out. Each horse undergoes regular veterinary checks and structured early training to ensure optimal development.
