Hershy Equine

Hershy Equine, Percheron horses, Topeka, IN, in northeastern Indiana near Fort Wayne, is led by John O. Herschberger, who has more than a decade of experience with American Percheron Horse Association membership and routine health testing. Foals and broodmares graze in open pastures and receive daily handling to support early socialization and a calm disposition. Facilities include a climate-controlled barn and turnout paddocks with sturdy fencing and year-round access to shelter and fresh water.

Several of their horses have earned regional show ribbons, reflecting a balance of strength and trainability valued by breeders and riders. John’s background in equine training shapes a hands-on approach that prepares horses for farm work, driving, or light riding. The farm maintains a small broodmare band to support careful selection and soundness across generations. Visitors often comment on the serene facilities and consistent routines that underscore the farm’s commitment to horse well-being.
