Jacob F Zook breeds percheron horses in Seymour, MO, serving Webster County and the Ozarks near Springfield. He has been working with percherons for several years and follows recognized registry guidelines, including routine veterinary screenings and structured farrier care for each mare and stallion.

His horses are raised in pasture-based paddocks with shaded loafing shelters, paired with daily human interaction to encourage reliable, steady temperaments. The operation blends traditional draft training with a gentle ground-first approach, allowing young horses to gain confidence before heavier work begins. Family-run farm practices ensure close attention at every stage, and many owners praise the breed’s strength and calm disposition under varied farm tasks. Each foal is born in a clean stall with 24-hour observation from birth. The horses receive a diet of quality forage supplemented to match their growth and development stages, supporting overall soundness.
