Jacob Stoltzfus

Jacob Stoltzfus breeds Percheron horses in Elizabethtown, PA, serving Lancaster County and the Susquehanna Valley near Harrisburg. With more than a decade of breeding experience, he is a member of the American Percheron Horse Association and follows recommended health testing for joint and respiratory conditions, keeping detailed records on each foal’s lineage and wellbeing. His horses are raised on pasture paddocks with daily turnout, gentle handling, and early exposure to varied environments to promote sound development.

Colts and fillies receive early handling sessions to build trust and confidence before weaning. Routine veterinary visits and farrier care help maintain healthy growth from foalhood through maturity. Many of his stock have gone on to driving competitions, demonstrating steady temperaments and willing dispositions. The family-run farm traces its roots to traditional dairy operations, and that history informs a calm approach to daily care and pasture management.
