James Klein

James Klein is a Percheron horse breeder in Shipshewana, IN, serving northeast Indiana and the Fort Wayne area. He is a member of the American Percheron Horse Association and ensures each horse receives routine veterinary examinations, X-rays when needed, and comprehensive health screening for soundness and temperament. Klein raises foals alongside adult horses on rolling, well-fenced pastures with sheltered loafing areas, incorporating daily handling to foster trust and ease of training.

His Percherons have found roles in dressage, driving teams, and therapeutic riding programs, and many owners note their reliable, calm presence and smooth gaits. With a focus on solid conformation, intelligent temperament, and gentle disposition, Klein’s farm offers horses registered at weaning and suited for both experienced handlers and those new to draft breeds. Tours are available by appointment, with opportunities to see barns, training facilities, and learn about responsible Percheron care, feeding, and maintenance.
