James Sandretto

James Sandretto, Percheron breeder in Poland, ME, raises draft horses in Androscoggin County and central Maine near Portland. He has been breeding Percheron horses for more than a decade, follows American Percheron Horse Association standards and schedules routine veterinary health screenings. Foals grow up in spacious pasture paddocks, receive early halter training and daily turnout alongside an array of farm animals.

James draws on a family tradition of draft horse farming to shape horses with calm temperaments and robust build. His focus on gentle handling and consistent socialization has earned positive feedback from owners in local plowing contests and agritourism settings. Prospective owners often note the even-keeled nature of his Percherons and their adaptability to both farm chores and recreational driving. Stable facilities include heated winter stalls and sun-sheltered loafing sheds to ensure comfort in Maine’s changing seasons. Each stage of growth is documented with photographic updates for prospective owners.
