Jason Hainz

Jason Hainz breeds Percheron horses in Mayville, WI, Dodge County near Milwaukee.

He has spent more than a decade raising draft horses under the standards of the Percheron Horse Association, conducting regular conformation and genetic health testing in collaboration with an equine veterinarian, and completing performance evaluations at regional shows. His horses are nurtured on spacious pastures with rotational grazing, daily turnout, and compassionate handling to support strong bones and calm temperaments. The farm also features a custom nutrition program based on forage analysis and seasonal supplements tailored to working and breeding stock.

Foals are introduced to halters and groundwork within weeks of birth to foster early socialization and confidence. Hainz’s farm combines traditional draft training with gentle, positive reinforcement, preparing horses for both farm work and youth riding programs. He maintains a climate-controlled barn with sand stalls, routine veterinary oversight, and farrier visits to ensure ongoing health and soundness. Jason blends hands-on experience with continued learning in regional workshops and association seminars.
