Jerco

Jerco is a Percheron horse breeder in Sarles, ND, Cavalier County and the Red River Valley near Grand Forks. With over fifteen years of experience, it participates in annual veterinary health screenings and follows breed registry guidelines to maintain sound bloodlines. Its foals are raised in pasture-based paddocks and spend daily time under saddle to build confidence and a calm temperament.

The farm’s approach emphasizes early handling and consistent turnout, so young horses develop social skills and a strong work ethic. It maintains a small band of broodmares selected for sound structure and healthy longevity, ensuring that each pairing reflects the breed’s best traits. Jerco blends traditional draft line training with exposure to farm tasks, so horses learn basic ground manners before they leave the farm. Neighbors note the welcoming environment and the emphasis on clear communication between handler and horse. In winter months the herd is housed in insulated barns with access to outdoor runs, preserving their health through seasonal adjustments.
