Jon Koval

Jon Koval breeds Percheron horses in East Peoria, IL, serving Peoria County and the Illinois River valley near Peoria. He follows American Percheron registry guidelines and maintains current health testing and clear veterinary records.

His horses are raised on open pastures with regular turnout, and foals receive early handling to foster calm temperaments. Young stock socialize alongside goats and sheep to encourage adaptability and ease around other farm animals. Regular farrier and dental care, along with daily interaction, prepare each horse for a balanced transition to training.

Located on his family’s countryside acreage, the farm combines riding arenas and shaded paddocks to support both pleasure and light draft work. He participates in local shows and driving exhibitions, where judges often comment on the steady willingness of his horses. Prospective owners often note the thoughtful match of each horse to its new home and the lasting support they receive post-sale.
