Joseph Wagler

Joseph Wagler breeds Percheron horses in Curryville, Missouri, serving central Missouri near Columbia. He has been breeding Percheron horses for several years, is active in national draft horse associations, and ensures each animal undergoes regular health screening including soundness exams and vaccinations. The horses grow up on open pasture with turnout time every day, and early handling develops the calm, steady temperaments these draft horses are known for.

His approach emphasizes natural hoof care, balanced nutrition, and a consistent training routine that prepares each horse for farm work or light draft activities. Owners often comment on the even temperament and reliable work ethic, noting that the horses adapt quickly to harness work. The farm reflects a history of midwestern draft breeding traditions, and Wagler’s attention to individual needs helps maintain a healthy, social herd environment. Each new foal is introduced to the herd with care to ensure social bonds and proper development from the start.
