Joseph Yoder

Joseph Yoder breeds Percheron horses in Durand, WI, in west-central Wisconsin near Eau Claire. With a focus on temperament and durability, he follows breed association guidelines and arranges annual veterinary exams and careful genetic screening.

His Percherons spend ample time in pasture rotations, benefit from a custom forage-based diet, and engage in early gentle handling to build trust and confidence. The farm’s paddocks and airy shelters are rotated seasonally to support optimal hoof health and muscle development. Socialization with visitors and neighboring livestock promotes a calm demeanor suited for both farm work and family outings.

Owners often comment on the horses’ solid conformation and reliable work ethic during community plow days and draft shows around the county fair circuit. Yoder maintains clear records and open communication on lineage and health history, making the process straightforward and transparent for every new owner.
