Justin Shupp

Justin Shupp, Percherons, Telluride, CO, operates in San Miguel County and the Four Corners region near Durango. He has been breeding Percherons for several years, maintaining membership in the American Percheron Horse Association and adhering to recommended health screenings.

Horses are raised with daily turnout and personalized training, emphasizing gentle handling and early socialization. They live on open pasture with permanent access to shelter and grazing. Their stock has appeared in local parades and agricultural showcases, reflecting a steady track record of calm temperament and strong conformation.

Justin’s approach blends traditional draft horse husbandry with hands-on support for owners seeking reliable work and companion animals. Every foal is raised alongside the brood mare in a dedicated foaling paddock, monitored closely to establish a healthy start. Regular farrier visits and a balanced forage-based diet are tailored to each animal’s growth and workload, ensuring durability in harness or on the trail.
