Larry Banks

Larry Banks breeds Percheron horses in Mount Gilead, Ohio, in Morrow County and the Columbus area. He has worked with Percheron stock for more than a decade, taking part in careful sire and dam selections to promote sound structure, and maintains membership in the Draft Horse Registry Association.

Each horse receives routine veterinary evaluations, farrier care, and draft horse soundness assessments before breeding. Foals grow up on pasture with daily handling, fostering a calm temperament and readiness for farm or show work. His Percheron foals often appear in regional draft horse exhibitions, reflecting careful groundwork in early months and solid foundational training.

Operating on a family farm that has been in the family for generations, Larry emphasizes gentle training methods, nestled within rolling pastures, and transparent communication with owners. During winter months, horses enjoy sheltered stalls and consistent turnout schedules to maintain health and coat condition. Many owners note the sturdy build and even temperament of his Percherons.
