Larry Lloyd

Larry Lloyd and Eric Lloyd breed Percheron horses in Van Wert, OH, in northwest Ohio near Toledo. They have over a decade of combined experience and follow industry-recommended protocols including regular veterinary checks, vaccinations, dental exams and hoof care, aligned with recognized draft horse registry standards. Their Percherons are raised on ample pasture with daily turnout and gentle handling beginning at a few days old to nurture calm temperaments and social confidence.

The family-run operation maintains sturdy shelters and open paddocks so horses can seek shade, form herd bonds and develop resilience through varied terrain. Many visitors remark on the horses’ steady dispositions, solid bone structure and willingness to learn groundwork exercises in harness or under saddle. Foals born each spring receive structured early training, and the Lloyds regularly share knowledge on draft horse care drawn from regional farming traditions passed down through generations.
