Madison Shires

Madison Shires raises shire horses on a small-scale farm in Okolona, MS, in Chickasaw County near Tupelo. Madison Shires is committed to preserving the gentle temperament and robust health of shire horses.

They have been raising these draft horses for many years and follow recommended veterinary screening and farriery routines to maintain soundness and vitality. Foals grow up in a pasture-based environment with daily turnout and regular human interaction, building confidence and social skills. The farm’s quiet setting and patient handling help horses develop a steady disposition for light farm work and driving.

They adhere to health-testing protocols suited to draft breeds and maintain detailed records to support long-term soundness. Prospective owners appreciate the breeder’s willingness to provide ongoing guidance on training and care. Each spring brings a new crop of foals that benefit from early handling and social exposure.
