Max A. Goetz

Max A. Goetz is a Percheron breeder in Selby, SD, serving Walworth County and the Black Hills near Rapid City. He adheres to National Percheron Horse Association guidelines and maintains comprehensive health screening for his stock, including flexion tests and digital radiographs.

Horses are raised on spacious pastures with seasonal shelters, receive daily handling, and benefit from turnout with other equines to foster social skills. His breeding program focuses on the Percheron’s natural athleticism and gentle temperament, producing horses well suited for draft work, driving competitions, and recreational riding. Raised alongside cattle and sheep, these horses adapt easily to mixed-farm environments and tend to form calm herd dynamics. Owners praise his attentive pre-sale support, detailed care instructions, and willingness to discuss individual goals before a horse leaves the farm. All horses undergo regular farrier visits and dental care to ensure soundness and comfort.
