M.C.R.

M.C.R. raises Percheron horses in Fredericksburg, OH, Wayne County and the Holmes County area near Wooster. Michael and Cheryl Raber have been breeding draft horses for over a decade, participating in the American Percheron Society and keeping pedigrees on file.

Each foal receives daily handling and turnout on open pastures adjacent to matted barn stalls, ensuring early socialization and gentle manners. Their feeding program blends local hay and grain with mineral supplements, supporting steady growth and hoof health. Stall hygiene follows a strict schedule, and every horse benefits from routine veterinary checkups and annual farrier visits.

Visitors are welcome to see barn routines and pasture upbringing, where horses mingle with other livestock under quiet supervision. Bloodlines are selected for soundness and calm temperaments, and M.C.R. offers occasional demonstrations at nearby farm events. Over the years, they have built a reputation for consistency and a love of draft horse traditions.
