Mervin W. Miller

Mervin W. Miller, Percherons, Fredericksburg, OH, is a longtime breeder based in Wayne County and the Cleveland area. With over fifteen years of experience, he participates in national draft horse associations and ensures all stock undergoes regular health screenings including x-rays for joint health and dental exams. His Percherons live in pasture-based environments, receive daily handling to build calm temperaments, and are introduced to draft work by age two. Raised on a small family farm, these horses benefit from rotational grazing and turnout that mirrors natural herd dynamics.

Many of his foals have placed at regional fairs for their gentle disposition and sturdy build, reflecting a focus on sound conformation. Care and consistency are central to his approach, resulting in well-adjusted Percherons suited for both farm work and leisure riding. He also holds membership in the Percheron Horse Association of America and follows breeding standards that support genetic diversity. Several graduates of his program now contribute to therapeutic riding centers and small hobby farms around the region.
