Ralph L Wetherell, Jr

Ralph L Wetherell, Jr is a Percheron breeder in Somers, CT, in Tolland County and northeast Connecticut near Hartford. He has been involved in draft horse breeding for more than a decade and follows American Percheron Horse Association guidelines, including regular health screenings for all breeding stock.

Foals are raised on a family-operated farm with spacious pastures and daily socialization, allowing them to build strength, confidence, and a calm demeanor as they mature. The breeding program emphasizes balanced conformation along with a steady temperament, producing horses that excel in farm work, driving competitions, or recreational riding.

Each foal spends time with older horses in well-managed herds and is handled daily by experienced staff to ensure a calm response to grooming, handling, and transport. Owners frequently note the gentle disposition and sturdy build of these Percheron horses in both casual farm settings and more structured environments.
