Ralph Lyon

Ralph Lyon and Shari Lyon are Percheron horse breeders in Meadow, SD, in the Great Plains near Rapid City. They have been breeding Percheron horses for several years, maintaining bloodlines recognized by the American Percheron Horse Association and following registry standards. Regular veterinary screenings and precise farrier assessments support sound development and overall well-being. Each foal receives individualized attention during weaning to ease the transition and monitor health benchmarks.

Pasture-based rearing allows foals to develop strength and social skills in a natural setting, while handlers introduce gentle ground work from an early age. Their farm has been in the Lyon family for decades, blending traditional horsemanship with modern welfare practices. Several of their horses have competed in local driving events and agricultural fairs, showcasing steady work ethic and gentle dispositions. Visitors often mention the calm temperaments and sure-footed gaits typical of their stock.
