Ray Yoder

Ray Yoder breeds Percheron horses in Millersburg, OH, in Holmes County and northeastern Ohio near Cleveland. Yoder has been working with draft horses for over a decade, follows industry standards for hoof care, dental exams and routine veterinary screenings, and participates in the American Percheron Horse Association. His Percheron foals graze on open pasture, enjoy daily handled turnout, and receive a balanced feed program to support growth and develop steady temperaments. Early training includes led walks, light harness work and exposure to quiet farm routines that foster confidence in harness or under saddle.

Visitors often mention the horses’ calm disposition and gentle willingness to learn, reflecting Yoder’s patient handling and commitment to socialization. The farm’s rural setting amid rolling fields offers a low-stress environment aligned with traditional draft horse husbandry, and each animal’s health record is carefully maintained. Yoder welcomes questions about lineage and farming methods at local events, where he shares insights drawn from years of hands-on experience.
