Rodney Witherite

Rodney Witherite breeds Percheron horses in Lewisburg, PA, Union County and the Susquehanna Valley near Harrisburg. He has participated in national draft horse associations for many years and follows recommended health screenings for soundness and longevity. His program adheres to breed standards for conformation and temperament, with careful selection of mares and stallions based on lineage and performance.

His Percherons are raised in a family barn with daily pasture turnout, early handling and regular grooming. Each horse receives a forage-rich diet alongside routine farrier visits and veterinary care. Raised on a multigenerational farm, these horses have earned ribbons at regional draft horse shows and often accompany educational farm visits. Prospective owners meet each foal in its home environment and learn about its lineage, temperament and ongoing care needs. These gentle draft horses are often used for light farm work, carriage drives and community parades.
