Rudolph E. Stoltzfus

Rudolph E. Stoltzfus, Percheron horse breeder in Addison, NY, works in Steuben County and the Southern Tier near Elmira. He has raised Percheron horses for over twenty years and is active in national equine associations, with regular health screenings and annual farrier visits to maintain soundness. His herd is managed on rolling pastures and within a well-ventilated barn, where foals receive early hands-on socialization and older horses graze in small groups.

The farm traces its roots to over a century of local agriculture, and its stock reflects careful selection for temperament and strength. He also offers gentle groundwork sessions to introduce young horses to harness and carriage work, supporting their development beyond the farm. Stoltzfus provides documentation of breeding records and welcomes prospective visitors to view the facilities. His approach balances traditional draft horse values with thoughtful care that supports each animal’s development.
