Sarah Messersmith

Sarah Messersmith, Shire horses, Raleigh, NC, is in Wake County and the Research Triangle near Durham. She has over a decade of experience breeding Shire horses and follows American Shire Horse Association guidelines with regular vaccinations, routine veterinary care, and genetic screening for known equine conditions. Her horses grow up on family pastures with daily human interaction, and her stables feature roomy stalls and generous turnout fields to promote sound structure and calm temperaments.

Each foal receives early exposure to farrier and dental visits before weaning to foster confidence during new routines. Weanlings join group paddocks that encourage gentle social bonds and steady growth. Several of her horses have shown in regional agricultural fairs and move easily into light farm work or therapeutic riding programs. Buyers note her detailed health and training records along with step-by-step transition plans that support horses settling smoothly into their new homes.
