Tanya Ballensky breeds percheron horses in Roundup, MT, serving central Montana near Billings. With more than a decade of experience, she follows Percheron Horse Association guidelines and maintains regular health screening for her mares and foals. She shares her knowledge through workshops and mentors new breeders in draft horse husbandry.

Her horses live on expansive grass pastures with sheltered stalls for winter comfort, and foals are introduced to farm routines early to ensure steady development.

Several of her horses have earned breeding approvals and been featured in regional draft horse showcases, highlighting consistent performance and temperament.
