Ted Wetekamp, Percheron horses, Houston, TX, Harris County and the Gulf Coast near Galveston. He has bred Percheron horses for several years and maintains membership in the American Percheron Horse Association, ensuring that each foal undergoes standard health screenings before joining his farm.

Their breeding stock is selected for sound conformation and gentle dispositions, reflecting a focus on strength and steady temperament rather than high-performance competition. Ted emphasizes hands-on socialization from birth, introducing foals to a range of stimuli on his homestead to foster confidence around machinery and families.

Visitors often praise the quiet barn environment and the accessible layout of his family-run property.
