Uni-Q

Uni-Q breeds Percheron horses in Sumner, IA in northeast Iowa and the Cedar Valley near Waterloo. The operation follows guidelines from recognized equine associations, partnering with local veterinarians for regular health screenings, reproductive evaluations, and farrier appointments to support hoof and general soundness.

Horses live in pasture rotations with shelter access and daily socialization, and mares and foals share stalls designed for safety during early development. Handlers introduce young horses to basic ground training and turnout routines that build confidence and prepare them for draft work or riding. Each foal receives individualized attention from a team experienced with draft breeds, ensuring a smooth transition into performance or pleasure roles.

Uni-Q places emphasis on calm temperaments and correct conformation, qualities often noted by regional show judges and local working farms. Prospective equine enthusiasts appreciate the farm’s friendly atmosphere and knowledgeable discussions about Percheron characteristics, reflecting its commitment to long-term partnerships.
