Vance Anderson

Vance Anderson breeds Percheron horses in Mounds, IL, in southern Illinois near St. Louis. He has spent the past decade refining his breeding program with selective matings registered through national draft horse associations and regular health screenings for vital traits. His Percheron foals are raised on open pasture with daily grooming and turnout, building strong legs and calm temperaments through gentle handling from an early age.

The horses learn basic draft work and carriage driving on the family farm, where barn chores and pasture time teach them steady manners. Visitors often note the horses’ willing nature and solid conformation, reflecting the farm’s focus on sound structure over flashy markings. Regular farrier care and nutritional consultations with a local veterinarian help the herd maintain optimal health and sound hooves year-round.
