Wilbur Helmuth

Wilbur Helmuth breeds Percheron horses in Albany, WI, in Green County and the Driftless Area near Madison. He has worked with Percherons for more than a decade, maintains registration with recognized equine associations, and follows recommended health screenings for every horse. Animals are raised in pasture-based herds with daily turnout and gentle early handling to build trust and confidence. Breeding decisions prioritize sound structure and steady dispositions suited for a range of farm tasks.

His farm combines traditional draft horse husbandry with a focus on calm temperament and versatility for both driving and farm work. The rolling hills of southwestern Wisconsin offer varied terrain to support conditioning and hoof health. Visitors often remark on his patient guidance and the horses’ approachable nature around children and newcomers. Seasonal foalings take place in late spring to ensure young horses experience mild weather during early development.
