William A. Yoder

William A. Yoder raises Percheron horses in Clare, MI, covering Clare County and the Great Lakes Bay region near Saginaw. He follows registry guidelines of the American Percheron Horse Association and ensures regular health screenings for all breeding stock, including annual veterinary exams and farrier checks. Every foal grows up in a family setting, with early handling, turnout in grassy paddocks and gradual exposure to trailers and harness work to promote sound development and confidence.

His acreage includes century-old barns and modern shelter sheds, where horses receive daily turnout, individual attention and seasonal nutritional programs. Several of his Percherons have earned ribbons at local county fairs and regional draft horse shows for their steady temperament, size and balanced conformation. Owners often comment on the farm’s tranquil atmosphere and the careful rhythm of his husbandry, which aims to nurture both physical strength and a willing disposition.
