Wisdom Tree Stables LLC

Wisdom Tree Stables LLC breeds gypsy vanner horses in Adel, IA, across Dallas County and central Iowa near Des Moines. Leslie Doerr has been working with these horses for over a decade and follows breed club guidelines for health screenings.

Animals live on pasture with daily turnout, receive regular grooming, and become familiar with barn routines and light trail riding. The farm’s rolling fields and quiet lanes encourage a calm temperament and gradual socialization with riders of all levels. Several horses have gone on to basic dressage training or comfortable therapy roles due to their steady disposition. The facility has been in the Doerr family since the 1990s, preserving a tradition of gentle handling and selective breeding. Each foal receives daily handling from birth, and adults spend most of their time on pasture with supplemental hay during colder months. Leslie also maintains ties with local equine networks to stay updated on health advances and training methods.
