Rest in Peace Big Guy.
We lost you far too soon.

We have a limited supply of frozen semen.
In the summer of 2011 we built Duke a new paddock. It was fun to watch him the first time we let him go in it.
Check out Duke's solid pedigree.....
Merci à tous les éleveurs francais de chevaux Percherons 2011 de nous avoir accueilli chaleureusement,

Thank you to the French Percheron Breeders for a great 2011 World Percheron Congress

A beautiful Indian Summer Fall day to watch Duke play in his Paddock
