Darlene Canterbury

Darlene Canterbury is a Percheron horse breeder in Leonard, MI, in Oakland County and the Detroit area near Detroit. She has more than a decade of experience and holds membership in the American Percheron Society, combining that with routine veterinary screenings and genetic evaluations.

Her family-run farm spans 75 acres of mixed pasture and woodland, offering shelter and turnout year-round. The mares and foals receive daily handling from birth and gradual exposure to farm activities, encouraging a confident, well-adjusted nature. During foaling season, each mare is monitored closely and given a comfortable paddock with nighttime barn checks.

Broodmare selection is guided by detailed record-keeping of temperament and performance lines to ensure soundness and consistency. Local owners note the Percherons’ steady disposition and value Darlene’s transparent approach to sharing pedigrees and care practices. Several of her Percherons have been recognized at county fairs for conformation and steady behavior under saddle.
