Rick Welsh

Rick Welsh breeds Percheron horses in La Porte, IN, serving La Porte County and the southwest Michigan near South Bend. He has extensive experience in Percheron genetics and follows breeding practices aimed at producing sound, well-muscled animals.

The horses are raised on pasture with regular social interaction among herd mates and daily turnout to support natural hoof growth. Breeding stock undergoes routine veterinary health screenings to maintain strong bone structure and overall vitality. Foals begin basic groundwork within weeks of birth to foster calm temperaments suited for both draft work and riding.

Careful attention to nutrition and gradual exposure to farm equipment helps develop reliable adults ready for varied roles. The operation features spacious barns and well-drained paddocks designed to adapt to seasonal variations. All horses are evaluated for conformation and soundness to support a range of activities from farm work to competitive events.
