River Valley Shires*

River Valley Shires* Shire horse operation in Franklin, Indiana, in Johnson County near Indianapolis, is known for breeding stock with sound conformation and steady temperaments. The program follows registry guidelines and health-testing protocols recommended for Shire horses.

Horses are reared on ample open pastures with daily turnout, year-round sheltered loafing areas, and hands-on handling by experienced staff from foal to maturity. Angela L. Cook emphasizes early socialization and calm groundwork to support each horse’s development on trail and farm. Some young stock have earned top ribbons at county fairs, reflecting consistent quality across generations.

The farm layout includes spacious weatherproof barns and lush gently rolling meadows that support natural hoof wear and muscle development. Prospective owners attest to the approachable nature of the horses, noting clear communication and gentle dispositions. Health screenings include assessments for metabolic disorders common to draft breeds.
