Welcome to Priefert's
Percheron Website
T
he Priefert Family acquired their original team of Black Percheron Draft Horses in the spring of 2002. Today, under the guidance of experienced horseman and talented driver Jason Goodman, Texas Thunder has evolved into one of the premier draft horse exhibition attractions in the country.
Originating in La Perche region of northwest France, for generations these massive Black Percheron Draft Horses have been used for farming, logging, pulling heavy wagons, and carriages. The Texas Thunder team of Percheron’s is one of the largest; weighing an average of 2200 pounds and standing an average 18.2 hands tall.
Jason, his wife Rose, and a talented team of assistants travel from Coast to Coast with these horses performing at rodeos, fairs, and major equine shows: Wrangler National Finals Rodeo, the World Percheron Congress, the Quarter Horse Congress, the International Rolex Competition, as well as many PRCA Rodeo events.
Each year, averaging over 240 days on the road, logging thousands of miles, Texas Thunder brands the Priefert name in the minds of people all across North America. View “Events” to see where Texas Thunder will soon be appearing close to you!
