Percheron Horse Association of America is a nonprofit corporation dedicated to the preservation and promotion of the purebred Percheron Horse. In 1876, a group of Percheron breeders met in Chicago, Illinois, and formed the Norman-Percheron Association and the first stud book was started. This was the first purebred livestock association formed in the United States. The following year the name Norman was dropped. In 1905, Percheron breeders again met in Chicago and formed the Percheron Society of America which continued until 1934, when our present association, Percheron Horse Association of America was formed as a non-profit organization. The modern association, as in the past, is dedicated to the promotion and preservation of the Percheron horse. Our association office processes all registrations and transfers of ownership, publishes a quarterly breed magazine, and the Percheron Stud Book of America. The Association helps support a National Show and sponsors a World Percheron Congress every four years.
