My family has bought a small farm, and we’re looking for a place in Nova Scotia to buy a draft horse. *We are new at this.
Can anyone suggest a place to start looking?

    A ranch or farm

    Yes there are. Check your local tack stores and any equine publications. A quick search online resulted this:

    Just to give you an idea - a lot of Percherons out there.

    There are PMU ranches in Canada. I would google them, and find out if there are any located close to Nova Scotia. The PMU ranches usually breed draft mares to horses, and you get a cross. They use the urine of these pregnant mares in the making of hormones. The babies are by-products, and they are always needing homes for these babies. There is usually nothing wrong with them, they are just unfortunately not what the PMU ranch is conscerned with, they just want the urine, not the foals. So, this could be a cheap way to acquire a decent horse that needs a new lease on life.
