Welcome to Sweet Giant Shire

Located in the north of the Gironde region, our Shire stud farm brings together our stallion and several mares in a natural setting designed for their well-being. We raise these English draft horses, known for their impressive size and exceptional gentleness, with a simple passion: to share this unique breed and offer well-balanced horses for sale.

The Shire Race

The Shire is a majestic and powerful horse, renowned for its impressive size and gentle temperament. Here, we prioritize the well-being and quality of life of our horses, providing them with pastures, woods, and ponds where they can roam freely.

From ancient times to the present day, the Shire has been known for its strength and kindness, and it is this combination that made us fall in love with this breed.

The Livestock

Today, our herd numbers 12 Shires. They live 100% outdoors, in a herd, and have access to well-maintained pastures, shelters, and fresh water at all times. We also have a foaling barn and two large stalls for their comfort.

The hay comes from our own pastures, 2 km from the house, and we ensure that every detail of their diet and environment is perfect.

Sweet Giant Shire, a passion that became a breeding farm

Our Shire breeding program was born from a deep affection for this impressive and gentle breed. We chose to dedicate ourselves to these English draft horses for their strength, gentleness, and close human nature.

Today, our stallion and mares live in a calm and natural environment. We prioritize their well-being and regularly offer foals for sale, carefully raised to become well-balanced and confident companions.
