​Big Poppa came from Bieber Ranch in Ft. Myers, Florida to join Riverside Carriage Co. in March 2020. He is a huge Percheron Gelding, and, at a whopping 19.1 hands tall and weighing just over 2900 pounds, Poppa is a true “Gentle Giant.”  Poppa was, formerly, a competition pulling horse and has not yet mastered the concept of slow and easy…Although very safe and extremely friendly, Poppa maintains a very peppy step, much more suitable for parades than weddings or funerals.    Big Poppa is a good natured, loveable goof who loves posing for pictures and nuzzling passers-by.  Poppa loves kids of all sizes and ages and, while wearing his Unicorn horn, he makes for a memorable, stunning photo.
