Jonathan Shiflett

Jonathan Shiflett, Percherons in Huntsville, UT, works in Weber County and the Wasatch Front near Ogden.

He has been breeding Percheron horses for more than fifteen years, is a member of the American Percheron Society and the United States Draft Horse Registry, and adheres to recommended health screenings for joint, eye and heart conditions. Each horse enjoys daily turnout in grass pastures, access to heated stalls in winter and regular handling to encourage gentle temperaments. The region’s cool mountain air supports healthy coat growth, and local veterinarians assist with routine vaccinations and dental care.

The farm’s program includes groundwork exercises and early exposure to driving equipment so foals develop confidence in harness work. Jonathan maintains detailed lineage, health and temperament records to guide suitable matches for riding or light draft demonstrations. Visitors comment on the horses’ steady dispositions and the farm’s scenic setting along mountain foothills.
