Jonath is really an artist with horses. Had a chance to watch him this weekend at the Northwest Horse Expo. I also had the pleasure of having him ride my Kiger stallion and it was clear that my horse was respected and enjoyed working with Jonath. He is kind and effective and horses seem to pick up on that immediately. He really has what it takes to bring out the best in a horse and have fun doing so.
