“I am very proud to be a part of Her Majesty’s horse training and her passion for their welfare. I believe she is the leading monarch for the advocacy of horses in the world. She is a thought leader in this field. Her Majesty's horses are trained using the Dually Halter, making a difference in the training of sensitive animals by giving the horse the choice to partner in the training.” ~ Monty
“I communicate with a horse in what I call the Language of Equus; a silent language of gestures that is discernible, predictable and effective. Now you can learn from my videos, audio and notes to help you understand the horse as I do. This language is really quite simple, but simplicity becomes its greatest strength.” ~ Monty

Join-Up methods help horse and trainer to establish a bond of communication and trust. “You must somehow understand that we as horsemen can do very little to teach the horse. What we can do is to create an environment in which he can learn.” ~ Monty
Monty says, “We hear that ‘actions speak louder than words,’ but generally we do not live by it too successfully.” Now Monty has taught thousands of people worldwide how to build trust in animals through our actions and body language.

I've not done much with our boys over the wet weeks, but started again today with Pye.
We start off with field join up, it takes about 8-10 mins and he seems to enjoy this as a start up to training.
After we'd done some training and he accepted me comfortably on his back so I finished the lesson, led him away and squatted down in front of him on a loose rein. He dropped his head next to mine and kept there for a good few minutes, so I took off the dually to see if he would stay. BamBam had been coming across to where we were standing and as soon as I took the dually off Pye turned and charged at BamBam sending him away. As soon as BamBam went off, Pye turned and walked back over to me and stood with his muzzle on my cheek, I could have stayed squatted there for hours if I'd had the time lol. :D :D :D

:D BamBam is only 3 and has much to learn about boundaries. Quite often if I've sent BamBam away because he's been a bit too cheeky like climb up the steps into our hut to get at food lol.. I send him back down the steps and away then Pye also tells him off :D

Have a good weekend.
