“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

Monty has helped thousands of people globally through his Monty Roberts Online Videos to learn how to Join-Up with horses, training young horses, spooky horses, horses that bite. His mustang , Shy Boy , is his most famous horse.
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.

It would be wonderful to be able to subscribe to threads of interest and receive automatic updates when new posts are added. Someone had replied to a post I made, and I never knew it, so didn't get to respond in a timely way.

horselover 2010-Feb-21 at 02:40AM

I think it is a great idea. One may sign up to get an email notification to any of the posts on the Forum or to only those that are of interest to her. I second your suggestion:-)

nish 2010-Feb-24 at 11:55PM

I also think that this would be great! I would love it!

Debbie Roberts Loucks, USA 2010-Mar-01 at 06:11AM

Love that idea...off to chat with website engineers!

horselover 2010-Mar-01 at 06:56AM

Thank you for checking out the suggestion box and more importantly acting upon. It is rather time consuming to go through every single topic listed in the forum to see who answered about what. The listing at the bottom part of forum is helpful but not complete as you know.

Christy 2010-May-17 at 12:03AM

I am with you! There are a lot of comments that I find interesting and I have replied, added or written some myself in different parts of this Forum.... and then, for one thing I forget which ones I have read and spend a lot of precious time looking to see if someone has added something more.

Great update! Thanks to Webmaster and Co!
