💔 A Tribute to Monty Roberts (1935 – 2026) 💔

These last few days I've had a persistent feeling of unease. Yesterday, I knew why when I heard the sad news that Monty Roberts had passed away.

Like so many of you, I have closely followed his work, methods and teachings since I was young. The impact he has had on my life and shaping the horsewoman I am today has been truly profound.

Without Monty, Brave'Art Clipping wouldn't exist.
His concepts are the entire reason I use a natural horsemanship approach when clipping. Because of him, I refused to accept that force should be the standard. His teachings gave me the knowledge, experience and confidence to listen to horses.
On a personal level, it is largely because of Monty that Chester and I share such a special bond and deep understanding.

Monty changed beliefs globally. "The man who could speak to horses" wasn't a myth anymore; it became a reality that he generously shared with the world.
I was lucky to attend his demos several times and meet him in person. He had a remarkable talent for making everyone there feel seen, human and horse alike.

Less than six months ago, Monty's legendary horse, Shy Boy, passed away. Monty said in his statement that he felt sure it wouldn't be long before they were reunited. As always, his instinct was right.

Thank you Monty for dedicating your life to making the world a better place for horses.

Your legacy lives on and I will often remember you in every gentle touch, every quiet moment and every horse clipped with patience instead of force.

You can now rest in peace Monty and Shy Boy 🕊️🐴 🙏

Here I am again, reminding everyone that IT STILL ISN'T TOO LATE TO CLIP! 🤣

It is just a myth my friends - you can clip all year round if you want to!

Make a booking now, your horse / pony will thank you 🙏

You might have seen the videos doing the rounds of owners clipping their horses with cheap dog trimmers for under £20 👀

Whilst it might seem like a brilliant budget-friendly option for body clipping, you could actually be doing your horse more harm than good.

There’s a reason these videos almost always feature a very clean, fine-coated horse with a solid-coloured coat… because lightweight trimmers simply aren’t designed to cope with dense coats or full body clips — even for dogs!

Low-powered trimmers can tug and pull at the hair, causing discomfort and irritation, whilst ultra-close cutting blades can leave the coat too short to properly protect the skin, increasing the risk of sunburn.

Here’s a brilliant example and throwback from Brave'Art Clipping - Dom Leese below 👇

A collection of goodies from the lovely Mel at Oil 2 Horse - Great Horse Products 😁😍
Itch Mast-er from Great Horse Products is literally MY FAVOURITE for fly control and now I'm so excited to try the shampoo!

I've just had a sniff of the lemongrass and lavender shampoo though and omg, it is HEAVEN!!! Very tempted to keep this for my own use, nevermind the horses 🤫😂

I will be doing another order at the end of the month, so if you're local and want to share on postage then let me know.
The fly cream and spray has UV protection, stops itching, prevents hair loss and can still be smelt 24 hours later! Unlike many others, it smells lush too, you'll want to use it on yourself!
