Renowned horse trainer encouraging no cruelty horse training

A famed horse trainer and Solvang resident is trying to change the way his industry handles animals.

Monty Roberts held a seminar Sunday on his philosophies of non-violent training and communication with animals.

Roberts says using human vulnerabilities with animals can create healing and understanding.

Specifically, Roberts is fighting against the use of whips on horses.

Roberts himself was a traumatic stress injury survivor. He had 72 broken bones as a child.

He uses that experience to find healing in the horses.
