Arabian registration problems!!!

Well, if they'll send you a bill of sale, or sign the paper's for you, I don't see any reason why the AHA won't accept that because it's going from the current name on her paper's right to you, so if they'll do that, you should be set.

but it's not just putting her in my name, I need signatures from the owners of the stallion stating that he was the one that bred her. And i can't get ahold of them. So I can't get her foal registered either....see? one problem after another. Today is not so good a day....

my mare had her breeders info on her papers but no other owners. so i wrote to the breeder, and gave them a copy current papers and a photo, they were happy to fill out the apha paperwork for a transfer, and even tried to sell me one of their paints. it was impossible to track down all of her owners inbetween then and now.

The people who bred her should be the ones who owned the stallion, therefore be able to sign for him?

If i am reading correctly, the original owners weren't the ones who bred her to the stallion, but the in between owners? and the "in between owners" who were neglectful of the stally, and who bred mares on their property do not want to be tracked down, because they know if they were to be found they could poss. be in trouble with the law for neglect of animals, and now you are stuck because if they gave you the signature for the registration papers you'd gladly leave them alone, but they are buttheads so they refuse to reappear.

and now your foal hurt himself. oh man! you are having a terrible time of it :( I'm sorry, I have no clue how to help you, I have just been following this thread to see what happens, but I feel bad for you! hugs!

Do you have the mare's registration papers, or just a copy?

If you have the originals and the breeder's signature is on the transfer/sale line, you can register your mare in your name.

If you don't and the breeder is still the owner of register, you need to contact them, not the 'in between' owner.

Once the mare is registered in your name, you can register the foal as a Half-Arabian as long as his dam is a purebred. If she's only a partbred, the foal is ineligible to be registered with the AHA.

You don't need the stallion owner's signature in order to register a partbred foal, as long as the mare is a registered purebred.

I do have the original papers, but she is registered IAHA, so I'm S.O.L. AppyLover pretty much got the situation. Here are some pics I took when I was looking at deja there.

I feel so bad for the old guy. He was very well behaved too. He came and said hi to everyone and wasn't a jerk at all. All of the horses on the property are various degrees of under weight. Deja was fairly ribby when I got her, and she was six months pregnant and they still had her 8 or so month old filly on her. ugh..I should have gotten it the day I picked her up. oh well, live and learn I guess.

oh and someone sent me this not long after I got deja home.

The IAHA and the AHRA are one and the same now, so there shouldn't be any reason you can't have her reregistered in your name.

It used to be that the IAHA and the AHRA were two separate organizations, but not anymore. They combined and became the AHA.

Any registration papers issued by IAHA or the AHRA are just as valid as any issued by the AHA.

My now deceased gelding was registered with the AHRA, but his papers weren't null and void just because the IAHA and AHRA combined.

Have the mare registered in your name, make sure she's DNA typed, and register the foal as a Half Arabian.
