DUES: Junior Member, $25.00 FORMS OF RECORDED OWNERSHIP The American Hanoverian Society recognizes several forms of recorded ownership: Individual, Joint (two related individuals), Partnership (two or more unrelated individuals), and Corporate (farm or business). Consider the form of ownership that best applies to your situation at the time of recording, and make your application for ownership exactly as you wish it to appear on the horse’s papers. Please keep in mind, when two individuals are listed as owners, if “and” is connecting the two names (e.g. John and Susie Smith), both parties are required to sign in order to release the horse to new owners. If “and/or” is used (e.g. John and/or Susie Smith), then only one signature is required. BYLAWS, RULES AND REGULATIONS All persons doing business with the AHS are subject to the Bylaws, Breeding Rules and Regulations, and all procedural policies adopted by the society. These may change from time to time, so all persons are advised to check with the Society for current information. All fees are subject to change. Effective April 16, 2015.

(“AHS”) expanded its services by commencing administration of the American Rhineland Studbook (“ARS”). This marks the first time the Rhineland Riding Horse has had representation in the U.S. The ARS will be an entity separate and distinct from the Hanoverian Studbook. For the 2016 breeding season, the new Rhineland Studbook will offer attractive options for mare owners, including reduced fees and streamlined registration and inspection procedures: One Organization Results in Convenience and Savings • Mare owners will benefit from reduced expenses in membership and mare dues. Membership in the AHS and one annual payment of mare dues will give the mare owner the opportunity and flexibility to utilize either the Hanoverian or Rhineland studbooks, while enjoying the convenience of working within one professional, fully-staffed organization. • The 2016 AHS inspection tour will include both studbooks, resulting in time and savings for mare owners by providing them with the opportunity to attend a single inspection in order to have their breeding stock considered for inclusion in either studbook. Increased Options and Flexibility in Breeding Choices • Mare owners will have increased options in stallion choices, with the ability to use the Rhineland Studbook to register foals resulting from breeding to stallions not licensed/approved for Hanoverian breeding. • Mare owners with mares ineligible for approval by the Hanoverian Studbook, due to pedigree or inspection criteria, may find those mares eligible to be approved under Rhineland Studbook criteria, with the resulting offspring eligible for registration with the ARS. Mare Eligibility for Approval without Presentation Mare owners may enter their mares into the Rhineland Studbook, without the added time and expense of re- presenting their mares, contingent upon meeting specific eligibility reQuirements: • All Hanoverian and non-Hanoverian mares that have been accepted into the American Hanoverian Main Studbook are automatically waived-in to the ARS Main Studbook. • Any non-Hanoverian mare previously presented for inspection to the AHS that scored greater than an overall 6 (with no subset below 5) but less than an overall 7, may be waived-in to the ARS Main Studbook without being re-presented. • Any non-Hanoverian mare that is registered in the Main Marebook of a registry specified in the “Eligible Registries” list (below) may be waived-in to the Rhineland Studbook without presentation, contingent upon approval of the mare’s pedigree, confirmation of recorded DNA case number at UC-Davis, and submission of a copy of the official Main Marebook score sheet from the mare’s registry. Page 1 Registration for Foals of 2016 • Mare owners pay no foreign sire fee for their foals of 2016 if the stallion is activated with the ARS. • Mare owners pay a reduced foreign sire fee for their foals of 2016 if the stallion is deemed acceptable for Rhineland by the ARS office, but is not activated with the ARS for 2016. • Non-Hanoverian mares recorded in the ARS Main Studbook may register their

    List of horse breeds 1 List of horse breeds This page is a list of horse and pony breeds, and also includes terms used to describe types of horse that are not breeds but are commonly mistaken for breeds. While there is no scientifically accepted definition of the term "breed,"[1] a breed is defined generally as having distinct true-breeding characteristics over a number of generations; its members may be called "purebred". In most cases, bloodlines of horse breeds are recorded with a breed registry. However, in horses, the concept is somewhat flexible, as open stud books are created for developing horse breeds that are not yet fully true-breeding. Registries also are considered the authority as to whether a given breed is listed as Light or saddle horse breeds a "horse" or a "pony". There are also a number of "color breed", sport horse, and gaited horse registries for horses with various phenotypes or other traits, which admit any animal fitting a given set of physical characteristics, even if there is little or no evidence of the trait being a true-breeding characteristic. Other recording entities or specialty organizations may recognize horses from multiple breeds, thus, for the purposes of this article, such animals are classified as a "type" rather than a "breed". The breeds and types listed here are those that already have a Wikipedia article. For a more extensive list, see the List of all horse breeds in DAD-IS. Heavy or draft horse breeds For additional information, see horse breed, horse breeding and the individual articles listed below.

  • Breeding Programme of the Breed Rheinisches Reitpferd (Rhenish
    Breeding Programme of the breed Rheinisches Reitpferd (Rhenish riding horse) based on the Statutes of 29.01.2016 under consideration of the amendments required in connection with the EU Animal Breeding Regulation (Regulation (EU) 2016/1012). Draft of 11 January 2018 Information concerning the Indigenous Stud Book o In consequence of the merger of the Rheinisches Pferdestammbuch e.V. with the Hannoveraner Verband e.V., the Hannoveraner Verband takes over and continues the keeping of the stud book of origin for the Rhenish breed in accordance with the provisions of EU law and German animal breeding law. The Rhenish riding horse is mainly bred in the breeding area Rhineland. The requirements under subsections 4 to 15 represent the fundamental principles for the breeding of the Rhenish riding horse and are binding for subsidiary stud books. Subsidiary stud books are to be informed about amendments in good time. o The name of the breed "Hanoverian" depicts the historical roots of the Society as well as its geographical origin. In 1735 King Georg II. founded the State Stud of Celle in the Kingdom of Hanover. Throughout the turbulent periods which followed in the history of this region surrounding Hanover, extending throughout Lower Saxony and other neighbouring federal states, many generations of "Hanoverian breeders“ have continued to breed “Hanoverian” horses. Modern mobility and the option of artificial insemination instead of natural fertilisation have eliminated the limitations of locality to which horse breeding used to be subjected. Whilst maintaining the geographical focus of its breeding in Lower Saxony, the Society is expanding its activity at national level to cover the whole of Germany, and at international level to cover countries where a sufficiently large breeding population is available and, furthermore, recognition of the Statutes as well as of the Breeding Programme means that breeding of the “Hanoverian” is guaranteed.
