The ancestry of the ENH is debated, including alleged claims about direct descendance from the extinct Tarpan. Here we conducted a detailed analysis of the genetic makeup and relationships of the ENH based on the genotypes of 15 autosomal short tandem repeats (STRs), 18 Y chromosomal single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), mitochondrial D-loop sequence and lateral gait allele in DMRT3.

Can't believe we are in the final quarter of 2020. It's been a unique year to say the least. Lots of new challenges for sure. Last week we had beautiful weather and the trees were just outstanding in there fall colors. Today as I write this, there's a strong wind stripping the leaves from the trees and temperatures are predicted to drop into the low teens tomorrow night...and it's not even Halloween yet! Not ready for water tank heaters and pony blankets! Though a lot of events had been canceled, the ACPS committees have been using the time to regroup and come up with new ideas to promote our ponies and membership. There should be some new information about these things in the next magazine. They have also been working on improving and updating the webpage. Lots of new things are in the works, so stay tuned and check out the magazine. Check out our public Facebook page which can be found at: American Connemara Pony Society - Region 8 that everyone can post to. It currently has 287 followers. Not bad considering there are about 16 Region VIII members. So it's a good place to promote our ponies. Don't forget to send information for the “Meet the Members” blurb.

  • List of Horse Breeds 1 List of Horse Breeds
    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.

  • Think Twice About Risks of Horse Rental Business by Robert C
    Think Twice About Risks of Horse Rental Business By Robert C. Church It is unrealistic to consider profit as an incentive for owning horses on a limited, part-time basis. Liability insurance makes it almost prohibitive for even full-time stables with professional help to operate. An element of risk for a horse-oriented busi- ness has never been established; therefore, the insurance rate is arbitrarily set. Volume of business and services such as indoor riding arenas, instruction and training, and professional supervision offered to their clientele keep the full-time stables profitable. Most rental stables cater to the novice rider who has had no formal instruction and thus is a considerable risk on a horse. A person who keeps horses for public hire must become familiar with the habits, disposition and traits of the horses. An owner who knows a particular horse is apt to be vicious may be held liable for injuries caused by that animal. The rental horse business is fraught with risk and should be entered into only after considering suitability of the horses involved, insurance costs, availability and safety of trails, and the expertise of those who will supervise riding. Some people use personal mounts for riding instruction.- In most cases a homeowner's policy will cover liability if this enterprise falls within the confines of a casual and not a full- time enterprise. However, many recently written policies do not include this type coverage. If you have the required skills, training horses on limited acreage as a part-time occupation can provide supplemental income.
