Sometimes they reverse themselves and make a law "for it" as they did in 1939 when the legislature passed the following resolution: "Whereas, this is the year recognized as the 150th anniversa y of the famous horse 'Justin Morgan,' which horse not only established a recognized breed of horses named for a single individual, but brought fame th•tzugh his descendants to Vermont and thousands of dollars to Vermonters. "The name Morgan has come to mean beauty, spirit, and action to all lovers of the horse; and the Morgan horses fo• many years held the world's record for trotting horses, and "Whereas the Morgan blood is recognized as foundation stock for the American Saddle Horse, for the American Trotting Horse, and for the Tennessee Walking Horse. In each of these three breeds, the Morgan horse is recognized as a foundation, and therefore, with the recognition of its value to the horse b seeders of the nation, and recognition that it was in Vermont that Morgan horses were first established, therefore be it "Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives, that a committee consisting of one senator and two representatives be appointed by the p esiding officers of each body, respectively, to make some recommendation for the proper recognition of the 150th anniversary of the birth of the horse 'Justin Morgan' and to report to this present session of the General Assembly." So Vermont paid tribute to a horse that is part of Vermont history and had much in common with the people of the Green mountain state. Early settlers had to he rugged to make corn grow in hilly country spiked with stone and ledge. So are Morgans rugged. Old Justin himself first emerged from obscurity for his astounding prowess in pulling logs. Vermonters are workers. A stone wall is pretty to look at but think of the back- breaking labor! Morgans are workers too, but no doleful drudges, rather cheerful, willing and intelligent. Vermonters run to "family" and are said to pass on their traits to their children and grandchildren. So with Morgans. Justin was famed fo r his remarkable ability to pass on his valuable qualities to his descendants. In Vermont there's a tradition of keeping your legs under you to the last. If that isn't a Morgan — Old Justin lived to the great age (for a horse) of 29 years, and died (like a Yankee with his boots on), not of any infirmity — but an accident. — Table of Contents felierA to SPECIAL FEATURES Ferguson's Luck 6 New Foal — New Responsibility 12 Minnesota Judging School 15 the Editom Out of the Past 30 Excellent!

  • Purebred Dog Breeds Into the Twenty-First Century: Achieving Genetic Health for Our Dogs
    Purebred Dog Breeds into the Twenty-First Century: Achieving Genetic Health for Our Dogs BY JEFFREY BRAGG WHAT IS A CANINE BREED? What is a breed? To put the question more precisely, what are the necessary conditions that enable us to say with conviction, "this group of animals constitutes a distinct breed?" In the cynological world, three separate approaches combine to constitute canine breeds. Dogs are distinguished first by ancestry , all of the individuals descending from a particular founder group (and only from that group) being designated as a breed. Next they are distinguished by purpose or utility, some breeds existing for the purpose of hunting particular kinds of game,others for the performance of particular tasks in cooperation with their human masters, while yet others owe their existence simply to humankind's desire for animal companionship. Finally dogs are distinguished by typology , breed standards (whether written or unwritten) being used to describe and to recognize dogs of specific size, physical build, general appearance, shape of head, style of ears and tail, etc., which are said to be of the same breed owing to their similarity in the foregoing respects. The preceding statements are both obvious and known to all breeders and fanciers of the canine species. Nevertheless a correct and full understanding of these simple truisms is vital to the proper functioning of the entire canine fancy and to the health and well being of the animals which are the object of that fancy. It is my purpose in this brief to elucidate the interrelationship of the above three approaches, to demonstrate how distortions and misunderstandings of that interrelationship now threaten the health of all of our dogs and the very existence of the various canine breeds, and to propose reforms which will restore both balanced breed identity and genetic health to CKC breeds.

  • 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.

Brussels PRINTED FOR MELINE, CANS A.ND C"., EOILEVARD DE WATERLOO, Zi. M DCCC XXXIX. MR V. un:ve PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION. To assist in the detection of spurious and the correction of inaccu- rate pedigrees, is one of the purposes of the present publication, in which respect the first Volume has been of acknowledged utility. The two together, it is hoped, will form a comprehensive and tole- rably correct Register of Pedigrees. It will be observed that some of the Mares which appeared in the last Supplement (whereof this is a republication and continua- tion) stand as they did there, i. e. without any additions to their produce since 1813 or 1814. — It has been ascertained that several of them were about that time sold by public auction, and as all attempts to trace them have failed, the probability is that they have either been converted to some other use, or been sent abroad. If any proof were wanting of the superiority of the English breed of horses over that of every other country, it might be found in the avidity with which they are sought by Foreigners. The exportation of them to Russia, France, Germany, etc. for the last five years has been so considerable, as to render it an object of some importance in a commercial point of view.
