Welfare of the Horse must never be subordinated to competitive or commercial influences. The following points must be particularly adhered to: 1. General Welfare: a) Good Horse management Stabling and feeding must be compatible with the best Horse management practices. Clean and good quality forage, feed and water must always be available. b) Training methods Horses must only undergo training that matches their physical capabilities and level of maturity for their respective disciplines. They must not be subjected to methods which are abusive or cause fear. c) Farriery and tack Foot care and shoeing must be of a high standard. Tack must be designed and fitted to avoid the risk of pain or injury. d) Transport During transportation, Horses must be fully protected against injuries and other health risks. Vehicles must be safe, well ventilated, maintained to a high standard, disinfected regularly and driven by competent personnel. Competent handlers must always be available to manage the Horses. e) Transit All journeys must be planned carefully, and Horses allowed regular rest periods with access to food and water in line with current FEI guidelines. 2. Fitness to compete: a) Fitness and competence Participation in Competition must be restricted to fit Horses and Athletes of proven competence. Horses must be allowed suitable rest period between training and Competitions; additionally rest periods should be allowed following travelling. b) Health status No Horse deemed unfit to compete may compete or continue to compete; veterinary advice must be sought whenever there is any doubt. c) Doping and Medication Any action or intent of doping and illicit use of medication constitutes a serious welfare issue and will not be tolerated. After any veterinary treatment, sufficient time must be allowed for full recovery before Competition. d) Surgical procedures Any surgical procedures that threaten a competing Horse’s welfare or the safety of other Horses and/or Athletes must not be allowed. e) Pregnant/recently foaled mares. Mares must not compete after their fourth month of pregnancy or with foal at foot. f) Misuse of aids Abuse of a Horse using natural riding aids or artificial aids (e.g. whips, spurs, etc.) will not be tolerated. 4 FEI Code of Conduct for the Welfare of the Horse 3. Events must not prejudice Horse welfare: a) Competition areas Horses must be trained and compete on suitable and safe surfaces. All obstacles and Competition conditions must be designed with the safety of the Horse in mind. b) Ground surfaces All ground surfaces on which Horses walk, train or compete must be designed and maintained to reduce factors that could lead to injuries. c) Extreme weather Competitions must not take place in extreme weather conditions that may compromise welfare or safety of the Horse. Provision must be made for cooling conditions and equipment for Horses after competing. d) Stabling at Events Stables must be safe, hygienic, comfortable,

  • Evaluating and Comparing Descendants of Stallions from the Dark Ronald Line in Czech Warmblood Breeding According to Basic Body Measurements
    11 1RYHPEHU 2020, Brno, Czech Republic Evaluating and comparing descendants of stallions from the Dark Ronald line in Czech Warmblood breeding according to basic body measurements Zuzana Kubikova, Iva Jiskrova, Barbora Kubistova Department of Animal Breeding Mendel University in Brno Zemedelska 1, 613 00 Brno CZECH REPUBLIC [email protected] Abstract: The aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of the Dark Ronald stallion line in the breeding of the Czech Warmblood. To evaluate the importance of the line, the offspring of stallions authorized to act as stud horses in the breeding of the Czech Warmblood were used. The values of the basic body measurements of their offspring (SHW, THW, ChC and CBC) were used to evaluate the quality of the stallions. A total of 6 breeding stallions were compared: two representatives of the Holsteiner horse (2765 CASSILIUS, 2666 PORTER), one Russian Holsteiner (2782 BALLAST), one Slovak Warmblood (794 CORSÁR), one Dutch Warmblood (2745 OSCAR) and one representative of the Zweibrücker breed (662 CARBIDO). The group for comparison consisted of 284 offspring of the Czech Warmblood breed from these sires. Evaluation by the GLM model detected statistically significant differences between the basic body measurements of the individual groups of offspring. The influence of the dams on the basic body measurements of offspring was taken into account by a graphical comparison of the massiveness and boniness indices. It was found that the stallion 2782 BALLAST significantly affects the massiveness of his offspring, but the dam has a greater influence on boniness than the sire. Furthermore, it was found that mares are statistically significantly more massive than stallions, but that they have a smaller cannon bone circumference.

  • 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.

  • Original Research Article Multivariate Discrimination of Czech
    DOI: 10.2478/ats-2013-0015 AGRICULTURA TROPICA ET SUBTROPICA, 46/3, 86-90, 2013 Original Research Article Multivariate Discrimination of Czech Autochthonous Horses Stepanka Holeckova1, Richard Policht1,2, Dominika Polichtova 1Faculty of Tropical AgriSciences, Czech University of Life Sciences Prague, Czech Republic 2Ethology group, Institute of Animal Science, Praha, Uhříněves, Czech Republic Abstract We have used a discriminant function analysis to compare morphology of five Czech autochthonous breeds (including two colour varieties as independent breeds) to test whether a small number of basic morphological variables (wither height, thoracic, nose and shin perimeter, length of head) can discriminate them. The breeds included Czech Warmblood, black and grey colour variety of the Old Kladruby horse, Czech-Moravian Belgian horse and Silesian Noriker. The tested individuals were assigned with overall 81.9% classification success to correct breed. The best classification result reached Czech Warmblood 95.7%, the black Old Kladruby horse 87.5% and Silesian Noriker, respectively, 85.7%. Czech-Moravian Belgian horse showed a poorer success of classification (60%). Discrimination analysis identified the most important variables related to their head (nose perimeter and length of the head). Based on discrimination model both colour varieties of the Old Kladruby horse clustered more closely. Similarly both cold-blooded breeds (Czech-Moravian Belgian and Silesian Noriker) grouped more together and locations of the Czech warmbloods were more apart from all others. Such result is in concordance with the origin history of these horses. Keywords: autochthonous horses, discriminant analysis, Equus caballus, morphology. INTRODUCTION the Old Kladruby horses, with the most pronounced nose profile, but also for other breeds.

Straub Treatment of Equine Sarcoid with the mistletoe extract ISCADOR® P (viscum album austriacus) - a double-blind placebo controlled study Inaugural-Dissertation zur Erlangung der Doktorwürde der Vetsuisse-Fakultät der Universität Bern vorgelegt von Ophélie Clottu von Cornaux und Neuchâtel 2008 1 Von der Vetsuisse-Fakultät der Universität Bern auf Antrag von Prof. Dr. R. Straub als Dissertation genehmigt. Bern, den Der Dekan der Vetsuisse-Fakultät der Universität Bern 2 Treatment of Equine Sarcoid with the mistletoe extract ISCADOR® P (viscum album austriacus) - a double-blind placebo controlled study Summary Background: The Equine Sarcoid (ES) is the most common skin tumour in horses. It is difficult to treat: recurrence rate is high and no single universally effective treatment for ES is known. Viscum album extracts (VAE) are used as adjunct in the treatment of some human cancers without known side effects. Hypothesis: We hypothesized that the long-term therapy with VAE (Iscador® P) is effective in Equine Sarcoids as a single treatment or as an adjunct treatment to selective surgical excision. Material and methods: Of 53 horses with ES, 42 were treated solely with VAE as monotherapy and 11 were treated after selective excision of ES. Horses were randomly assigned to the treatment group (VAE; n=32) or control group (Placebo; n=21). The horses received rising concentrations of Iscador® P extract from 0.1 mg per ml to 20 mg per ml or physiological NaCl solution 3 times a week over 105 days s.c.

  • 1 Nature of Horse Breeds
    1 Nature of Horse Breeds The horse captures our imagination because of its beauty, power and, most of all, its personality. Today, we encounter a wide array of horse breeds, developed for diverse purposes. Much of this diversity did not exist at the time of domestication of the horse, 5500 years ago (Chapter 2). Modern breeds were developed through genetic selection and based on the variety of uses of horses during the advance of civilization. Domestication of the horse revolutionized civilization. A rider could go farther and faster than people had ever gone before. Horses provided power to till more land and move heavier loads. Any sort of horse could provide these benefits, as long as it could be domesticated. However, over time people became more discern- ing about the characteristics of their horses. The intuitive and genetic principle that “like begat like” led people to choose the best horses as breeding stock. At the same time, people in different parts of the world used different criteria when select- ing horses. The horses were raised in different climates, fed different rations, exposed to different infectious diseases, and asked to do different types of work. Genetic differences could and did have a large impact on these traits. Over time, selection led to the creation of diverse types of horse around the world. We use a variety of terms to describe the genetic diversity among groups of animals, both to distinguish horses from other animals and examine differences among the different types of horses. Those terms include genus, species, popula- tion, landrace, and breed.

RESUME Sédation et anesthésie chez les chevaux et mules militaires. Revue et utilisation dans l'armée suisse. L'armée suisse utilise depuis plus de 100 ans différents types de chevaux pour des missions spéciales. Trois races sont utilisées : Les chevaux de race demi-sang suisse pour l'équitation, les chevaux Franches-Montagnes et les mulets comme « chevaux de bât » pour le transport. Cet article passe en revue les substances, dosages et voies d'administration qui permettent de réaliser des sédations et des anesthésies simples chez le cheval comme sur le mulet, dans le terrain et dans un contexte militaire. Cette contribution est aussi destinée aux autres armées qui utilisent des mulets dans la mesure où la littérature n'est pas très riche dans ce domaine.

  • Evaluating the Importance of the Stallion Scyris in the Breeding of the Czech Warmblood
    November 8–9, 2017, Brno, Czech Republic 24 years EVALUATING THE IMPORTANCE OF THE STALLION SCYRIS IN THE BREEDING OF THE CZECH WARMBLOOD ZUZANA KUBIKOVA, IVA JISKROVA Department of Animal Breeding Mendel University in Brno Zemedelska 1, 613 00 Brno CZECH REPUBLIC [email protected] Abstract: The aim of this thesis was to evaluate the importance of the stud stallion Scyris in the breeding of the Czech Warmblood. To evaluate the stud horse we used his offspring born in the years 2011−2016. Two underlying databases were then created in the programme Microsoft Office Excel 2007. The first was used to assess linear regression and the second to assess correlation using the Pearson correlation coefficient. On the basis of aggregate statistics from these measurements, it can be stated that the dams are unbalanced in exterior terms, and stallion 606 Scyris (POL) did not completely succeed in balancing out this variability in his daughters. In the next step, the correlation dependence of individual body measurements was assessed in daughters and dams. It was determined that there is medium correlation dependence between the attributes TWH (tape withers height), SWH (stick withers height) and CBC (cannon bone circumference), so it can be said that the influence of dams on the bone mass and withers height of daughters is probable but is not conclusive. With the attribute ChC (chest circumference) low correlation dependence between dams and daughters was recorded. This suggests that the dams have a lesser influence on the bulkiness of daughters. When assessing the linear regression, we recorded a decreasing tendency of the regression coefficient with regard to offspring class which exhibits 16% reliability and according to our test emerges as statistically conclusive.

  • Survey of Risk Factors and Genetic Characterization of Ewe Neck in a World Population of Pura Raza Español Horses
    animals Article Survey of Risk Factors and Genetic Characterization of Ewe Neck in a World Population of Pura Raza Español Horses María Ripolles 1, María J. Sánchez-Guerrero 1,2,*, Davinia I. Perdomo-González 1 , Pedro Azor 1 and Mercedes Valera 1 1 Department of Agro-Forestry Sciences, ETSIA, University of Seville, Carretera de Utrera Km 1, 41013 Sevilla, Spain; [email protected] (M.R.); [email protected] (D.I.P.-G.); [email protected] (P.A.); [email protected] (M.V.) 2 Department of Molecular Biology and Biochemistry Engineering, Universidad Pablo de Olavide, Carretera de Utrera Km 1, 41013 Sevilla, Spain * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +34-9-5448-6461 Received: 31 July 2020; Accepted: 27 September 2020; Published: 1 October 2020 Simple Summary: Ewe Neck is a common morphological defect of the Pura Raza Español (PRE) population, which seriously affects the horse’s development. In this PRE population (35,267 PRE), a total of 9693 animals (27.12% of total) was Ewe Neck-affected. It has been demonstrated that genetic and risk factors (sex, age, geographical area, coat color, and stud size) are involved, being more prevalent in the males, 4–7 years old, chestnut coat, from small studs (less than 5 mares), and raised in North America. The morphological traits height at chest, length of back, head-neck junction, and bottom neck-body junction and the body indices, head index, and thoracic index were those most closely related with the appearance of this morphological defect. The additional genetic base of Ewe Neck in PRE, which presents low-moderate heritability (h2: 0.23–0.34), shows that the prevalence of this defect could be effectively reduced by genetic selection.
