NORTH AMERICAN PERUVIAN HORSE ASSOCIATION
INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE
REGISTRATION OF A HORSE
WITH NAPHA
1. Complete the NAPHA's registration application form. (Please type or print in
ink and be sure to write out the sex of the horse instead of using initials.)
Be sure that all sections are completed and signed by the appropriate owner(s:
a) Top third is to be signed by the recorded owner (or Recorded Agent
or Recorded Lessee) of the dam at the time of foaling. "Owner"
(Foal will be registered to this person unless there is a "Sale of
an Eligible but Unregistered Foal" form returned with the transfer
fee at the time of registration.)
b) Middle third (Breeder's Certificate) is to be signed by the recorded
owner (or Recorded Agent or Recorded Lessee) of the dam at the time
of service. "Breeder"
c) Bottom third (Service Certificate) is to be signed by the recorded
owner (or Recorded Agent or Recorded Lessee) of the sire at the time
of service.
2. Complete the markings section on the back of the application. Be sure to do so
with the horse in front of you to insure accurate markings for identification.
Please add: EYE COLOR (Dark, amber, hazel, blue, etc.) to the markings
description. It is helpful in determining color.
3. Return to the NAPHA with:
a) the appropriate fee (see current Fee Schedule)
b) the required color photographs (at least two - one of each side
which show all markings as well as the face of the horse). Please
clearly label photos with horse's name. We would prefer that the
photographs NOT be Polaroid type unless they are of excellent
quality - clearly and accurately showing the color and markings of
the horse. If the photos submitted do not show all four legs from
each side and the designated color of the horse, the Registrar will
be required to request additional ones. Digital or color copies not
allowed.
4. If a sire is only registered with the AAOBPPH and was registered there after
September 30, 1999, verification of parentage for the sire must be submitted
prior to acceptance of any foals for registration.
Please note: ALL ungelded males registered or transferred to the NAPHA will be
registered with a "T" number indicating that they have not yet been registered for
breeding purposes. These horses will be subject to NAPHA rules regarding
registration of stallions for breeding (those rules require DNA typing by UC Davis,
a veterinarian's statement that the horse has two normal, descended testicles and a
fee of $125 which includes the DNA typing costs.)
If you have any questions, please contact the NAPHA office.
