Peruvian Paso Horse Registry of North America

   
   INSTRUCTIONS TO REGISTER
   A MALE ("T" NUMBERED HORSE)
    AS A BREEDING STALLION
    ("S" NUMBERED HORSE)



While PPHRNA Certificates do not show the gender of a horse as a letter preceding 
the registration number, the stud book and other listings DO use the initials M 
for mare, G for gelding, S for stallion (registered for breeding purposes) and 
T (male not registered for breeding purposes).


Effective January 1, 1984, all ungelded males newly registered or transferred 
to the PPHRNA must be specifically registered for breeding purposes.  In order 
to register a male for breeding purposes in the PPHRNA you should first send to 
the Registry office the male's original PPHRNA certificate of registration, 
the $100 fee and a note stating that you wish to register him for breeding.  
The Registry will then send you a kit for the DNA typing required (complete 
with instructions, forms and package for shipping to UC Davis), a statement 
form on descended testicles for a licensed veterinarian to completed and a 
Witness Statement (on the collection of the DNA.)  The $125 fee to the Registry 
includes the cost of the DNA typing work at Davis so you need send no money 
with the samples (but it is vital that you do send the PPHRNA DNA form to 
Davis with the samples.)  The  Witness Statement on the collection of the DNA 
sample must be returned with the Vet Statement on descended testicles to the PPHRNA.


Once the University sends the PPHRNA the results of your stallion's DNA type 
and the office has received the veterinarian's statement on descended testicles 
and the Witness Statement, the Registrar will change your horses's status to "S" 
and issue a new certificate.


[Note:  Any ungelded male registered with the PPHRNA prior to registration 
number # 4045 is considered eligible for use as a breeding stallion without 
the above requirements.  (Please note: most stallions registered for breeding 
prior to January 1995 were blood typed.  Starting in 1995, DNA typing will be 
required.  ALL stallions used for A.I., Shipped Fresh or Frozen Semen or Embryo
Transfer programs MUST have their DNA type on file prior to their use in such
programs and the PPHRNA strongly suggests that all stallions used for breeding
have their DNA types on file.]


[NOTE FOR STALLIONS ALREADY REGISTERED FOR BREEDING WITH THE AAOBPPH: If your
stallion's DNA type has already been determined by UC Davis, you need not 
re-type him.  The PPHRNA will accept a clear copy of the DNA typing results 
from either UC Davis, the owner or the AAOBPPH. You may request the results 
from Davis by sending your horse's name and number to: Veterinary Genetics
Laboratory, School of Veterinary Medicine, University of California, Davis, 
CA 95616.  (Call Davis for current fee.)  In addition, the PPHRNA will accept 
copies from the AAOBPPH of veterinary statements on descended testicles.  
Please note that the fee for registering such stallions for breeding is $125.
