REGISTERING A HORSE

---

1. BPS Membership form (only if you are not a current member of the Barock Pinto Association of North America

3. BPS Horse Registration Form.

 You also must include copies of the registration(if horse is registered with another organization) and pedigree papers for each horse that you are registering.

 Also include the registration and pedigree papers of the sire and dam, if available, unless they are already registered with the BPS.

If registration papers are not available and the parent(s) are unknown, write unknown for parents.

3. DNA Veterinary Statement- must be signed by a licensed veterinarian.

If registration papers are available, write unknown for parents.

A Microchip is required to register all horses. If your horse does not have a microchip one must be inserted by a licensed veterinarian who completes the microchip information on the Registration Form. This must be completed before you may enter your horse into an inspection. Copies of the verification of microchip implantation must be sent with the registration form if the horse is recently microchipped.

If parents are known, copy pedigrees and mail copies of both parents pedigrees with the registration form. If the parents are not registered in the BPS and are availlable, have a licensed veterinarian pull hair samples, place in  paper envelope(not plastic)label them with the horses name, owners name, date of birth and microchip number. You do not need to have the pedigrees of the sire and dam to register your horse. Your horse can be registered with an unknown pedigree.

All registered horses must have  DNA hair samples on file. 

Whenever possible,  also send DNA hair samples with the completed DNA form for the dam and sire. If the sire is an Approved Stallion with the BPS, hair samples from the sire are not required.

DNA samples play an important role in maintaining a database and ensuring the continued documented pedigrees of our beautiful Barock Pinto Horses.
