Scottishlass, I was surprised at first also that almost no one is talking about it. But I think maybe it makes lots of people nervous, to find out, since we have been told the % can be high for carriers. But even if they are not talking I was excited to hear that lots are testing Susan O.

I got some good news today from Dr. Graves at the U of KY. She said they have been swamped with people sending in samples to be tested. I'm so glad lots of people are taking advantage of this test and having their minis tested. Susan O.

I have a question for any and all who would like to give your thoughts on it. If you test and find some of your horses are carriers, but very nice correct examples of miniature horses.......... what do you plan to do with your carriers.......? Keep them for showing or pets or therapy or some...

Tremor, I don't think I'm supposed to put a link to FB on here but if you go to FB and type in ASPC/AMHR/ASPR in the search bar you will get the page that Lewella posted it in. Just scroll down til you see her post, not very far down. Susan O.

Hey John, I want to truly thank you for putting up with my questions clear back from ten years ago or more and helping me learn more and more about this as you did your research. I remember having to have you explain some things about the different types over and over til I grasped how the...

Testing is now available for miniature horse dwarfism. I am so thankful to John Eberth for his countless hours and many many years of work on this! http://www2.ca.uky.edu/gluck/AGTRL.asp#tests If my link does not work, message me and I'll give you the link to post. Susan O. edited to...

I think she is either smokey black or smokey silver black.

secuono, yes you are correct that as of now, if you have a horse who has no papers, you cannot hardship it into either AMHA or AMHR. Of course, there is always the "possibility" that at some time in the future the membership of either registry might vote to change the rule and re-open the...

Gage, I always love that you saw that cloud. I'm excited that you have a camera this year as well and can't wait to see his foals for you. Susan O.

I agree with all those who wanted to share it, Kim. You did such a great job. Susan O.

Jacki, if you look at the top of the Forum front page underneath all the banner ads, you will see this in red. Chondrodysplasia-like Dwarfism in the Miniature Horse. Click on that. Susan O.

Thanks Jody, I "have" written to my directors and told them how I feel about keeping the hardship registration open. I did it two years ago when I knew someone had a proposal written to that effect. After the dwarf test is out and we have a better idea of what percentage of minis carry a...

Yes I always thought it was the people who make it to the meeting, who vote. I wish it was lots closer to me. And because I do not make it to the meetings I try not to complain too loudly about things. I was just expressing my thoughts on the closing of the hardship registration and how I...

Sorry I did not phrase it quite right. Thanks for clarifying. Susan O.

Jody, I did not think it did have anything to do with their decision. I just wondered if the results of testing once it happens might make them start to think about it and wonder if they made the right decision. But I might be totally wrong. And it very well might not have any effect at all...

You can to AMHA if it is at least 3 years old and 34" or under, but it closes as of December 31. So you need to get the registration and payment to AMHA by December 31. Then you have until March 31 for the inspection and paperwork to be done. Susan O.

I am wondering if they might consider proposals to reopen it after the dwarf genes test is available, on the chance that there really is as great a percentage as has been estimated to be in the overall population of AMHA horses. I have heard anywhere from 50% to 80% possibility of minis being...

I will not be surprised if hardship registration is reopened again someday. Susan O.

I loved seeing Sister Tereska online at the World show and was rooting for her! I'm so happy for all of you! Wish I lived closer to visit your farm. Susan O.

They are all stunning Susan O.
