Re: [RC] Gaited horse statistics - Teri Hunter

If you want accurate statistics then they should be listed as they are
either registered or not registered.  If you register them how you feel then
the stats are not true.  Truman, master of stats, tell me your thoughts.

If one parent is an Arabian and one is not, the result is a half-arab, and
can and should be listed as such in AERC IMO.

Whether or not it is registered with the AHA is an entirely separate point.
AERC chooses to let people self-identify what their horse's breed is.

I could be mistaken here but a half arab is registered.  A
grade is not registered so if you have an arabian that is not
registered it is a grade not half arabian.
