RE: [RC] Gaited horse statistics - Kristen A FisherMy point is, they do not have to be "registered" to be the breed they are. The sire & dam are what they are, producing a foal that is what it is, whether there are official papers that say so. If both parents are Arabs, the get is an Arab, whether you pay your $ to AHA or not. -----Original Message----- From: ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Teri Hunter Sent: Wednesday, May 31, 2006 1:20 PM To: Kristen A Fisher; 'Sharon Levasseur' Cc: 'ridecamp' Subject: Re: [RC] Gaited horse statistics 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.

Whether or not it is registered with the AHA is an entirelyseparatepoint. AERC chooses to let people self-identify what their horse'sbreed is.Kristen-----Original Message----- From: ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:ridecamp-owner@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Teri Hunter Sent: Wednesday, May 31, 2006 12:41 PM To: Sharon Levasseur; Michael Maul Cc: ridecamp Subject: Re: [RC] Gaited horse statistics 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. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Sharon Levasseur" <sharon1359@xxxxxxxxxxx> To: "Michael Maul" <mmaul@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: "ridecamp" <ridecamp@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, May 31, 2006 1:22 PM Subject: Re: [RC] Gaited horse statisticsI bet I wasn't the only person who thought since my horsedidn't have aregistration number, I wasn't ALLOWED to choose half-Arab. I'll be making the change soon, thanks. Although, if thereWAS a "gaited"designation I think I would not mark it, as the trot is ourendurance gaitof choice. His foxtrot is too slow. The only reason I evertell anyone he'sgaited is that the vets sometimes see him foxtrot and if Ididn't tellthem in advance they'd definitely be surprised!! Thanks, -Sharon L. & Zephyr the Arab/RMH Quoting Michael Maul <mmaul@xxxxxxxxx>:Laney, The categories we have now just "grew" in response tomember requestsfor their particular breed. If I had to guess - half Arab means that the horse islisted in thepartbred section of the AHA registry and that Arabcross is not. Icould be wrong on this. In the partbred AHA records -we can getpedigrees for AAHR and HAHR. I personally would chose grade only if I didn't have anyclue what thebreed was. Other is if none of the other 59 categoriesfits but is areal breed. There are certainly horses that gait and the ownerdoesn't have a cluewhat they are. At the Old Glory ride last w/e, I was riding behind a galand noticedshe wasn't posting. I asked her what type of gaitedhorse she wasriding and she didn't know. She certainly liked ridinghim though.Making sure your horse is listed correctly in the recordshelps us getbetter statistics for breed awards as well as just better data.

I wish that the "arab cross" and"half arab"groups could be combined because they are the samething. However, itwould be very nice to know what the other "half" or"cross" is too. Iffolks are interested in whether a horse is gaited ornot, there shouldbe a way to indicate that for breeds where it wouldn'tbe normal. Thatwould include even "arab cross" and "half arab." Thereare also gaitedappaloosas, morgans and quite a few others, including"arab" andcertainly "grade." laney=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net,http://www.endurance.net.Information, Policy, Disclaimer:http://www.endurance.net/RidecampSubscribe/Unsubscribehttp://www.endurance.net/ridecamp/logon.aspRide Long and Ride Safe!!=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-==-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
