Registration

The term “Breeder” applies to the owner or lessee of the named Dam at the time of foaling.  The Breeder is responsible for CSHA registration or Colt Notification of the Foal.

All horses (except geldings) must be DNA tested: Request for DNA Parentage Verification. This rule applies to all horses entering the Mare (Filly) and Stallion Registers. The Rule will not apply to horses entering the non-breeding register.

Every animal must have a registered prefix. If new breeders do not have a prefix, please contact the Canadian Livestock Records Corp at CLRC@clrc.ca to ensure your chosen Prefix has not been previously registered.   Complete the Application for Registration of Prefix and submit the onetime fee.
