Chase,
AQHA does not knowingly skip transfers. You’ll need all transfers for each owner up to your purchase in order to get the horse transferred into your name. Check out our transfer video tutorial for more information.

Crystal,

Thank you for your e-mail and to answer your question, you can send the information the mare owner gave you and we can request the signature from the stallion owner. If he doesn’t sign then this is consider a civil matter. If we are unable to register the horse we will refund your money. I hope this will help you.

I have a seal bay (brown under black, black points, agoutti gene)1!out of dam:Blackwell Cat Chex and sire:Settle it on Sunday. I bought her from a veterinarian who owned the dam. He gave me papers to register her as half Quarter Horse because a dispute between him and the stallion owner so they would not release the sires side to register her AQHA. What can I do to get these so I can register her AQHA? (I’m breeding with an AQHA stud and really would like to register the foal.)

Hi, I am about to buy a solid paint bred 4 year old mare bred out of Colonelsmokinggun AQHA/APHA stud and a solid paint bred dam out of smart little lena and another solid paint bred mare who herself was bred out of 2 registered quarter horses. Could this 4 year old be dual register AQHA/APHA considering the fact the 2 parents of her grand mother are AQHA horses? It seems very strange that a solid sorrel horse that was born out of 2 aqha horses was registered as a solid paint bred to start with, because of this all her foals, even if they don’t present any white markings and their sire is AQHA, have to be registered with the APHA. Is it possible that this horse has already dual registration? (all I have is the APHA certificate of registration)
Thank you for your help in this matter.

Hannah, your best bet is to start by calling AQHA Customer Service and telling them everything you know about the horse. She might already be registered, and you’ll just need to get her transferred into your name. Give us a call! 806-376-4811. Thanks for your question!

Kelly,

Thank you for your e-mail and yes I would include photos along with the transfer and ask for them to be reviewed.

I just bought a 3 year old registered filly. On her papers she’s listed as a bay. She currently has the markings of a dun (dorsal stripe, leg barring, and some greyish areas on the legs). Do I need to note those changes on the transfer report, and send several photos?

I have a breeding stock registered APHA grulla mare that I am planning on breeding this spring to a AQHA and NFQHA registered stallion. My question is will I be able to register the baby AQHA & APHA or just APHA?
