How can I look up my horse's brand?

Question

I am trying to find my horses orginal home. I had a friend who found a website where it had a huge list of brands and what farms owned them. She found her horse's original owner by looking up the brand on her horse. She can't remember the site, so I am hoping someone can help me out. Does anyone know of a good website to look up horse brands?

thanks!

Answer 1

State brand inspectors generally have a file on registered brands.  Unless your horse got his/her's from some idiot who just wanted to brand their horse.

Answer 2

No, but I'll bet if you google in the words "horse brands" you might find it online.  Also, call your local state livestock inspector or brand inspector and see if you can get any leads.

Answer 3

I suggest typing in your horse brand on Google.

Answer 4

All brands should be registered at your states Agg extention. You can go to your county office to find out what your brand is and who's it is. There is no realy good web site to tell you where the brand came from but, I am sure that there are websites that can teach you how to read brands. And brand can be duplicated from state to state without the same owner.
