How can i track down..?

Question

I would really like to track down my ponies shire and dam. She is a 100% new forest and has a new forest passport. On the passport it states her shire and dams names and dates of birth i was just wondering if it was possible for me to find out any infomation about what they have done and i would love to see a picture of them if thats possible. Any help would be really appreciated.

Answer 1

A lot of times, all you have to do is call the breed registry, and say you want a show record for "Horses Name" and they will send you one.  Its usually only a few dollars.  You can also get a sire/dam record for the foals they have produced.  If you google/yahoo the names, the stallion might still be around, and have a website with a list of accomplishments of him and his foals.  Good luck!

Answer 2

The passport should state the pony's breeder - if not, you'll be able to trace the breeder through the breed society. If the passport has the name and address of the breeder (I don't have NFs, so don't know their passports, but most societies have breeder addresses in the front section) you can write to them and let them know you have the pony - I'm sure they'd be delighted to know where she's ended up.

The breed society more than likely has a record of who owns all the ponies currently registered - as I said I'm not familiar with the New Forest way of doing things, but other societies require an official form and stamp on the passport to transfer ownership, and I don't expect the NF society will be any different. They won't be able to tell you who owns the ponies due to data protection, but they may be able to forward a letter if you ask nicely!

Failing that, join a NF or native pony enthusiasts club - there are clubs all over the place, and there is sure to be someone not too far away who knows of your pony's sire or dam. The native pony world is not that big!

Answer 3

Just try googling their names. The sire would be most likely to have info on the web. You could also check the New Forest registry.

Answer 4

is she registered?

if so, i'd get ahold of the registry she's registered with, and try to get the information on the owners of her sire and dam. googling them is also a great idea. i did that with my appy mare, and here her pedigree traces clear back to the edgadolphian arabian. pretty snazzy =]
