The
American Paint Horse Association (APHA) is offering members discounts on
registering older horse, as well as for multiple transfers of registered horses.
Until
now, registering older horses was costly. The association’s new plan will allow
owners to save as much as $400.
Multiple
Transfers
The
second portion of the Registration Incentive allows current owners to transfer
ownership of a registered American Paint Horse multiple times for a one-time fee
of $15.
For
example: John bought a horse from Steve, who bought it from Shirley. If Steve
had not sent in the horse’s registration certificate and paid his transfer fees,
John would normally have to pay for two transfers ($30) to get the horse
registered in his name. Under the Transfer provision, John pays only
$15.
“Now
is the perfect time to take advantage of the multiple transfer discount and
update your horse’s ownership records if you find yourself in this situation,”
said APHA Managing Director of Registration Cindy Grier.
All
registered American Paint Horse owners are encouraged to look over their horses’
registration certificates at this time and submit any updates to APHA to bring
their records and the association’s current. American Paint Horses are being
registered at APHA’s Forth Worth, Texas, headquarters at a rate of more than
35,000 horses each year. For more information visit apha.com.
