Save on Horse Registration Fees by December 31

Fee increases approved by the American Paint Horse Association Executive Committee and effective January 1, 2013, mean American Paint Horse owners can save money by submitting horse registration applications by December 31, 2012. To take advantage of the lower 2012 registration fees, owners must submit the appropriate paperwork to be postmarked by December 31.

Download a registration application at press.apha.com/pdfs/registration/regapp.pdf. Completed registration applications must be accompanied by at least four clear, color, close photographs of the horse. These photographs must include each side and the front and rear views. Please do not trim or mark on the photographs. If the horse is freeze–branded, a photo of brand must accompany application.
