But, do you not agree that it is worthwhile to provide some support for the stallion owner by asking for documentation that the breeding was paid for. My policy proposal would, in this circumstance, avoid having to look inside the transaction except when there was a standard breeding contract. Admittedly, even with a pre-breeding contract, should the NFHR really have to get into things like, "did the check bounce for the breeding payment" or, is the breeding contract impermissibly vague. You might have a point for excluding the stallion owner from the entire registration process given the wonders of DNA. Or...providing a relatively easy "registration by exception" procedure...which is maybe what the current registration procedure requires. I am crossposting this to the other Fjord list because I really would like to see discussions of this as a POLICY issue. I suspect everyone thinks I am opening up a can of worms, but it seems to me that we have a legitimate reason to look carefully at the policy. I left Ruthie's entire message deliberately, as I think it is worth being able to look at the complete point she is making. I BELIEVE it is not the business of the NFHR to interpret private treaties in individual transactions, to champion one party or position over another. This kind of partisan tinkering can only detract from the big picture, which is promoting the Fjord horse and expanding a strong breed association. I believe if we simply remove the people equation of this registration dilemma, and focus on the welfare of the Fjord offspring, we can see immediately that we need to be about the business of the REGISTRY; which is registering Fjord horses for the posterity of the Fjord breed in general. All that is necessary is the DNA. __._,_.___ Your email settings: Individual Email|Traditional Change settings via the Web<http://groups.yahoo.com/group/FjordIssues/join;_ylc=X3oDMTJmdmF0djFyBF9TA zk3NDc2NTkwBGdycElkAzkxMjY0NDcEZ3Jwc3BJZAMxNzA3NDY0MzEyBHNlYwNmdHIEc2xrA3N0bm dzBHN0aW1lAzEzMzEwNTA3NDg-> (Yahoo!
