9. Breeder’s Certificate: For each mare bred, a Breeder’s Certificate must be completed by the stallion owner. Don’t tamper with the signatures or dates of breeding, as this will necessitate a new Breeder’s Certificate being submitted. Breeder’s Certificates which have missing, incorrect or incomplete information will cause delay processing the registration. 

Just like AQHA, AQHYA maintains its own governing body of young members who are committed to giving back and making AQHYA the best it can be for youth members around the world. Elections for the 2019-2020 AQHYA Executive Committee and regional directors will take place throughout YES.

“My first show was quite the learning experience. My dad took me, and we learned so much from helpful people. I didn’t win a ribbon, but I knew that I loved the challenge of improving and making my horse and myself worthy of a ribbon. I’m glad I didn’t quit, as showing is a lot of work. However, the work and responsibility of horse ownership is good for children and for adults. It’s a great outlet for relaxing and stress release!”
