Can I double register a quarter horse and paint?
admin on March 13th, 2010
I am breeding my AQHA horse with a APHA stud and I was wondering if I could double register tha foal as a quarter horse and paint?
It is possible for a horse to be dual registered with AQHA and APHA. You’d have to check the rules and your horses‘ papers to see if your horse qualifies or not. I have a registered Paint and he is qualified to be registered as an Appendix QH as well.
you should be able too.
but contact someone from both registries just to be sure.

Yes you should be able to. I know there are requirements, and you should contact the registries, but i know for a fact that it is possible, I do PtHA shows and a big breeder in the area goes as well Diann Watson, eagle point ranch, she triple registers almost all of her babies AQHA , APHA, and PtHA. you could email her and ask her what you have to do.

yes you can

Nope…. a quarter horse has to be bred to a quarter horse or can be bred to a Thoroughbred to make a registered quarter horse. But if it has a certain amount of white on it when it comes out you can register it as a quarter horse and a paint….

Only if the APHA stud was already double registered, or if you are willing (if the stud is even eligible) to do the homework and get him double registered. AQHA has recently opened up its registry to horses that came from both AQHA parents but had too much white under the rules at the time to be allowed into the AQHA registry, so they were registered APHA. Currently, that horse would not be allowed into APHA. To register APHA the horse must have at least one APHA parent, and color. AQHA will only register horses with 2 AQHA parents or 1 AQHA parent and 1 TB parent. APHA will register only a horse from 2 APHA parents, or 1 APHA parent and either a AQHA or TB for the other parent.
I am waiting on a breeder who owns a 1/2 brother to my gelding to get the stud that is the sire to both of them registered with AQHA. My horse has this APHA sire, and a AQHA dam. If the stud is granted double registry, then my horse would also be eligible for AQHA registry.

yes u can. A paint has to have parents of APHA, AQHA, or Jockey Club. so u should be able to if both horses are purebred.

Only if the Paint is also registered AQHA. And I believe that the Quarter Horse needs to be listed with APHA to register the offspring as a Paint, as well. You’ll definitely want to check into this before you go through with the breeding.

If the horse comes out a breeding stock and the APHA is reg, AQHA too, you could, Aqha s not registering any more reqular colored paints

The foal CANNOT be double registered. Because your horse is a Quarter Horse and you are breeding her to an APHA stud, you can only register the foal with the APHA. With the AQHA you can only register QHxQH or QHxThoroughbred.

absolutly not, all you are doing is cheapening the breed and like a dog breeding a mutt

The rules have changed for AQHA and APHA in the last few years, so some of your posters are not giving you correct information.
First, to have a registered AQHA horse your horse must have either both parents registered AQHA, or one AQHA and one registered Thoroughbred (Will go in the appendix registry of AQHA then)
To have a registered APHA horse you must have either both horses registered APHA, or one registered APHA and the other registered either AQHA or Thoroughbred.
So with the senario you gave us the foal CAN be registered APHA, whether it’s solid coloured (will go in the Solid Paint Bred part of the APHA registrey) or Paint coloured (then will be in the regular registry of APHA)
For the foal to qualify as AQHA the APHA stallion must be double registered, otherwise the foal will not be a Quarter horse (remember, I mentioned both parents must be AQHA for the foal to be AQHA) Someone mentioned they show with people who double register their horses – but this is how it’s been done. Years ago AQHA refused horses with full AQHA parentage if they had too much white. Those horses were then registered with APHA. Now that the white rules have changed in AQHA, people with those specific horses (the ones that had two AQHA parents, but too much white) can apply and get their mature horse registered as AQHA. They don’t loose their APHA registration. There is a fee for doing so, but you must prove that each and every horse in their ancestory is a registered Quarter horse, you cannot have any Paints that don’t go back to full-blood Quarter horses. So there now is a number of horses out there that have this double registry, and anytime you breed to them you have the option of double registering your foals.
If this is important to you, then you need to ask the breeder if his APHA stallion is double registered. If he isn’t, than any resulting foals from him will only be able to be registered as Paints.
Clear as mud? Go onto APHA online and you can get his info yourself.
