Re: [RC] did AHA give in or did they have no choice - Becky Huffman----- Original Message ----- There seems to be more than one Arabian registry. They also seem to have a different philosophy of what "purebred" means. yes yes and yes. (!) in many registries in the past, a horse was admited to the purebred books when they reached a certain high percent of Desert Blood, and matched type, produced type - whatever the local criteria was. In the early days, many of the registries made agreements to accept each others purebreeds without realizing the difference in definitions. ... seems silly in hindsight, - but again, does not necessarily affect the quality of the animals today. 'Purebred' is according to your local registries' standard. how many of you remember and/or notice that the AHA claim of 'tracing in all lines to desert source' disappeared from their propaganda several years ago? Their definition of 'purebred' is a horse that is descended from horses registered in their registry.
