Brandenburg

I am looking for contact information for the Brandenburg association. My mare has a passport and a Brandenburg brand but no official papers. Of course, the previous owners have no real information of her history in Germany. The breeder was Kurt Treger and Media Horses GbR.

I am interested in breeding my mare and figured true papers would really be helpful.

Thanks

First of all, if she has a passport, she should have a Registry number. If you contact the Registry in Germany, they will probably be able to tell you what you have to do in order to register her as a broodmare. You will probably have to join a registry. Don’t know if you want to stay with Brandenburg, of switch to another Registry.
That their contact.

Thanks, for the info! Are you familiar with the registry?

no, but if you need help with any translations I can help you.

I am not sure what the Brandenburg passport looks like, but if it is anything like the Oldenburg passport, it is “official papers”.

Does it have your horse’s life number, foaling date and location, breeder name, pedigree, color and markings, etc.? If so, that is all you need if you want to get your mare approved for breeding by one of the WB registries operating in NA (and I assume you are in NA).

Also - Brandeburg doesn’t have a presence outside of Germany, so if you are looking to breed your mare for a registered foal, you will have to get her approved into another registry, and register the foal with that registry.

I have a Brandenburg (gelding.) This is what his papers look like… hope that helps.

Yes, I was thinking I would need to get her approved by a NA operating registries. The passport has all her “information” but I don’t think it’s the “official” paperwork.

Just curious - is your Brandburg paperwork multi page, in a binder? Does it include his pedigree, etc.?

My Oldenburg passports are multi page, and contained in a vinyl cover.

As mentioned above, my Oldenburg passports are multi-page, and include everything needed to ID my horses - life number, microchip number, foaling date, breeder name and location, pedigree (including stud book assignments of the sires and dams), written description (color, markings, whorls) as well as drawings depicting markings and whorls, etc. There are also several pages where medications can be recorded. They ARE the official papers used by the breeding registries - nothing else is needed to get a mare approved for breeding.

The Verbands also issue Certificates of Ownership, which is a single piece of paper with brief ID info and pedigree, but these are not used much outside of Germany.

The intent is that the passport stays with the horse - ALWAYS - and the Certificate of Ownership stays with the owner.

Yes, that is just the cover of the paperwork. The interior pages have pedigree, breeder info, registry info etc.
