July News

The summer is flying by! Central and Eastern Regionals are over and both shows had considerable increases in entries from last year. The results of these two Regional Shows are on the Regional Championship page. Pre-entries for the World Show are due August 11th to Laura Mullen. Check out the World Show page for forms and more information. Make sure your paperwork is in order - leases, owner transfers, temp to perms, and stallion changes must be done before you show. The office is busy transitioning to the new software system. We are getting caught up, but please be patient with us as we work hard to get your papers sent out. DNA kits are now being emailed directly from the lab at UC Davis. The sending email address is amha-kit-reply@vgl.ucdavis.edu Please put this email address in your contacts, so they don't get rejected or go to spam. If you need your kit mailed instead of emailed, please let us know when you order your kit. We are emailing membership and Amateur cards, so please add our email address, memberservices@amha.org to your email Contacts so our emails don't end up in your Junk/Spam folders. Remember, we do NOT need photos for Transfers unless the horse is also going Permanent or being registered for the first time. We hope you like the look of our new certificates. We have put a place for an Owner Transfer on the back, so you do not need to send us an Owner Transfer form. If you have any questions at all, please email memberservices@amha.org or info@amha.org

***WE ARE WORKING ON OUR NEW SHOW PROGRAM. UNTIL IT IS COMPLETED, WE ARE UNABLE TO POST LOCAL SHOW RESULTS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR PATIENCE AND UNDERSTANDING!***

YOUR CONNECTION TO THE MINIATURE HORSE COMMUNITY

Through our online STALLION, FARM, TRAINER and BUSINESS Listings!

My Mini & The Moon

Adding magic and meaning to Mini Horse and Therapy Horse homes everywhere with fantastical miniature horse costumes!

Three years ago they welcomed their miniature horse Trinket into their family and home. And as a theatrical costume maker it was natural for Kathy to begin crafting beautiful outfits for Trinket to wear during her therapy horse visits.

Kathy has also gotten to know the greater miniature horse community which is filled with wonderful big-hearted people. Over time she has been asked by many to sell her outfits. So... after many months of development and work she offered this store as a labor of love for all those deep-souled mini horse people. This is a place to have some fun with your mini horse and dress her/him up in something special, splendid or just plain silly!

Visit them online to see more beautifully crafted costumes!!
