1 Boodskap van die President Nuusbrief Die Suid Afrikaanse Miniatuur Perd Telers Genootskap Dec 2013 Geseënde Kersfees Why do you enter something, is it just to see a result? Hoekom is die wen so belangrik? Is it a system of being important? As telers wens ek dat ons nooit die genot mag verloor van daardie plesier wanneer die volmaakte vulletjie gebore word nie. Daardie bevrediging wanneer daardie pasgebore vulletjie uiteindelik arriveer en jy nie kan wag om te interveer nie, wanneer jy so graag wil help en net wil sien watter kleur is die nuweling, daardie beentjie optel om die geslag te sien. Vergeet 'n oomblik van konformasie en geniet die oomblik, die volmaaktheid van die skepping. Onthou weereens dat dit is waarom jy teel, om oomblikke soos hierdie te ervaar. Ek het lank gelede 'n gesegde gehoor : Whinnying is everything and not winning! Passports - The status We all await with interest developments within the equine community regarding Equine passports. The SAMHBS is required to comply with, and implement legislation and requirements from show holding bodies. It is however important that people realize we are not the Passport police. Due to the state of flux and the unpreparedness and arrears at SAEF, shows held are making concessions where breeders need either show a valid Passport or a Registration certificate and a letter from a veterinarian stating that horses are inoculated and listing the batch nr of the vaccine used. Horses are required to be inoculated against AHS and Equine flu. Ek het ook die voorreg om 'n ouma te geword het en glo vir my. Oumasindroom het hewiglik sy kop by my uitgesteek. Sy is die slimste, mooiste, oulikste en dierbaarste ding wat ooit gebore is. So ook ons perde, ons almal ly in 'n meerdere of mindere mate aan stable-blindness. Maar dit is reg so, ons moet dink ons perde is die beste en die mooiste.dit is deel van die lekkerte van perde teel maar GUN ANDER OOK HULLE PLEK IN DIE SON! Haal jou rooskleurige brille af wanneer jy na jou eie perde kyk en sit hulle op wanneer jy na jou mede-telers se perde kyk. Ons is 'n familie, 'n perde-familie wat soveel meer kan bereik wanneer ons almal saamtrek na 'n gemeenskaplike belang, die bevordering van die Suid Afrikaanse miniatuurperd. Help mekaar, ondersteun mekaar en motiveer mekaar. Soek die positiewe in jou vriend se perde en vertel hom hoe goed hy doen. Some people wait for their chance, others take it. Wees een van die kansgrypers lê op sy rug maar is nog nie verby nie. Eindig 2013 sterk! Remember One reason why birds and horses are happy is because they are not trying to impress other birds and horses. Geseënde Kerstyd vir julle almal. Mag God vir julle goed wees en gryp 2014 met albei hande styf vas en leef voluit! AHS & FLU Vaccinations - Rule Amendments AHS vaccinations Foals are to be vaccinated after the foal is 3 months of age and before 30 June of the year following its birth. Yearlings are to be vaccinated between 1 July and 31 December with a gap of at least 3 months after the foal vaccinations. hereafter, annually between 1 July and 31 December. It would be fine, for example, to vaccinate a horse in July this year and only in December the following year. Flu vaccination Foals need a primary course of 2 vaccinations given 4-6 weeks apart once the foal is 6 months of age and before 31 July of the year following its birth. Thereafter at intervals not exceeding 6 months. Mares and stallions shall be vaccinated at intervals not exceeding 12 months.

2 Misty Meadows - Feedback A week after SAMHBS Nationals in Pretoria a Regional show was held at Misty Meadows outside Pretoria. The SA Championships were hosted by SASA and we were pleased to participate. There were 33 horses from 13 studs and the jumping and utility classes were particularly well attended. This show was marked by the very positive atmosphere and good cheer exhibited by all. It was truly a happy event. Thanks to SASA and Misty Meadows for including us and to Greg Goss for judging. We still believe that Miniatures do not get the exposure they warrant at shows and we are determined to strive for better arenas and showing times. We are acknowledged at some shows as crowd pleasers and we strive to earn this accolade where ever we show. The Champion Stallion was OMH Rockies Firefly and Reserve Champ was Hart E Deago. The Supreme Champion Mare was MMC Your Lizzy and Reserve was Sugarlands Options Aplenty. The Supreme Champion Miniature was OMH Rockys Firefly and the Reserve Champion was MMC Your Lizzy.

The quality of the jumping continues to improve and the dedication and enthusiasm of the group of people who are putting this event on the map make it a pleasure to participate. The event was again sponsored by Equipage. A parade of Horses of the world was held prior to the main jumping event which was attended by a record crowd and Hart E Miniatures represented the breed in this event.

It was a regional show in the Eastern Cape and held in conjunction with Cape Boerperd, American Saddlers and Welch ponies. 30 horses competed and 8 breeders were represented at a very successful event. There is no reason why this show will not grow in numbers and become one of the premium events on the Miniature horse calendar. Thanks to Ezelle Marais for putting this horse show on the map.

Daar is besluit om ons Kampioenskappe elke jaar te roteer na n ander streek sodat die koste van skou en die mense wat kan bywoon beter versprei kan wees.

4 Nationals Bloemfontein 2014 Die datum vir die Nationale kampioenskappe in Bloemfontein is 2de en 3de Mei by die skougronde in Bloemfontein. Die vraag word gereeld gevra hoekom ons nie ons Nationale kampioenskappe elke jaar dieselfde tyd hou nie. Daar is besluit om ons Kampioenskappe elke jaar te roteer na n ander streek sodat die koste van skou en die mense wat kan bywoon beter versprei kan wees. Die Nationale skou is n groot geleentheid en n Skou moet dus gekies word wat die geleentheid sal kan regverdig. Die skoue in die provinsies vind nie dieselfde tyd van die jaar plaas nie en dus word ons Kampioenskappe gehou wanneer die skoue in die verskeie streke gehou word. Daar is wel voordele aan die sisteem. Omdat die skoue nie dieselfde tyd van die jaar is nie word ander perde vertoon. Skoue wat in Mei gehou word trek meer inskrywings in die merrie en vul klasse. Skoue in die lente trek weer jong diere omdat telers nie hulle swaar dragtige merries en vullens wil vervoer nie. Skoue bly belangrik. Dit bied n platform waar die gehalte van teelperde gemeet word teen n voorafbepaalde teel standaard soos deur die genootskap vasgestel. Dit meet prestasie en gee leiding aan lede oor watter diere en meer belangrik watter tipe diere die ras vorentoe vat. Dit gee n aanduiding van wat suksesvol werk en ook erkenning aan die telers wie se perde sukses behaal. Die benutting van Mini perde raak al hoe meer populer en die nie-teelklasse is vir die eerste keer ooit beter bygewoon deur beide lede en die breë publiek. Dit is belangrik vir die genootskap om die gewildheid van Miniatuurperde te bevorder. Dit skep n mark vir reunperde en groei die genootskap se ledelys. Baie lede en meer perde bou n gesonde genootskap, en dit is wat ons nastreef. Skoue is ook die beste en goedkoopste vertoonvenster vir ons ras en dus werk ons hard om meer gereeld streeks skoue aan te bied. Skou reëls en beoordelaars van gehalte, saam met ons ras se teelstandaard, bly die hoeksteen van skoue wat regverdig, betekenisvol, en n plesier is vir die publiek en lede om by te woon. Die genootskap poog om die standaarte van al ons skoue hoog te hou en volgens die reëls en erkende praktyke aan te bied. Die miniatuur perde word ook as ras ernstiger opgeneem en ons skou nou gereeld by groot perde skoue saam met ander rasse. Dit bring meer mense in aanraking met ons ras en skep n mark vir ons perde. Breed Shows are where we measure the quality of breed stock for perpetuating the horses chosen by the judges according to a breed standard determined by the SAMHBS in order to record achievement and to guide future breeding and select the genetics that perform.

Per Capita Lists Die Genootskap vra dat alle telers ons by staan en die Stamboek per kapita lyste noukeurig nagaan om seker te maak dat al die perde wat op die lyste is daar moet wees en ook om seker te maak dat al die perde wat julle in jule stoet geregestreer will he daar reflekteer. Dit is belangrik dat hierdie lyste korrek is en ons kan net verseker hulle is akuraat met die bystand en hulp van die telers self. Onthou in die nabeie toekoms gaan ons skou inskrywing ook op LOGIX doen en perde wat nie daar volledig gereflekteer word nie sal nie deur LOGIX kan inskryf nie.

Why Belong to a Breed Society Whether to register our horses or not in these tough financial times is a question often asked. What do we gain what do we lose? How do we as breeders benefit?

6 Why Belong to a Breed Society Whether to register our horses or not in these tough financial times is a question often asked. What do we gain what do we lose? How do we as breeders benefit? A breed Society provides a structure from which a breed operates. How good the breed Society is often provides the answer to how healthy a Breed is in a particular geographical area. This frame work provides two main things. A. STRUCTURE - A Constitution, A breed Standard, Show rules and administration that is functional and provides security to members who wish to hang their hats on the stand provided for a breed. Breed Societies maintain and manage the various structures that sustain this structure. They are required to this fairly, diligently and without exception. This is necessary for the good governance of the organisation as well as to maintain and protect the functionality of the breed itself. B. SERVICE AND ADMINISTRATION. A group of people who stand together in a common cause in the interest of promoting the same interest need their cause to be administered in order to extract value from the exercise. A breed Society provides a service and structure to its members in this regard. The administration in this regards pertains to the implementation and sustaining the documents that uphold its structure. It further assists to promote the breed jointly in order to assure its continued growth. It measures the progeny from various breeders by providing a showing platform. Most importantly it performs the function of administering the recordal and registration that make up that breeds genetic material. This genetic material is the life blood of a breed and its right to continued survival. It takes people to perform these functions and they are elected at an AGM. If you don't make an input at an AGM as to who must drive your breed society your voice may not be heard. If you don't raise key issues at an AGM these issues may go unheeded. The people who are elected need money to execute their tasks and functions. Thus the fee structure. A well run, functional Breed Society produces the paper by which our animals are recorded and which enhances their value. It ensures the accuracy and structures that validate this paper and by which what we as breeders claim is recognised as accurate. We stand together as breeders, and pursue a common coarse in the interest of our registered horses. We are not Miniature breeders if we are not members and the horses we breed are not registered. We cannot claim the credibility our society lends the breed and the protection and uniformity its structure enforces. When we sell unregistered horses as Miniature Horses they are not Miniature Horses and the people that buy them have no assurances to the claims made when they are marketed. There is a difference between a South African Miniature Horse and a similar small animal that meets the broad size and confirmation descriptions. There is a difference between a registered breeder and a producer of random small horses that lay claim to be part of the breed. That difference is registration and the right to breed this special breed and claim the naming right of the progeny bred as part of the breed. Yes it costs money, but the money spent ads to the inherent value of the horse and to the security and various benefits the breeder gains by belonging to the Breed Society.

8 Confirmation in a Nutshell Report on the visit by AMHA to SA The President of the AMHA, Mr Jim Birkenklau accompanied by an equine consultant and senior judge, Mr Wayne Hipsley and Jennifer Carlson recently visited South Africa where they were welcomed by our President Coralezet Erasmus and met with members of our SAMHBS and various breeders. The purpose of the visit was to strengthen bonds between the two breed Societies and initiate cooperation. They visited 10 + studs where they scrutinized SA horses and their progeny and fielded questions sharing extensive knowledge and expertise very constructively. They also met with Studbook and the secretariat which left them impressed with the quality of our recordal systems and administration. The AMHA and SAMHBS are looking to cooperate re the promotion of Miniature Horses in SA, shows and judging, breeding programs, and the dissemination of information amongst other things. Thank you to those members that extended warm South African hospitality and assisted in making this trip possible and especially to Paul Couzyn and Tertius Le Roux who travelled countrywide with our visitors. The SA Miniature was acknowledged as a separate independent breed in its own right originating from a separate and diverse genetic pool. We thank our American visitors for their time and a very pleasant and constructive visit.

9 CEM CEM testing remains a compulsory test on all registered stallions and a requirement to register foals. We note that the numbers of registrations are down on other years in spite of the fact that the numbers of mares have increased. Other breeds are also experiencing this phenomenon. This matter has been taken up by breed societies as a whole with Department of vetinary Science. The responses and progress is slow and the outcome uncertain. We request members to continue reporting the birth of their foals to the society and in the hope of a positive outcome they will have the benefits of registration. DNA Both paternal and maternal DNA is now a requirement for the registration of a foal. This requirement has been implemented over a period of years starting with the DNA of stallions being a requirement and later introducing the DNA of mares. This gives certainty as to the genetic makeup of a foal and is important in giving buyers of horses the comfort of knowing what they are procuring. More importantly it adds value to our registration papers and ultimately to the value of our horses. If foal recordals are not accompanied by DNA results from a recognised lab then the registration will become pending and will not be completed till the required results are received. There are three laboratories from which the results are recognised. 1.

Die proses werk as volg: Die lede log in op Logix en gaan na data opname- geboortekennisgewing - Geboortekennisgewing ( perde.) - Die teler gaan sy besonderhede na soos op stelsel en begin die geboorte document invul. Die teler kan die nodige stawende dokumente soos dek sertfikaat en DNS uitslae aanheg en stuur. Die genootskap en die teler sal dan outomaties 'n e-pos ontvang dat die geboorte ingestuur is. Die genootskap weet dan om op die perdegenootskap geboorte redigering skerm te kyk en die transaksie kan daar beskou en ge-redigeer word. Die genootskap kan ook dokumente aanheg en deurstuur na stamboek. Ons glo hierdie fasiliteite gaan die papierwerk minder maak en die omkeertyd versnel. Help asseblief om hierdie fasiliteit te toets en dit te gebruik. Julle kan enige tyd vir Herman Labuschagne of Philna kontak as julle onseker is oor iets.
