Kansas Foundation
Quarter Horse Registry Affiliate, Inc.
 |
KFQHRA has a Division called "Non-Member/Non-Breed".
This Division is available for any non-members and/or
any breed at each of the 1-Day Promotional Shows. This
Division is included in every event held. KFQHRA wants
to extend an invitation to any non-member/non-breed to
participate in any of the 1-Day Promotional Shows.
Bring your family, your friends, and your horses, and
spend a day with KFQHRA. |
The purpose of the
Foundation Quarter Horse Registry
(FQHR) is to preserve and protect the working cow horse bloodlines.
The Registry recognizes those first 27,000 horses registered by
the American Quarter Horse Association. True Foundation
Quarter Horses carry at least75% Foundation blood with no
registered Thoroughbred closer than the 4th generation.
Keeping and preserving the bloodlines is, and will continue to
be, the goal of the Registry.
The FQHR was founded by people who
believe that the more Quarter Horse blood a horse carries, the more
Quarter Horse traits it will exhibit. Those traits include a high
degree of intelligence, a calm, quiet, kind and willing disposition, and
a heavily muscled body with a low center of gravity carried on sound bone and
feet.
A little about the Kansas Affiliate.....
The Kansas Foundation Quarter Horse
Registry Affiliate (KFQHRA) was begun in Salina on March 1st, 1998 by
twelve dedicated foundation horse owners. By 2005 membership had grown
to over 600 members. Membership includes horse owners, breeders and
exhibitors from across Kansas, over a dozen other states and Canada.
Throughout the year KFQHRA conducts one day promotional shows across
Kansas with a four day show and Breeder s Showcase in Salina. The four
day show has grown from less than 200 entries to nearly 800 entries. All
shows are designed to support the FQHR vision in a competitive yet fun
family atmosphere. Other KFQHRA events have included clinics on breeding
programs, horsemanship, showmanship, cutting and cattle handling
techniques. |
