VICKI! :o) I signed the petition today and I am number 760!!!!!!!! That is a lot of signitures! :o) I'm so behind in most of the posts that are going on....
In recent months AQHA, under the exceptionally brave and forthright leadership of President Steve Stevens and the Executive Committee has taken a bold stand in...
Hello everyone, I am new here, and know not much about HYPP. But I just discovered that the mare I am leasing may have it, and am currently working on getting...
There's someone in Texas that is trying to come up with a semen extender that would kill the H sperm, but that still leaves the positive mares passing on H's. ...
The extender would be of no use to those who want to continue breeding HyPP in their horses. Passing rulings are the only way HyPP will be stopped. The only...
Of course not. But this doesn't have anything to do with people that want to continue breeding HYPP in their horses. It is for the people that DON'T want it....
There are a lot of stallion and mare owners who have NH horses who also do not want hypp. Some of these people like me cant afford to go out and buy other...
I understand your question. I think it may be a costly process to do it with mares, more so than the extender for the stallions. I also think it may run the...
I truly do understand your position Robin. The petitions are allowing time for you to replace your stock. The breeders who have positive stallions AND positive...

Yep, it seemed like it would be expensive. The thing is though, alot of people have great mares they want to breed that are HYPP NH. And the extender wouldn't...
Wow! I was not aware that that was the story! I have a daughter of his who is N/N that I bought from Char O Lot when he was here in Florida (lucky me only paid...
... That case was lost for two reasons. The first was because they allowed one or two people to do it and would not let others. The second was because the AQHA...
It would seem that if it can be detected in semen, it should also be detectable in an embryo. I hope your test comes back negative on your mare. But...
... I have to disagree with this statement. There are a LOT of people who currently own NH and a few who own HH (or have lost them due to the disease) who are...

Restriction of trade was only part of it. The judge told AQHA that if they could prove it was detrimental to their health, he would have ruled in their favor....
I think that she is referring to HERDA. It's a disease that they are researching now that causes the skin to lose elasticity as a colt/filly grows. Usually by...
Boy it doesnt sound good. It must just be awful for a horse to suffer with it. I never heard of it before. But we only deal with halter horse bloodlines. Robin...
Thanks Nancy for the info on this new inherited problem. Its sad to still hear people that have HYPP N/H stallions standing at stud without advertising their...

Can someone point me to a web site for information concerning studies of testing of potassium levels in horses that possibly died of HyPP? I heard there may be...
It is known as the Doc O Lena syndrome, also known as HERDA or Hyperelastosis cutis. It is a recessive gene so can seem to skip generations. The skin splits...
I have been reading this thread with interest. There seems to be some people grasping at this ray of hope for the positive stallions. It possibly could save...
