Veterinary Examination
A clinical examination of the stallion is a pre-requisite, to be received prior to licensing. X-rays are also a pre-requisite and must be carried out according to FN protocals and will be reviewed by the Verband veterinarian prior to licensing.
WFFS Laboratory results are mandatory for licensing and will be recorded if the stallion is licensed. If you have any questions, please contact HHSA using the form below or email the Registrar Hanoverian@hanoverian.org.au
