FOAL REGISTRATIONS

All foals need to be microchipped before registration.

Please ensure that the microchip barcode sticker is affixed to the registration application in the space provided below the silhouette, below the pony's name and sex.

All registration applications should be submitted to the office as soon as possible. Any applications received in December will be subject to a double fee.

Deadlines for Breeders

· The current Equine Identification regulations require the applications for foal passports to arrive with the Society within 6 months of birth or 30 November whichever is the later. However in addition to the above, FPS regulations require applications to be received by no later than 31 December (irrespective of age) or the application will be treated as late and will require late registration fees and confirmation of the sire and dam by DNA. Double fees may also apply if applications are received during December.

· Service Books / notifications of coverings online must be notified by 31 December in the year of covering; if not, any resulting foal will have to be DNA typed to confirm the sire prior to registration.

When completing stallion service certificates please complete all the details fully, including full name and registration number of stallion and mare and full dates of covering to include at least month and year. Month on its own with no year is unacceptable. 3 April 2021

FPS STALLION LICENSING (updated 10 August 2020)

The FPS Council have agreed that it will be compulsory for a colt/stallion to be FIS tested before a Stallion License can be issued. The FIS test fee may be refunded once the first progeny are registered, subject to the test having been purchased through the FPS; contact the Secretary for more details.

Colts are eligible from two years old, after 1 January of their second year. The applicant must be the recorded owner of the pony. Stallion licensing form

The Owner must supply the FPS Secretary with the contact details of a veterinary surgeon (name, address and email). An Examination and Report Form is sent by the Secretary to the vet together with a letter, which is copied to the colt's owner; the owner will also receive the DNA and FIS kit for the vet's use. NB If an FIS test is done through another lab then proof will be required – either sight of the certificate, or confirmation from the relevant laboratory - that the pony has been tested. A letter will also be required from the vet who took the sample, confirming that the identity/microchip of the pony was also checked.

The owner makes arrangements with the vet for the inspection, after which, if the colt has passed, the DNA/FIS samples are taken. The form on the sampling back should be completed by the vet and the samples forwarded by the vet, to the lab or the FPS, as instructed.

The passport should be made available at the onset of the inspection as the identity of the pony should be checked and confirmed by the vet, by scanning the microchip.

The cost of the vet's inspection is borne by the colt's owner.

The vet returns the Veterinary Report Form to the Secretary. The licence is issued when the DNA and FIS testing confirmation is received and the passport and records updated by the FPS.

A COLT WHICH PASSES THE EXAMINATION MAY NOT BE USED FOR STUD PURPOSES UNTIL THE LICENCE IS ISSUED.

If the colt fails the inspection or a licence cannot be issued then a part refund of the fees may be due.

Stallion service books or online service certificates must be returned to the Secretary by 31 December in the year of covering: Fell Pony Society, Bank House, Boroughgate, Appleby, Cumbria CA16 6XF.
