Need help with hardshipping in Germany

[Farina]

Hello,

I need help with hardshipping a gelding with AMHA in Germany / Europe. I understand that the horse has to be inspected. Do anyone know when there will be a director at a european show/clinic to inspect my gelding?

Thanks for your help.

I am pretty sure that you can't- the hardship book closed unofficially to except horses on the American continent, as far as I know.

Hi,

You wont be able to hardship your horse if its in Europe, they stopped it in 2007, a pain i know , i wanted to hardship a mare before the books close also...and as i have said before we pay FULL membershipin Europe but do not get all the services.... not really right

No, that certainly ISN'T right.

What should the difference be if the horses are inspected before the paperwork is passed...same as here in North America?

Anyone here have a valid reason for this besides the obvious..."It was voted on and passed".

There are a lot of speculative reasons, but I do know that a lot of Minis were being hard shipped and I do not think it sat well with people trying to sell imported stock.....

That would be a very poor, crooked and downright mean reason, if it were found to be true.

I do not think this is speculation- I had thought that it was common knowledge.

One day we could hardship fine, no problem, the next it was "suspended"

When I e-mailed to query when it would be started again I was told it was under consideration.

I never saw it brought up at the yearly meeting, I never heard any more about it and the next I knew it had been stopped.
