Oh I take the "breed" seriously alright, and have done for 25 years, right from the time when I was accused of just having "clipped out Shetlands" to the present day.
A Morgan is recognisable as a Morgan.
And you cannot hardship anything into the Morgan book.
The Breed Standard of the AMHA was lifted almost verbatim form the The Shetland Pony breed standard of the SPSBS here in England, and it is , to my mind, nonsense, it could describe just about anything, but definitely describes a Pony, when the Mini is supposed to be a Horse.
I do not want to get controversial here but the whole thing IMO needs a good shake up!!
I also think that, generally speaking, the only "protest" needed would be that the rules already in place are not being enforced- that is the responsibility of the BOD and it is truly and fundamentally wrong if it is really not being seen to.
What is the point of having ANY rules if they are not going to be enforced??
