Registration Requirements

The horse should have an easily recognizable Appaloosa coat pattern, or test positive for the LP gene, but solid lp/lp  horses are welcome.
 

The horse should have white sclera surrounding the iris of the eyes, mottled skin (most noticeable around the eyes, muzzle, sheath/udder and under the tail), and Appaloosa striped hooves on legs without white leg markings, or test positive for the LP gene.
 

Height must be at least 14 hands high, standing barefoot, at five years of age. 

A horse’s sire and dam must both be registered with the ICAA, ApHC, ApHCC, or another Appaloosa registry approved by the ICAA  unless gelded or spayed.
 

All horses must have a negative 6-Panel test result for genetic diseases, or both parents must be verified as negative per the ICAA rules.  This requirement varies somewhat for geldings.  

All stallions and mares must have a DNA Profile (ISAG+) on file with Animal Genetics (AGI).
