So... I've been trying to research into my horse; Herbie's past again to see if I can go beyond where I hit a dead-end the last time. Anywho, does anyone understand the Zangersheide registry and how it works? From what I can gather it's merely a registry but not an actual breed? Does anyone possibly know which is true?I can't see to get much information from the registry itself because you have to join and when you join you have to pay right away and almost $100 isn't quite worth it when I've seen other people posting that they haven't been able to use the site much anyways when they have joined.

From what I could research it's a sportshorse warmblood grouping - so typically that's less of a breed and more of a registry.

It *might( be similar to CBHI horses, in that multiple breeds can partake in CBHI, but they have to be registered and tracked to do so?

I know its wikipedia but this explains it the way its been explained to me as someone living in the UK in that it is both a breed and a studbook which is relatively select in the horses that are accepted https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zangersheide

@Mame - I did see that and that's where I was confused, so it is a real breed but the stud book also accepts other warmblood breeds and if accepted they're considered Zangersheides too?
