Most all of the Horse Associations are requiring new foals to be DNA tested. I know The Quarter Horse Association and The Arabian Society have required this for quite some time. Before that, it was blood testing. You cannot register a new foal without this test. I think the AKC is slowing leaning toward this procedure and it's good they do. It does not cost anymore than having a Vet come out and draw blood.

DNA testing has been used in the racing industry and horse breeding for years. Its used to confirm paternity, and to judge genetic compatibility between potential parents.

here in Ireland - if a horse doesnt have its breeding recorded on its passport it is possible to do DNA testing - but you need to know who the horses parents are - blood samples etc are taken, and then matched to the horses you claim to be their parents.

Actually, as the technology becomes more affordable, more breeders in the race horse business are starting to use it to confirm "sire" rights.
