Iberian Horse Alliance Membership Requirements

Is your Horse or Pony of Iberian Decent?

The Iberian Horse Alliance is partnering with Etalon Equine Genetics for Horses and Ponies who are unsure of Iberian Heritage. Your horse must have a minimum of 25% Iberian horse genetic markers in their DNA test results to qualify for membership in the Iberian Horse Alliance.

If your Horse or Pony is not registered with one of the 60+ listed breeds you may submit your Etalon test results as proof of Iberian Heritage.

Etalon Equine Genetics

Our team is dedicated to providing exceptional service to our customers. We pride ourselves on our knowledge of the industry and our commitment to helping our customers find the perfect products and services for their needs.

Testing Method

 Our equine DNA testing requires an easy, non-invasive pulled mane or tail hair sample. All the genetic data is found in the root of your horse’s hair! 

Etalon Equine Genetics

Our Etalon Testing Partnership

The Iberian Horse Alliance has officially partnered with Etalon Equine Genetics to advance the knowledge of Iberian Horse & Pony breeds! Below is information on how you can identify your Iberian's health, color, performance & ancestry with Etalon Diagnostics' comprehensive equine DNA testing.

Your Iberian Horse or Pony does not have to be registered with the Iberian Horse Alliance to be tested and included in Etalon's Iberian Horse and Pony DNA databank. All Iberian Horses and Ponies are welcome regardless of registration status or owner membership status. 

What does Ancestry testing tell us?

This testing will help to determine if your Horse or Pony has Iberian Genetics.

If your Horse or Pony has a minimun of 25% Iberian breeds in their DNA makeup, they can be registered as an Iberian Horse Alliance "Open Iberian" breed.
