About the P.R.E.

You have seen them in movies and probably didn't even know what they were; just that they were the most beautiful horses you have ever seen. They have long flowing manes and tails, come in all colors but are mostly gray or white, and have been bred for centuries to bond with, understand and relate to humans with timeless generosity and nobility.

They were the horses that were reserved for use by kings, queens, and elite government officials to make them look impressive and important. When you ride one you immediately get the sensation that you are royalty while their smooth regular gaits remind you of sitting on your favorite couch. In fact they are so special you should not look at them for very long without the protection of sunglasses! They look like a dream, they ride like a dream, they act like a dream and you will never want to wake up. Just being near them is a thrill. (OK, now you understand how much we really love these horses).

P.R.E. Horses can be registered in the P.R.E. Mundial Registry (through The Foundation for the Pure Spanish Horse) or in the Spanish Stud Book in Spain or both.   Each will provide a carta insuring the horses' lineage and authenticity as documentation of the horse's registration.  A P.R.E. horse has to pass a physical inspection and genetic testing when it is a foal to receive its carta in either registry.  This process is called Inscription and is usually done when the foal is still nursing from its dam. When the horse reaches adulthood, a minimum of three years old, it is examined again for minimum size, quality, transmissible faults and breed fidelity. When it passes this approval it is said to be revised, or approved  for breeding or reproduction purposes.
