Pedigree registrations must be carried out via our online animal register or by paper form which can be downloaded from our website. This has been instructed by the Department body whom we have met in recent months.

Forms can also be posted out to breeders if required. Over the phone registrations are not permitted. This is a Department of Agriculture rule which must be adhered to as they are our governing body.

When filling out the TH status of your animal, please check the status on the parent’s certificates to ensure accuracy.

Both MALE and FEMALE animals must be DNA’d from January 2024 (this is part of the society control checks when issuing Pedigree Certificates)

Reminder: All females born in 2018 or after must be genotyped before their first calf is registered. Please submit registrations as soon as possible to avoid late penalty fees. These registrations will be completed once DNA results are back to the office and in accordance with the queue in front of your registrations.

Please be mindful to register your animals on time as we only have one secretary and to avoid leaving registrations until the time of a club or society sale. Thank you.
