    Only if the Oldenburg stallion is within the top discipline-dependant range for the performance or sire rankings of the WBFSH

    OR

    the Oldenburg stallion is a top young stallion that has not yet met the full approval requirements (e.g., a winner of a 30-day test, but has not yet met the follow on performance and/or full testing requirements).

    That sounds like encouragement to me and I just thought it would be smart to do that "intelligently"; however, feel free to be dependent or independent with or without intelligence.

    mare owners have always decided for themselves, and the Verband can only control the stallion direction--which they use to improve the mare base and to move it in a particular direction.

    without snippy comments, this post could be more useful to some who would like to become better informed on current developments.

    Diane - you made me laugh!
    I'm expecting that the Verband and AHS will have a few queries this coming year or two as to whether a stallion falls within guidelines.
