Some model horse collectors, especially those who like to show their models, like to create a pedigree for their horses similar to those of "real" horses. Some make up fictitious sires and dams, while others use the names of other model horses. If you would like to use another collector's model horse as a sire or dam for one of your, be sure to get permission first!
If you're interested in the genetics of breeding and color assignments you should check out the International Pedigree Assignment and Bloodline Research Association. IPABRA was designed for those interested in pedigree assignment to promote education in color genetics, bloodlines, and breed types. The membership includes many friends from overseas. IPABRA offers a listserv, Bloodlines, a multiple page digital newsletter including articles of interest, a yearly pedigree auction, a tack library, a mail-in Halter point show train, a mail-in Performance point show train, an online point Halter show and an online point Performance show. Awards that can be won include gold and silver medallion status, supreme champion titles, ROMs and LOMs. They also provide championship titles and ranks for high-scoring sires and dams.
