FAQ
 

I want to get my pony tested where do I start?

You can complete the application online or by paper application. The application requires the pony’s details; name, date of birth and UELN. 

The second part of the form requires the owner’s details. This is the person the sampling kit will be posted to.  There is certain criteria to adhere to proceed with the test.

  1. The pony you are testing must have a transponder. If no transponder is present you must complete a DNA comparison
  2. You must be the registered owner of the pony in order to proceed with the test. If you are not the registered owner you will be required to complete a transfer of ownership form

 

How long does it take to receive the results of a HWSD test?

Once the lab receives the sample, they endeavor to return the results in three to four weeks

I have completed my HWSD test privately can you stamp my pony’s passport?

To maintain the integrity of the studbook the CPBS can only recognise test results that we facilitate through Weatherbys Scientific.
