Welcome to the official website of the American Haflinger Registry (AHR).This site is intended to provide information and answer questions on the beautiful and versatile Haflinger horse, North America's fastest growing horse breed. It also serves as a place where members of the registry can find forms and get updated information.

Planning on buying a Haflinger? Here are some first-time buyer tips to help make sure paperwork is in order Benefits of Membership
AHR participates in the USDF All breeds program. Participants must be current AHR members to receive Haflinger breed awards.	The World Haflinger Federation breed standard is the authority defining the characteristics of the Haflinger, including color, and states that significant white leg markings are discouraged and white body markings are not acceptable.  In short, there is no such thing as a spotted Haflinger. Crossbreds should be designated as such.
