Arthayasa Horses receive KWPN passports
We are happy to share with you that all our young horses which we bred in Arthayasa have been now registered with KWPN (Royal Dutch Warmblood Studbook) and now received the original KWPN passports. We breed our horses by artificial insemination using the imported frozen semen from the best Dutch stallions. When the foals are born we need to send samples of their manes and tails to Holland for DNA analysis.

Here are the horses that received the KWPN passports: Laluna, Enya, Hidalgo, Classico, Blue Angel, Valentina, Princess Limo.
