TWHBEA International Board Of

Directors Meeting

The Tennessee Walking Horse Breeders’ And
Exhibitors’ Association held it’s International Board
of Directors meeting on December 2, 2016 in
Lewisburg, Tennessee at TWHBEA headquarters. Out
going President Steve Smith addressed the board about
the challenges of 2016 and for the year ahead. But under
his leadership the economic condition of TWHBEA has
stabilized and improved.

During 2016 focus was placed on reducing cost. A
$12,000 savings annually was made with a new phone
system, internet upgrades and new lease for postage
equipment. New revenue sources are being sought, such as
leasing a portion of the building.

Registrations are down from October, 2015 to October,
2016 by 323, while transfers for the same dates are down
by 290. Incoming President, David Williams stated “as of
the meeting date the number of mares filed on the 2016
stallions reports were up by 1.5%. The top 100 stallions
by number of mares bred had a double digit percentage
increase. The top five stallions had a 30% increase, top 10
had a 23% increase, top 20 a 20% increase, top 50 a 16%
increase and top 100 stallions by number of mares bred had
a 13% increase over 2015.”

The 2017 proposed budget is based on the assumptions:
5,000 members, 2,250 registrations and 4,023 transfers.
Careful consideration was given to trends and three-year
averages in each area and their respective correlation
between stallion breeding report statistics. The association
adopted proposed rate changes, the first since 1998.

The election of officers are as follows:

President – David Williams
Senior Vice President – Charles Gleghorn
Breeders/Futurity – Carrie Benedict
Owners/Exhibitors/International – Keegan Meadows
Marketing – Ashley Wadsworth
Admin/Fiscal/Audit – Nancy Lynn Greene
Performance Horse – Ford Gates
Trainng/Equine Welfare – Stephen B. Smith
Pleasure Horse – Margo Urad
Bylaws/Enforcement – Robin Webb
Youth – Allison Thorson
Secretary – James (Jim) Heiting

Allison Thorson was nominated from the floor, all others
were selected by the nominating committee.

4 SIMPLE DON’TS

©Michael Gomez 3Don’t Think That Because Your Mare is Teasing
That She is Ready To Breed – Mares are hormonal
creatures. I have had mares to be teasing hussies all
through their pregnancies while we also have experienced
mares that never show any outward signs of heat and
refuse a stallion but are very ready to breed. A good
vet with an ultrasound can be a very helpful part of the
process. A mare only gets pregnant if she is inseminated
as close to ovulation as possible. If you breed her today
while she is teasing and you quit breeding after a couple
of days you’ll never be sure of an ovulation without a vet
confirmation by ultrasound. We have mares that show signs
of heat are bred one day and ovulated the next. We also
have mares that show signs of heat for a couple of weeks
straight and are bred every other day until ovulated. The
key word is OVULATED! When she has been inseminated
and ovulated your countdown is on until she can be ultra-
sounded at 16 days for pregnancy.

4Don’t Assume Your Mare is Perfect and She Gets
In Foal ALWAYS on the first Breeding – Mares can
carry uterine infection and you would never know it. If
your Vet says she looks clean but doesn’t culture her to
be sure, you should not pay for that opinion. If I stress
anything, it is to make sure you CULTURE your mare
for any infection that may keep her from getting in foal.
A Clean Culture is worth 10 times what you pay for it to
eliminate headaches down the line. Also mares can be low
on a hormone called progesterone that helps maintain
the early embryo and keeps her from coming back into
heat even though you have a conception. You can’t really
tell if she is low until you have a visible pregnancy and
many times you can’t get a visible pregnancy if she is
low. This is the Catch 22 of breeding. We recommend
a progesterone supplement such as Regumate 5-7 days
post ovulation to cover her if she is low and until she can
be ultra-sounded for pregnancy at 16 days post ovulation.
This is basically insurance. When she is determined to
have a pregnancy at 16 days a blood sample can be
pulled to determine what her progesterone level is. If your
vet says it’s a 5 or above she is pretty safe anything lower
than a 5 can gradually increase her risk of losing this early
embryo and we recommend that you leave her on the
progesterone supplement another 30 days and then take
another blood level test to determine if she can be taken
off the supplement. These two things are very important,
