We Are Moving!
To better Serve our Members, the Directors have approved a move to California from New Mexico. The building owned by The Foundation that has housed our offices for many years is in escrow with a closing date in mid-March. The movers are packing our files, historical documents, books, paintings, statuary, show material, exhibitions, and all the data we have collected for these 21 years. We expect to have our new offices set up and running in Southern California by the end of March.
In the meantime, you can still reach us at our established office number (505.294.0800) as well as through all the emails on our website for our Officers and Directors. We are also conducting business as usual through our computers. If you are ordering any of our merchandise, there will be a slight delay until we can unpack, but if you need the item for a special occasion, please let us know and we will make a special effort to get it to you on time!
Keep watching our website for our new address and photos of The Foundation ready to serve our Members and Friends of the Pure Spanish Horse.

Cría Caballar Exhibition
On February 9, the Cría Caballar Military Breeding Center of Éjica Held a Stallion Presentation for the 2019 Breeding Season.
The event, which was attended by more than 600 people, most of them breeders, consisted of an exhibition of horses in the barracks’ Courtyard of Arms, in which, for about an hour, stallions of different breeds were presented in hand, with antique carriages, and ridden by personnel of the Military Center. Students of the Employment Workshop “Moratalla” participated in the presentation of stallions at the Military Center for breeding of Écija.
The day continued with the visit of the personnel assisting in the stables where they could see up close the rest of the stallions and tour the collection of carriages of the Historical Heritage of the Ministry of Defense.
The public breeding locations of Cáceres, Andújar, Badajoz and Córdoba will reveal a total of forty-three stallions of different breeds (P.R.E., Rá, Aa, Ha, CDE, PSI, and asses) over the next 65 days, including the permanent public breeding location in the same barracks at La Doma. In 2018 the breeding locations deployed by this Military Center of Cría Caballar of Écija, covered about 1,200 mares.
Presiding over the event was Lieutenant Colonel Chief of the Center, D. Juan Manuel López Rodríguez, accompanied by the Colonel Delegate for the Defense of Andalusia, the Colonel Subdelegate of Defense of Córdoba, the Dean of the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine of Córdoba, as well as representatives of Breeder Associations.
