Oldenburg GOV No Longer Branding? |
Lead | ||
|
I have recently heard that the Oldenburg GOV is no longer branding because they feel it is cruel? Is this true? And can anyone tell me when the branding stopped?
Thank you! Deirdre Marr Dallas, TX |

Oldenburg NA/ISR won the right to the Oldenburg brand in the US in a lawsuit. So Oldenburg GOV cannot brand in the US.

The suit was over 10 years ago.

I didn't know that they weren't being branded. Is a new design being developed or is there no plan to brand anymore? I have not had an Oldenburg til now and was unaware of the brand status. Peg

The OHBS-GOV has been only microchipping for many years now in North America because of the legal issue already mentioned. They do not want to develop a separate brand, because it would be even more confusing since the original brand is still being used on horses bred in Germany. Many of these horses are then imported with that brand and are still registered with the OHBS-GOV. It's an unfortunate situation.
