The passion for horses
remains for a lifetime

The HHSA is comprised of two World Breeding Federation of Sporthorses (WBFSH) approved studbooks: The Hanoverian studbook and the Rhineland Studbook. Both are Australian-based registries. This gives members greater options and value for their membership. Both studbooks adhere to their respective breeding guidelines and are steeped with tradition and rich history of producing quality performance horses in the Olympic disciplines.

Hanoverian Horses

Versatile, Elegant, and Athletic Equestrian Stars

Whether it is their beauty, intelligence, or their ability to excel in various equestrian disciplines, Hanoverians have certainly captured the hearts of many horse enthusiasts.

Many equestrians admire Hanoverians for their exceptional athleticism, elegance, and versatility. They are well proven in the sports of Dressage, Showjumping, and Eventing. Hanoverians also tend to have a gentle and willing nature, which makes them great partners for riders of all levels.
