Programs & Services

Registration

Registration is the foundation of all breed improvement programs. Breed improvement benefits every breeder, as well as the breed. Accurate identification and complete pedigree information is a valuable asset in management, breeding and merchandising. Our programs are designed to make registration easier and more economical. Take advantage by getting all your registrations up-to-date. The RWDCA offers the lowest fees of any association. We strive to make your registration work as hassle-free as possible. Registration applications are available on our website or on request. Other accepted forms include calfhood DHI forms and computer generated ID forms. Standard identification requirements include one of the following methods: 1 photo, 2 sketches or eartag ID program.

REGISTRATION OF HOLSTEIN ASSOCIATION ANIMALS:

To make it easier for those who double-register their animals in both associations, the RWDCA will accept one of the following as an application: 1. HA certificate (will be returned with RWDCA registrations) or 2. Copy of front and back of HA certificate. It’s that simple, no application to complete, no additional sketches or photos, just send the original or copy of your Holstein certificate and we will record your animal in the RWDCA!
