Zangersheide Stud & Breeding Association
Established in Lanaken (Belgium) by Leon Melchior at the beginning of the seventies, which later developed into a studfarm. In 1992, Studbook Zangersheide Zangersheide launched a dedicated studbook for breeding showjumping horses!
Zangersheide focused on the breeding of showjumping horses. Zangersheide realised that in a world where changes follow each other in quick succession, emerging unexpectedly and always from a different direction, Zangersheide would never make it with just knowledge derived from practical experience alone. Because Zangersheide wanted to book progress in the showjumping horse breeding world they recruited the best scientists in horse genetics and with their aid developed highly advanced reproduction techniques.

STUDBOOK ZANGERSHEIDE
About 15 years ago Zangersheide noticed that there was a need for an open studbook that concentrates its breeding efforts on the sport of showjumping and not any specific horse breed type. A studbook that is open for change and development, which devotes itself to improve "the showjumping horse" in all kinds of areas. Something had to be done to bring breeding and the sport closer together! So Studbook Zangersheide was born in 1992. A studbook that manages to create surplus value for its breeders and opens a world-wide market for their products. Also a studbook that tries all ways to "upgrade" the showjumping horse by means of techniques such as AI and ET, which Zangersheidere both developed at Zangersheide, and performs research, still going on, to drive out OCD.
In a world where borders are virtually disappeared Studbook Zangersheide allows you to profit from this globalization that has also reached horse breeding. The open policies of the studbook and the unique services it offers will guarantee that the best genetic material from anywhere in the world is made available to you. Your products are brought to the attention world-wide through Z-Magazine published in four languages. From our headquarters in the center of the of Europe the supremacy of Zangersheide products is conquering the world market.
