Preserving and Promoting Andalusians and Lusitanos and their Crosses
The International Andalusian & Lusitano Horse Association (IALHA) is an organization of owners and breeders of Andalusian and Lusitano Horses and their derivatives. We maintain a registry for purebred and half-bred Andalusians and Lusitanos, and Spanish/Portuguese (S/P) horses.
IALHA holds true to the long and glorious history of these magnificent breeds and acknowledge the original bloodlines from Spain and Portugal. We are a member association and provide shows for competition and to promote these horses’ unique qualities to the world.
