Frequently Asked Questions
How do I get started?
Complete the Foxtrot Urbane Enrollment Form for your horse, and complete the membership form for the handler/rider and submit with payment to Foxtrot Urbane. Enrollment and membership in the program is one year from the time of enrollment and membership.
Do I have to be a member?
Yes, you must be a Foxtrot Urbane member in order to participate in the program and for your credits to count. Your membership will allow you to accumulate credits on ANY Fox Trotter horse that has an active enrollment with Foxtrot Urbane.
What if I let my Horse’s Enrollment expire?
Not a problem, you can re-enroll your horse and begin accumulating credits at any time, however no credits will be retroactive while your horse’s enrollment was not active. Once the horse becomes inactive, it will be considered retired. Credits and divisions will stay with the retired horse. If the horse comes out of retirement and enrolls again, it will pick up where it left off when its enrollment expired. Credits and divisions will only be accumulated with an active enrollment, and rider/handler must have a current membership. Remember, if your horse previously had credits and divisions, those will still be recognized.
Does my horse have to be registered with the MFTHBA?
Yes, all equines must be registered in order to participate. This includes the MFTHBA Pony Registry.
Do I have to have my own Missouri Fox Trotter in order to participate?
No, you do not have to own the Missouri Fox Trotter(s) that you use, however the horse owner is the one that will be receiving the awards. Horse owners will be verified through the MFTHBA.
Can I log points on more than one Missouri Fox Trotter?

Now, through Fox Trot Urbane, I will have a permanent record of his accomplishments. For those of us who love challenges, this will be like the cherry on top. I believe through Fox Trot Urbane’s program the rest of the equine world will see the Missouri Fox Trotter for what he is, a talented, versatile horse able to successfully compete with other breeds, and then take us comfortably and smoothly down the trail.”
“I have always felt that there is no limit to what our Fox Trotters can accomplish. They are truly an exceptional horse with athletic qualities that surpass any other gaited breed. My husband and I have had the honor to compete in MFTHBA performance and versatility divisions, and then go outside the breed box by entering and successfully competing alongside non gaited horses. We have shown off our Fox Trotters successfully at Reined Cow Horse events, Ranch Sorting, Hunter Jumper, Extreme Cowboy Events, Carriage Driving, America’s Favorite Trail Horse, Classical and USEF Western Dressage competitions.
Foxtrot Urbane has embraced the greatness of the Missouri Fox Trotter! This organization will provide our horses with resumes in the form of educational transcripts, that document the diverse accomplishments that our horses have been able to achieve. The Foxtrot Urbane transcripts will add value to our horses by documenting their training experience through the competitions and events that they take part in. Foxtrot Urbane will continue to challenge us all to seek out new events to showcase our exceptional breed and in this process, promote the Missouri Fox Trotter to people who never knew that gaited horses could do – what the Fox Trotter can.”
