The Kentucky Horse Council (KHC) has announced the formation of the Kentucky Breed & Discipline Council (KBDC). This council is a formal part of the KHC and consists of one representative from each equine breed association or equine discipline association in the Commonwealth. Associations that are members of the KHC will be represented on KBDC.
