In keeping with our vision of preserving Finnsheep worldwide through encouraging its use in today's growing markets, we have several registration options available.   Our traditional registry records purebred animals from all recognized registries worldwide; the IFR Breed Improvement Program allows for the addition of scrapie resistant genetics and our Recapture Program allows those with currently non-registered Finnsheep flocks to restore their flock's registration status.  All graduates of the IFR Breed Improvement and Recapture programs are elgible for purebred registration.

The IFR Mission Statement clearly outlines the IFR's committment to having its representatives work alongside breeders in a supportive manner.  We believe that by better supporting our members, they will be able to successfully produce, market and sell their Finnsheep products in an ever expanding marketplace.  By creating a demand for Finnsheep, the breed can be preserved for future generations.

Finnsheep are one of the world's most versatile production sheep breeds.  They are a necessary component of any farm that requires production and diverse quality wool products in an environmentally-friendly package.
