Hello...
I have just acquired a new ned with little previous history. He has a very unusual freeze mark on the crest of his neck on the right side. It begins DK then has several numbers after it. It is alledged this horsey came over 'on the boat' from holland. Any ideas?
 
from horsedata - the only reference to DK brands, but not usually on the neck

Danish Warmblood Society (DV)

Tel: +45 86 109088
The Danish Warmblood brand, the crown over the wave, is carried by the offspring of graded

parents only. For every single horse, there is an internationally recognised pedigree

(Horse passport), which is an absolute guarantee of origin and identity. Foals out of two Danish Warmblood graded parents are branded with the Danish crown on the left thigh;for further identification purposes since the mid 1980s three digits reflecting the last three figures of the foal's registration number have also been included in the brand directly underneath the crown. Foals/horses with a Danish heritage which are unable to qualify on their pedigree/breeding for the DV brand are sometimes branded with the DK brand
 
Hi I know your post was a while ago but I was wondering if u ever found anything out about the branding as my trotter has the same DK and numbers on his neck thanks x
