Horse genealogy/database program ?

Hi list,

My dentist likes horses (I guess dentists earn enough money to be able
to have expensive hobbies like Horses!). 
He likes to keep track of thousands of horses, he writes by hand in a
paper database, what horse's sperm was used to give birth to horse A B
C D E... So it's a kind of "genealogy" database.
That's an awful lot of paper sheets to deal with, so he would
like to find a software to handle this ever growing database on a
computer, for convenience. He said he failed to find a software (under
Windows I presume) to handle such a specialised database.
It would be cool if I could find something, even cooler if it ran on
Linux of course ! ;-)
That would be a great opportunity to spread the Linux word :-)

Using the word "horse", I searched for software in freshmeat,
sourceforge, gnomefiles and kde-apps.org, but failed to find something
designed for this purpose.

So, if anybody on this list is in the horse arena and knows/heared
about such a software (be it Windows or Linux based, free or not
free), I would be really interested to hear about it ! :-)

Regards,

Vince
