In 1962 the first Danish Sporthorse Breed Society was founded, called Dansk Sportsheste Avlsforbund (DSA). By the end of the 70's DSA and another sport horse society, called Danmarks Lette Hesteavl, merged. During 1980 the new name of the merged associations was launched: Dansk Varmblod.

Back in 1962 where the mare studbook was established, 150 mares were entered. Only 22 of these were born in Denmark and they were primarily of Oldenburg pedigree. 108 of the mares were of German bloodlines. At that time no register was kept with performance results, but of course horses and riders who had winnings internationally, were noticed. Therefore Lis Hartel and her gelding, Jubilee, are still proudly remembered.

The brand, the Crown over the Wave, was drawn by I. C. Christensen and designed by the Georg Jensen sivler smithy in 1963. The logo symbolizes a kingdom surrounded by water.
