Showing Dairy Sheep

NADSA is offering the first official Dairy Sheep show in 2025! The show will be hosted at the Wisconsin Sheep & Wool Festival (September 5th). Those who want to compete in NADSA sanctioned shows must be a current paid member & exhibiting sheep that are registered with NADSA. Proof of current ownership will be required (sheep certificate). If you are traveling from out of state a Health Certificate is required to enter the grounds. You must provide your own feed, water buckets, shavings, clean your assigned stalls & bring your own milking supplies.

Dress code - White collared shirt, jeans & boots. (White pants are not required). 

​

Fitting Dairy Sheep - Sheep DO NOT need to be slick shorn for showing. The sheep should have trimmed hooves, bathed & clipped so they are tidy in appearance. The udder should be filled with milk, have a full but palatable udder & not be dripping milk (a milking hold should be done with any ewes before entering the show ring). Judges will inspect & palpate udders of ewes while in the show ring.
