SHOW RING CODE OF ETHICS
This code of ethics applies to anyone exhibiting animals at livestock
shows in the United States. It includes Junior as well as open class
exhibitors who compete in structured classes of competition. All classes
of livestock offered at the livestock event are included; Cattle, (Beef and
Dairy), Goats, (Angora, Boer, dairy, meat, cashmere), Equine, (Donkey,
Horses, Mules) Llamas and other specialty animals, Poultry, Rabbits,
Sheep, Swine, and any other livestock classes offered. This "Show Ring
Code of Ethics" will be enhanced with additional rules and regulations
which individual fairs and livestock shows impose on the local, county,
state, regional, and national levels.
The following practices or procedures are unacceptable and are defined
as being deceptive, fraudulent, unethical, and inhumane in the care,
fitting, preparation and showing of all classes of livestock. The use of
any illegal drugs is prohibited. Legal or illegal substances used to phenol
typically alter the appearance of an animal entered in livestock events is
prohibited (see rule #4). Use of illegal drugs is considered a
premeditated act!
Furthermore, any information obtained in the practice of illegal
alteration of an animal will be turned over to the proper authorities for
criminal prosecution. THIS IS A ONE STRIKE AND YOU ARE OUT POLICY!
Exhibitor will forfeit any premium, awards, or auction proceeds, and will
be prohibited from further competition at shows in the United States, as
well as being subject to criminal prosecution if proven guilty.
The following is a listing of guidelines all exhibitors must follow to enter
livestock at organized competitive events:
1. All exhibitors must have viable proof (Junior division) of ownership
available to prove length of time animals have been owned. Market
animals (Beef, Sheep, Swine, Goats) must be owned and under
exhibitors daily care according to established rules and regulations for
the fair or livestock exposition. This also includes all small market
animals (rabbits and poultry). The official ownership date is the date
shown on the bill of sale, unless the animal was bred by the exhibitor, in
which calving or birth records must be shown. (Local rules may
determine ownership requirements for non-market animals).
Registered breeding livestock must show the exhibitor as the sole owner
of the animal on the breed association papers or certificates.
2. No exhibitor may show an animal which has been previously sold at
an auction or sale as a market animal through another fair, livestock
show, whether or not there is an actual change of ownership
(progressive level shows excluded). Any method used to misrepresent
the age of an animal for a class in which it is shown is deceptive and
considered illegal. Showing an animal for another individual by claiming
ownership in order to show in a specific livestock class or event is
prohibited. False ownership is illegal.
3. Junior exhibitors are expected to feed, water, care for bedding,
cleaning and groom their animals while at the fair or livestock show.
(Individual consideration will be given in extenuating circumstances.)
Adults will not be allowed to physically assist in the preparation of the
animal while at the show. Verbal instruction will be allowed, but no
physical assistance is permitted. Physical assistance may be rendered
by other junior aged members in good standing in 4-H and FFA
programs.
Any violations of this rule may result in immediate
disqualification from the show.
4. Treating an animal internally or externally, with any irritant, counterirritant, or other substance used to artificially change the conformation
or appearance of an animal for show is considered unethical, inhumane,
and is prohibited. This includes, but is not limited to the use of graphite,
powders, hemp, artificial hair coloring, common products such as fly
spray, ointment or liniment used to the point that it is irritating, (unless
required to reduce edema at time of calving) or similar type products.
The use of dyes, spray paint or other artificial coloring which result in
altering an animal’s true and natural appearance and/or color is
prohibited. Adding false hair or hair-like material, fleece or skin at any
point, spot or area of the animal’s body is illegal and will result in
immediate disqualification. Any liquid or substance not considered part
of an accepted and normal diet for livestock is deemed illegal and
inhumane. For example: the use of alcoholic or carbonated beverages
as a drench or filler, etc.
5. The use of tranquilizers, sedatives, or depressants which alter the
physical or physiological state of the animal is illegal. Exceptions to this
rule would be a licensed, certified veterinarian's treatment for a
recognized disease or injury, or recommendation for tranquilizing
breeding animals in heat that might compromise the safety of others.
The drugs must be approved by The Food and Drug Administration for
use in meat producing animals. All exhibitors shall advise show
management of any drugs and/or medications administered to an
animal that might be detected at the time of showing or at meat
inspection. The name of the drug, its purpose, the person who
administered the drug, time and date of administration shall be
presented to show management prior to the showing and sale of the
animal. Failure to report this information to the show management will
result in severe penalty and/or disqualification. Any use of drugs or
substances not approved by the Food and Drug Administration is
strictly prohibited. All animals entered into livestock competition shall
be subject to testing for foreign substances that exceed acceptable
levels established by the FDA, FSIS, USDA, or EPA. During the livestock
events, in the case of animals requiring treatment, all medications shall
be administered by a licensed veterinarian and the livestock
superintendent shall be notified.
6. Surgery, injection or insertion of foreign material OR AIR under the
skin and/or into the flesh of an animal to change the natural contour,
conformation or appearance of an animal’s body is illegal. This includes
vegetable oil, silicon or any other substance used to alter the shape of
the animal. Acceptable practices of physical preparation which are
allowed include, clipping of hair, trimming of hooves, de-horning, or
removal of ancillary teats.
7. The balancing of the udder by abnormal means that includes the use
of a mechanical contrivance or the injection of fluid or drugs, setting the
teats and/or occluding (sealing the ends) with a mechanical contrivance
or with the use of a chemical preparation is illegal. Treating or
massaging the udder or its attachments with an irritant or counterirritant is prohibited.
8. The use of inhumane fitting, showing and/or handling practices or
devices shall not be tolerated. For example, breaking of tails, striking of
the animal to cause swelling or for bracing purposes, use of an electrical
contrivance, or use of overly severe bits is not acceptable.
9. Direct criticism or interference with the judge, show management,
other exhibitors, breed representatives or show officials before, during,
or after the competitive event is prohibited.
10. At the time an animal is sold at auction at the livestock show, the
exhibitor shall be held directly responsible for animals that are rejected
at a processing center due to the presence of foreign residues. The seller
may be liable to the buyer for an amount equal to three times the
Page 10
purchased price and may also be liable for attorney’s fees and civil
penalties. Show Management may share acceptable intelligence and
evidence information with FDA and USDA. If for any reason, any part of
a meat animal carcass must be removed by the FDA or USDA inspectors,
the market price will be discounted.
11. Show management reserves the right to require animal health
certificates. Health inspections and diagnostic tests may be made
before or after animals are on the livestock show premises for exhibitor
and animal safety, or to regulate disease control procedures which may
become necessary in emergencies as determined by animal health
officials.
Any violation of "The Show Ring Code of Ethics" or specific rules as
designated by individual fairs and livestock shows will result in forfeiture
of premiums and awards, disqualification, and may result in
probationary status and/or loss of eligibility for future participation in
organized livestock competition. Possible civil penalties may be
imposed by the proper authorities based on evidence provided by the
livestock show of exhibitors in violation of the Federal Food, Drug and
Cosmetic act/or the animal mistreatment, neglect, and abandonment
laws that apply on the local, state, and national levels. The decision of
the livestock show management will be final. Other cooperating shows,
(The International Association of Fairs and Expositions, The American
Livestock Show and Rodeo Managers Association, and Western Fairs
Association) will be notified of the action taken by the show
management, which may affect the eligibility of the individual, group, or
sponsoring organization for participation at other shows who are also
members of these organizations.
By making entry in this livestock show or event you are verifying you
have read The Show Ring Code of Ethics and understand the
consequences of and penalties involved for illegal, unethical, inhumane,
and unfair practices of competition. You also verify that you and your
family may be prohibited from future participation in organized fairs and
livestock shows in the United States, and could face possible criminal
prosecution and/or civil penalties if implicated in any of the
aforementioned acts.

following consequences which will occur:
If a superintendent deems there's a violation in rules on cleanliness and/or general care for livestock, the superintendent will place a red tag on the
pen. Exhibitors are to rectify the outstanding problems immediately, but not later than three hours after the red tag notification is placed on the
pen.
I further agree to clean my pen (s) and feed and water my livestock prior to 10 a.m. each day of the fair. I further agree to clean my pen (s) as
necessary throughout the day, and feed and water my livestock by 7 p.m. each day. Definition of clean pen:
