Eligibility to participate in an MDGA sanctioned live show requires that you be a current MDGA member.
1. An official TMGR registration certificate is required for any animal entered and shall be presented to the show secretary prior to the start of the show. An animal that is registered with TMGR on the day of the show must have a TMGR certificate present and the animal’s TMGR registration number must be recorded on the Show Report to qualify for a GCH leg. Miniature goats with an official MDGA registration certificate may show and be counted in the total animals shown, but may not record a win unless registered with TMGR within 10 days of the date of the show. If the animal is not registered with TMGR within the 10 day period following the show, the Reserve Champion will record the win if otherwise eligible. The show secretary will be responsible for assuring that each animal is accompanied by the proper TMGR registration certificate before the animal is shown.
2. In lieu of original registration certificates an officially validated faxed or electronic copy of the registration certificate from the Registrar shall be accepted by show officials.
3. Proof of ownership shall be the name on the official registration certificate, unless ownership has changed within 90 days of the show and a transfer of ownership form is presented with the certificate. In that case, ownership shall be the name on the transfer form. Transfer of ownership forms that are dated more than 90 days prior to the show date will not be honored as proof of ownership.
4. An animal may be judged in only one age class per show. Proof of birth date shall be the birth date on the animal’s official registration certificate.
5. The base date for computing the age of the animal shall be the day the animal is to be judged, unless otherwise stated by a Fair Board in its rules governing livestock. This date must be stated on the show application and in the rules.
6. Health certificates may be required if specified in the schedule of classes and official show rules. When health certificates are not required, the show officials shall see that all animals brought to the show grounds are in apparent good health and free from noticeable disease. Show officials may deny entry if animal does not appear in good health.
7. Any animal disqualified in its class will not be counted in the total number of animals shown for sanction purposes.
8. Animals are required to have a legible tattoo and/or microchip as a condition for recording a Grand or Reserve Grand Champion win. (Animals under 6 months of age are exempt from this rule.) Owner will be responsible for providing a microchip reader if animals are chipped.
9. There are no minimum or maximum age restrictions.
