Unless animals are entered in the Catalogue and on a signed entry form they will not be allowed in the Show Important notice to Animal Owners who are involved in Showing their animals regarding Insurance. The Irish Shows Association would advise all Animal owners who have their Animals Insured to have the Insurance cover extended to cover them while showing animals at Shows. We understand that it cost very little or nothing at all depending on who you have Insurance cover with. If you are one of the few who don’t have cover we would advise that you think about putting it in place for this purpose it may be well worthwhile. The reason for us giving this advice is to protect yourself in the event of your animal lashing out and injuring someone or damaging someone’s property, if that were to happen and it is established that your animal was out of your control you may be held responsible, or partly responsible for any injury or damage caused and end up paying all or part of any settlement reached All Numbers must be attached to animals before Judging; if not No Prize Money will be awarded. Shows and Sales 2008 Information for Exhibitors The testing requirements laid down for Shows and Sales are intended to protect the health of your animals at the Show. You can take further steps to ensure that your animals are not exposed to any disease risk by: - moving animals directly from farm to show site; - disinfecting the vehicle used to transport your animals before loading; - insisting that all steps necessary to protect your animals are taken by the Show Committee. - You should contact your local D.V.O. as soon as you decide to exhibit at any show. This will ensure that all required documentation is in order before the date of the show.
