DAIRY CATTLE CODE OF ETHICS
The showing of registered cattle is an important part of the promotion and development of their respective breeds and it plays
an important role in stimulating and sustaining interest in breeding registered cattle.
The Gatton Show Society believes it is in the best interest of the breeders of registered cattle to maintain a reputation of integrity
and to present a professional and progressive image in the show ring.
The Gatton Show Society further believes that cattle presented in the show ring should be presented in a natural, (normal
appearance), condition.
The Gatton Show Society recognises certain practices within the processes of showing cattle which are not acceptable.
THE FOLLOWING PRACTICES OR PROCEDURES ARE CONSIDERED UNACCEPTABLE AND ARE DEFINED AS BEING
FRAUDULENT AND / OR UNETHICAL IN THE SHOWING OF REGISTERED CATTLE.
1. Misrepresentation of the status of the animal in relation to the class in which it is shown.
2. Treating of animals internally or externally, with any irritant, counter-irritant 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:
a) Treating the animal, particularly the udder, internally or externally, with a
substance to artificially improve conformation.
b) Setting the teats or manipulating a teat to alter its normal position such as to
unnaturally hold it plumb or to alter its length.
c) Surgery or insertion of foreign matter under the skin, performed to change the
natural contour of appearance of the animal’s body.
d) Use of artificial hair except for false switches.
e) 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.
Show management reserves the right to require animal health certificates.
f) The hygienic sealing of teats to prevent infections will be permitted ONLY under Veterinary supervision.
3. Criticising or interfering with the judge, show management or other exhibitors and any other behaviour considered
unsportsmanlike while within the show ring or other conduct considered detrimental to the breed or show.
4. Exhibitors are expected to care for and groom their animals while at the show.
(Individual consideration will be given in extenuating circumstances.)
5. Challenging, threatening or interfering with an ethics or disciplinary committee appointed by The Gatton Show Society to
monitor the animals on exhibit at the show grounds.
Lodgement of a complaint under the DAIRY CATTLE CODE OF ETHICS by an exhibitor must be accompanied by a $50 fee.
