The following Show Rule is posted here for your convenience, due to many questions recently, regarding sanctioning of AOP classes and New Breeds:

ARRANGEMENT OF CLASSES AND MAKING OF AWARDS
1. The order of the show should be clearly stated in the show's rules submitted to ADGA for sanctioning. If it is not, the order in which the breeds are presented to ADGA for sanctioning will be considered the order of the show. When multiple sanctions are offered, a complete schedule of judging order will be provided. ADGA Official Shows may sanction classes for the following breed divisions.

a. Alpine    b. Lamancha    c. Nubian    d. Oberhasli    e. Saanen    f. Sable
g. Toggenburg    h. Nigerian Dwarf    i. All Other Purebred    j. Recorded Grade

2. If the A.O.P. breed division, 1.i. is applied for, no more than six breed divisions of 1.a. through 1.h. may be sanctioned. All animals of the purebred breed divisions not separately sanctioned must be permitted to show in it.
