I have some questions about "sanctions". I understand that when a club puts on a show - they will have certain breeds "sanctioned" - but sometimes they accept other breeds also (lionheads being an example).
From what I understand - a "sanction" is basically registering the show with the National club for that breed - and the fee is fairly reasonable usually.
But in reading the information on the Duncan, OK show - they list the sanctioned breeds and then say that you can still earn legs/awards for the unsanctioned breeds and they're welcome too (or something like that).
What does sanctioning do for the rabbits you show?
For instance - many times flemish giants aren't sanctioned down here....so if I were to win - does that mean that the win doesn't count for the flemish giant club sweepstakes? Is that why I'd want to get the breed sanctioned for that show? (We can donate the money to do the sanctioning).
What about for grand championships, etc? If the show is ARBA registered/sanctioned...but the breed itself isn't sanctioned...what does that mean for the rabbits if they win legs?
