But worried about what it entails?
Our guide on showing sheep may reassure you that it is not as terrifying as it may seem.
On the show day itself, other Hebridean Sheep Society members will also be there and they will be willing to advise or lend of hand- we are a friendly bunch.
If you have further questions, about showing sheep, or anything else related to Hebridean sheep please get in touch.
