A dog show is an event in which many Dog Breeds of a particular kennel club meet to be judged. Many times when people say "dog show" they mean a Conformation event in which a judge evaluates a dog based on its adherence to an established breed standard. A dog's conformation is a term used to describe how closely the dog conforms to, or matches, the breed standard. A dog show may only feature Conformation judging, or performance based dog sports like Obedience, Rally or Agility.

It states:To be eligible to compete, a dog must:be individually registered with the American Kennel Clubbe 6 months of age or olderbe a breed for which classes are offered at a showmeet any eligibility requirements in the written standard for its breedSpayed or neutered dogs are not eligible to compete in conformation classes at a dog show, because the purpose of a dog show is to evaluate breeding stock.For aesthetic reasons neutered male dogs may be implanted with silicone testicles (e.g. Neutricles).Neutered dogs can participate in AKC shows in such performance events as Obedience, Agility, and Rally (sort of a cross between Obedience and Agility). They can not show in Conformation. There are also events for particular types of dogs--herding and tracking, for example--in which they can participate. Some cities have non-AKC, just-for-fun shows with categories like "furriest," "most kisses per minute," and so forth, and they do not care whether your dogs is neutered or not.
