 Foundation Ewe Application 

NOTE - You can also login to GLM Registry  to submit online form

Download the PDF form below to submit a ewe for Foundation status. Once approved, the Foundation ewe can be used to start new lines of Registered NAWSA Wensleydales bred via A.I. with UK registered semen. The breeder does not have to be the owner of the ewe but must furnish a copy of her registration papers with the application.   

 The non-Wensleydale ewes used in the first cross must be registered with one of the following U.S. breed associations. No other foundation breeds shall be recognized.  

• Cotswold - American Cotswold Record Association
• Cotswold Breeders Association, Black Cotswold Society
• Leicester Longwool - Leicester Longwool Sheep Breeders Association The NAWSA strongly discourages the use of Leicester Longwools due to their low population in the U.S.
• Lincoln - National Lincoln Sheep Breeders Association
