On January 8, 2026, DSANA will post on its website the “Farmers’ Guide to the North American Udder Assessment System for Dairy Sheep,“ written by Bee Tolman, Johanne Cameron, and Dr. Andrea Mongini. This will be the full farmers’ guide for the udder assessment and scoring system that was introduced by Bee Tolman at the November 2025 Virtual Dairy Sheep Symposium. (The recording of that presentation can be accessed here.)

On Monday, January 12, at 4:00 PM EST, DSANA will host a webinar with Bee Tolman and Dr. Andrea Mongini to answer any questions people might have after reading through the guide or listening to the November presentation. There will also be further information on assessing udder traits for potential flock sires. This webinar is open to all (members and non-members of DSANA), and only requires registration below. A Zoom link will be emailed to all registrants on the morning of the webinar.
