Actually here in the US,,ASCA (australian shepherd club of america) has an "altered" class.
It started a couple of years ago for people who chose to alter their dogs but wanted to show. We can get Altered CH's on them thru ASCA, and they are judged based on breed standard, so it's not any easier to finish an altered dog vs intact.
I've been to a couple shows, and the classes while not "jammed", still have some good entries.
