We are pleased that you inquired about the Australian Shepherd and ASCA®, parent club for this wonderful breed. On this site you will find general information about the breed and ASCA®. We are very proud of this breed and our club made up of dedicated Aussie fanciers.

The Australian Shepherd Club of America (ASCA®) was established as the parent club for the breed in 1957 and incorporated as a non-profit corporation. Increasing interest in competition led to the development of merit programs.

These programs today provide certification and titles in Stockdog, Conformation, Obedience, Tracking, and Agility as well as recognition to the top Juniors. These programs increased ASCA®'s role as a service organization to much more than a registry. ASCA®-registered Aussies can earn titles in every phase of competition as well as entry into ASCA®'s Hall of Fame which is reserved for outstanding sires, dams, and kennels. ASCA® has over 100 Affiliate Clubs internationally providing sanctioned shows and trials for ASCA® registered Aussies.   Click here to find out more about ASCA Membership
