The FL Pan-Handlers ASC, INC. is incorporated as a not for profit club. We are an
affiliate club of ASCA (Australian Shepherd Club of America) which allow membership
and competition for all breeds of dog as well as mix breed.
ASCA allows us to offer agility, rally and obedience to all breeds pure as well
as the mix breed. We have an End of Year Agility award that is open to all breeds
that compete in our agility trials. Please check out our End of Year Agility link
for the Rules and Form for 2011. ASCA also allows us to offer conformation (breed)
shows for only Australian Shepherds registered with ASCA. We have hosted two Stock
trials. (We hope to offer ASCA tracking in the future this will be open to all breeds.)

For Upcoming Events please click on the link for Upcoming Events above. We currently
host ASCA All-Breed Agility, Rally and Obedience, plus Australian Shepherd Conformation
in Baker, FL. three times a year the last weekend in January, the weekend before
Memorial weekend, and the last weekend in October. If you have questions please
email questions to the club at flpanhandlersasc2@yahoo.com.
We had a small start with only 11 members when the club organized in February of
2002. We have grown greatly in number since that time with members owning and competing
with various breeds of dog. The majority of our members reside in the Florida Panhandle
but we have members in Alabama, Georgia and Central Florida. Currently we host ASCA
Conformation Shows, ASCA Obedience Trials, ASCA Agility Trials and ASCA Rally Trials.
We hosted our first Stock Dog Trial October 21 & 22, 2006 in Quincy FL. We hope
to offer Stock Trials again in the future.
We hold several training clinics for our members throughout the year and many "fun
days" activities at various members' homes and the Baker Arena in Baker, Florida.
We try to meet the needs and desires of our membership.
