Everyone is welcome to join our club!  You don't need to own an Aussie to join Northern Nevada Australian Shepherd Club (NNASC); the Australian Shepherd Club of America (ASCA), of which we're an affiliate, sanctions agility trials, tracking events, herding, fly ball, rally, and obedience trials in which any dog, including mixed breeds, can compete and earn titles.  If you do have an Aussie and it isn't registered with ASCA, chances are that it still can be, if it meets the Aussie conformation standard.  Otherwise, all you need is a tracking number from ASCA to have a record of your dog's performances.  The tracking number form is available on the ASCA forms webpage, which we have a link.

While NNASC does sanction several agility trials, conformation shows, rally, and obedience trials in northern Nevada, our club's emphasis is not on showing.  Our membership is comprised of people who like to do a wide variety of fun things with their dogs, including: hiking, practical obedience training, and just relaxing with their favorite couch potatoes.  The club usually meets on the last Tuesday of each month.  An effort is made to schedule meetings between Reno, Carson City, and Minden, so that members do not always have to drive a long distance.  During the summer, we sometimes have meetings on Saturdays, combined with agility, and/or obedience run-throughs. You are welcome to attend any of our meetings or events to check-out the club.

Thank you for your interest in the Northern Nevada Australian Shepherd Club.  We would very much appreciate your membership, and know that you and your dog(s) are going to have a lot of fun with us!
