We are in the midst of unprecedented and uncertain times with the spread of the Covid-19 virus. Taking all this into consideration, the Board has decided to not require clubs to hold an ASFA field trial in 2020 in order to maintain their status with the ASFA. See ASFA Constitution Article II Section 4. Termination of Membership. Each club can individually decide whether they wish to hold their field trials.

  • The Australian Shepherd
    The Australian Shepherd My Favorite AKC Dog Breed: By Kiera Geeleher My Favorite AKC Dog Breed If I could choose any AKC pure-breed dog, I would choose the Australian Shepherd. I have no dogs, but I wish I did. My whole life I have wanted a dog, my favorite dog is the Australian Shepherd. I love the look of Australian Shepherds, my favorite things about them are their light blue and dark brown eyes, and the mixed colors of their coats. Along with this, I love their loving and energetic personality. The type of Australian Shepherd I would want. Looks and Features of the Australian Shepherd Australian Shepherds weigh around 40-65 pounds and are around 18-23 inches tall. Australian Shepherds are usually longer than they are tall, but only by a little bit. Their coats are medium length and can be straight and wavy. The colors of their coat can be black, red, red merle, and blue merle. As the dog gets older the Merles tend to get darker. The Australian Shepherd sheds year round, but extra in the spring because they shed their winter coat off. Different Coat Types of Australian Shepherds Care for the Australian Shepherd Australian Shepherds are part of the herding dog group. They are very intelligent and require a lot of exercise. They should have at least half an hour to an hour of stimulating activities and exercise a day. For example throwing a ball or frisbee, going for a run or hike, dog puzzles and other stimulating activities and exercises. You can also give your Australian Shepherd a job such as herding, agility trials, and dock diving .
