UKC National Breed Association Requirements
National Breed Associations hold the responsibility of being the guardians of their breed. It is a serious mission that should not be undertaken with frivolity. Forming a National Breed Association requires much deliberation, hard work, and exceptional organization.
National Breed Associations must have a clearly defined goal and a unified long term vision for the breed, its enthusiasts, and the Association itself. Members of a National Breed Association should be able to articulate the Associations purpose and should be proud members of the organization.
The requirements to become a National Breed Association endow an organization with dedication and breed experience, which will allow the organization to be a source of knowledge and insight to anyone looking for breed information.
We are honored the United Kennel Club has appointed the DUTCH SHEPHERD DOG CLUB OF AMERICA as the Provisional National Breed Association for the Dutch Shepherd (US-0123 CON NA). The DSDCA was originally approved as a Single Breed Provisional Conformation club in May 2012 and became a fully licensed Conformation Club in March 2014. We are now following the additional process required to achieve Full National Breed Club status as detailed below.
