HISTORY

 

The Pasco Florida Kennel Club, Inc. was chartered February 1, 1979 but was started a number of years before by the efforts of a handful of dedicated people who shared a love of dogs, a drive to see their breed improved, and a goal to see the Pasco Club as a vital member of the AKC and the community.  Pasco Florida Kennel Club, Inc. is an IRS approved 501(c) 4 not-for-profit corporation.

Pasco Florida Kennel Club, Inc. is approved to hold AKC sanctioned Matches and shows. PFKC holds two AKC shows yearly and one AKC Sanctioned Match. These events will see a response of between 150-250 entries for matches to nearly 2,000 entries for shows.

In addition to members being active in the Breed ring, members are also active in Obedience, Agility, Junior and Senior Hunter, Master Hunter, Lure Coursing and Tracking events.

PFKC is an active community supporter and the members assist in rabies clinics, community events, educational workshops and therapy programs. Each year, PFKC donates 10% of their show profits to selected entities to benefit dog oriented programs, and was active, through its affiliate groups, in getting the Dade City ordinance changes from breed specific to vicious dog. As an active member of ADDA and FAKC as well as AKC, PFKC contributes in time of crisis, which effect animals such as Hurricane Andrew in South Florida and the Mid-West Floods of 1993.

PFKC has breeder referral.

 

The club meets on the fourth Tuesday of each month at the Land O' Lakes Community Center on HWY 41.  Note October and December’s meetings held at different location.  All are welcome.
