Otterhound Club of America
The Otterhound Club of America was founded in 1960. OHCA
is a member club of the American Kennel Club, and is recognized
by the AKC as the official parent club of the Otterhound
in the United States. All OHCA members agree to abide by
a Code of Ethical Conduct. The Club publishes a bi-monthly
newsletter for its membership and has held a
National Specialty every year since 1981, which "floats"
to different parts of the country. The 2006 Specialty was
held in Monroe Michigan in September. The 2007 Specialty
will be held in Pleasanton, California in October.
The OHCA also sponsors a Regional Specialty in Louisville Kentucky
every March, and occasionally supports entries at other shows.
