Regional Clubs associated with the STCA may choose to host one or more Specialty Breed Shows each year.  Each club has the responsibility for picking the judging panel and completing the necessary paperwork to hold an AKC-sanctioned event.

Click on the Regional Specialty Schedule link above for a listing of specialty shows that have been approved for this year.  Information will only be posted to this page once the show has been approved by the STCA and the application has been accepted by the AKC.  The schedule page also has links to show results. We will post show results as soon as the information is received from the club's Event Secretary.  The STCA will make every effort to post information as quickly as possible; however, accuracy will be emphasized over speed.  Official sources such as the Event Secretary or the AKC will be our primary source.

In approximately 1990, the STCA Board of Directors organized the Regional Scottish Terrier Clubs into four regional groups.  The objective was to provide a mechanism for sharing the privilege of hosting a national specialty among all of the affiliated clubs.  Since 1991 the annual National Rotating Specialty has been rotated among these four regional groups, with each club in the region having an equal opportunity to host the specialty. 

The current list of regional groups and the STCs in each group is shown below.

The annual Montgomery County Kennel Club (MCKC) dog show is certainly a Special Event in the mind of many Scottie fanciers.  Sanctioned by the AKC as an All-Terrier (versus an All-Breed) Show this event is attended by people from all over the United States as well as many countries around the world.

The STCA sponsors a series of events over the entire Montgomery County weekend that help make this an awesome weekend.  The official STCA Information Packet published each summer provides information on area hotels, maps to the various show sites and the latest schedule of events.
