Tri-County Australian Shepherd
Working Association
TCASWA is an affiliate of the Australian Shepherd Club of America (ASCA) drawing members from San Diego, Riverside and Los Angeles Counties. Although primarily dedicated to the development of Australian Shepherds and their working abilities, all breeds are welcome to join the club and can fully participate in all club activities. Membership in ASCA is not required.
Our club typically holds three herding trials per year and at least one clinic. We hold tracking trials when sufficient participants are interested. The herding trials are usually held in late October/early November, early January, and May to early June.
This club is well known for its friendly and helpful members who are in all stages of development from National Champions to beginners. Members are also heavily involved in other dog-related activities such as agility, obedience, confirmation, tracking, therapy, etc. and freely aid fellow members (and guests) in these other areas.

Current events: 1. Our normal November trial has been cancelled this year as it is so close to Nationals. 2. Our next trial will be January 17-18 at Cal Poly Riverside. We will be offering a farm trial Saturday with one judge. On Sunday we will offer a dual arena with ducks or geese, sheep and cattle with two judges. Entries open on December 12, 2008 and close on January 5, 2009. Check back for flyer and entry forms. 3. We will have a club work day January 10th starting around 9 AM to prepare for the trial. 4. Our usual club meetings are at the Temecula Sizzler with members arriving around 5:30 PM for Dutch-treat dinner. The meetings typically start around 6:00. Walk-in guests and potential new members are always welcome to attend the meetings and need not come for dinner. |
