We are very proud of the versatility and quality of Airedale Terriers in our state ~ that, for some time, have ranked among the top twenty on the show circuit ~ and that our Florida breeders are continually striving to better the breed.
Agility and obedience are also events in which some of our skilled Airedale members partake. There are also wonderful service and therapy Airedales in Florida, whose priceless role is to aid persons who are confined to residency in nursing homes & rehabilitation facilities.
The Airedale Terrier Club of Florida (ATCF) fully supports the goals and efforts of our state's rescue club, Sunshine Airedalers of Florida, Inc. - which has done an outstanding job rescuing and re-homing Airedales in Florida. ATCF, and our members, assist with Airedale rescue efforts in any manner that may be needed.
As the majority of Airedales owned by our club's members are pets, owners have expressed a desire to participate in educational and social activities encompassing "the complete Airedale".
With some Floridians having over 30 years' involvement with Airedales, we have a great mentor resource to help our members regarding all aspects of owning an Airedale.
Our club also has an appointed Public Educational Coordinator whose role is to help educate those who are new to the breed, and a Breeder Referral Contact who will support the ATCF'S standard of breeder's responsibilities - ensuring that prospective puppy buyers obtain their dog from a reputable breeder that adheres to that standard.

The Airedale Terrier Club of Florida was formed in 2006 by a small group of Airedale Terrier enthusiasts who wanted to promote interest in our wonderful breed of choice, and to encourage good sportsmanship and fellowship among the owners, breeders, and exhibitors of Airedale Terriers.

Our club ~ now celebrating its 4th year ~ has a planned schedule of gatherings and events throughout each year including grooming, obedience, conformation, Canine-Good-Citizen testing, agility and therapy work. The versatility of our breed allows us to organize an interesting and fun schedule of events and programs.
