The Scottish Terrier Club of Tampa Bay (STCTB) was formed as a regional chapter of the Scottish Terrier Club of American (STCA) in 1987.  Although the founding members primarily resided in the Tampa Bay area of Florida, the club represents and serves Scottish Terrier owners and fans throughout the state of Florida.  


STCTB is the only Scottish Terrier breed club in Florida. 

STCTB is proud to have a very active membership, currently numbering approximately 100 individuals.  Members live all over the state!

Club events and activities are held in different areas of the state, and online meetings and educational programs are conducted quarterly to engage the members.  The club's annual Scottish Terrier Specialty Show and Sweepstakes is presented in December of each year, usually in Orlando. 


     We had a great specialty show weekend in Orlando December 12 - 13, 2024! 


Thank you to everyone who participated as an exhibitor, a member

of a planning committee, a sponsor, a volunteer, or a spectator!

We're looking forward to an exciting 2025!

Join Us at the Valentine Spring Event!

February 22, 2024 

Dade Battlefield Historic Park (Bushnell, FL)


The Fall Fun Day was cancelled due to the triple hurricane season-

but mark you calendars and plan to attend our Valentine Spring Event!


Our special attraction will be an amazing Canine Good Citizen (CGC) test skills presentation by our Service Committee. Members will be encouraged to practice with their dogs and receive feedback.  For those who are ready, actual CGC tests will also be offered!  (Instead of a fee for testing, we request that you bring a new or gently used dog item or dog treats that will be donated to a shelter).  A discussion of the process for therapy dog certification will also be provided.

(For more information contact Colleen at flscottielover@gmail.com)


Wear, bring or display your Scottie pins!


There will be fun activities for you and your Scotties... and a great pot luck lunch.


More details will be provided soon... but, for now, SAVE THE DATE!!
