ABOUT OUR CLUB The Everglades Terrier Club is a South Florida AKC sanctioned club dedicated to the well-being of all terrier breeds. Our members promote interest in terriers and protect terrier breeds through rescue, and the efforts to sustain breeding for type, function and integrity.
Our Club is an important resource for those seeking information on terriers. We provide a much needed forum for the terrier enthusiast to meet others who share their interest. The Club sponsors educational programs, social activities, and dog events in conjunction with the American Kennel Club (AKC).
