The
Affenpinscher Club of America is the national, or
"parent" club devoted to promoting and
protecting this breed. As stated in our
Constitution, we are guided by the following principles:
- To encourage and promote quality in the breeding of
the purebred Affenpinscher and to do all possible to bring their
natural qualities to perfection;
- To encourage the organization of independent local
Affenpinscher Specialty Clubs in t hose localities where there are
sufficient fanciers of the breed to meet the requirements
of the American Kennel Club.
- To urge members and breeders to accept the standard
of the breed as approved by The American Kennel Club as the only standard
of excellence by which Affenpinschers shall be judged;
- To do all in its power to protect and advance the
interests of the breed and to encourage sportsmanlike competition at dog shows
and obedience trials.
Additionally, the club holds one annual National
Specialty Show. Go to our National Specialty page
