I did mention it to a member of ASCA and they are checking into it. She indicated that there are other aussie organizations that use that acronym so not sure if it's the official club.

The American Bulldog is a totally separate rare breed from the AKC Bulldog. I'm assuming that this American Bulldog club is one of the independent registries for that particular breed. Same for the Border Collie club, which is not that AKC Parent Club for the breed. Neither is ASCA. But I really don't think ASCA would appreciate being so prominently displayed on Hunte's web site like that. Maybe someone in Aussies should clue ASCA in? ~*~*~*~*~*~* Karen C.
