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 over 100 individuals.  Members live all over the state of Florida- and in other states, too!

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.

President’s Message

July 11, 2025

Greetings to all STCTB members and friends. 

As we begin a new year I would like to thank you for continuing to believe in and support the mission of

stewarding our beloved breed into the future.  I am proud to report that we continue to bring in new members

which is the foundation of our success.  The board will be setting goals for the year over the summer so please

reach out to any officer or director with suggestions/ideas that we should consider incorporating into the discussions.

There are currently plans in the works for our Fall Fun Day on October 18 at the Dade Battlefield Park. 

The event committee is also working on a big project to hold a bladder cancer screening clinic sometime in 2026. 

A presentation will be scheduled well before that to educate members on the risk to our dogs and the

importance of early detection.  The show committee will host our annual Specialty Show on December 12

in Orlando in conjunction with the AKC National Championship weekend.  Olivia Sayer has volunteered

to bring back a quarterly newsletter with a mission to educate owners on issues relevant to Scotties. 

The board is also planning to make some STCTB branded items available soon. 

And we are just getting started!

Your board meets via Zoom the second Wednesday of each month at 7:00, and members are always

always welcomed to audit the meetings.  If you have not made your dues payment I hope that you will do so. 

Your membership is yet another way of declaring your love for our breed❤️.


Thank you!

Linda Andresen


Scottie Connections Thrive!


In 2025 the board  adopted a goal/theme:  Scottie Connections Thrive in 2025.

We are working diligently to foster better communication, collaboration and connection in the year ahead. 

As part of that effort, we would love to hear from you- our members. 


What can the STCTB do for you? 

What do you wish the club would do better?

What events would you like to see more of? 

What ideas do you have?


Feel free to reach out to president Linda Andresen (southmoonscotties@phossil.com)

or any board member with suggestions and ideas!
