Membership Requirements

Border Collie owners of good moral character are eligible for membership in the International Border Collie Association.   Persons wishing to register a dog or dogs must first become members. Transfers of ownership will be processed so long as either the new owner or the previous owner or the breeder is a member.

The I.B.C.A. is an association to register Border Collies and pure breed herding dogs. We are dedicated to preserve and protect the right to own and breed pedigree dogs. The I.B.C.A. recognizes several other registration services, ABCA, CBCA, AWBC, ISDS, AIBC, and NSDR.

I have an IBCA registered dog and an AKC or ABCA, etc. registered dog. Can I breed them and register?

IBCA accepts all registrations listed on our homepage including AKC as long as the breeder/owner is in good standing. Dual registration with any litters produced may than be registered with IBCA.

Dual registration does not remove the current registration; it merely means the dog is now registered with another registry as well.
