Welcome to GPDFA.org

The Greater Philadelphia Dog Fanciers Association, Inc. (GPDFA) is an all-breed kennel club consisting of owners, breeders, and exhibitors of all breeds of purebred dogs.

GPDFA was founded in 1968 to bring together dog fanciers in the community, for the purpose of encouraging responsible dog ownership and breeding practices among its members and the community. Another purpose of GPDFA is to conduct dog shows, matches, and obedience trials. In 1992 GPDFA became a member club of the American Kennel Club (AKC). GPDFA is also a member of the Pennsylvania Federation of Dog Clubs, Inc.
