Golden Retriever Club
Club details
- About us
- The origins of the GRC date back to 1911 when, under the leadership of Mrs Charlesworth, a committee of four or five stalwarts formed a club for Yellow Retriever owners. In 1913 this fledgling club was recognised by the Kennel Club and became known as the Golden Retriever Club. From those pioneering days the Club has grown to a membership in 2009 of 852 single, 968 joint & 7 junior UK members with 522 single and 194 joint Associate members from overseas. The main objectives of the Club are (a) to encourage the breeding of Golden Retrievers sound in type, conformation and temperament to the KC Breed Standard, and (b) to encourage and facilitate the training and working of the breed. These are achieved through Training Days, Seminars, Shows, Field Trials and Working Tests, and a Code of Ethics. We publish a Year Book, to which members are encouraged to contribute, and a Judges List compiled annually.
