The Berkshire Downs and Chilterns Golden Retriever Club was founded in 1978 by a small group of enthusiasts from the five counties of Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxford, Hertfordshire and Hampshire, an area later extended to include Middlesex and Wiltshire. Membership is not restricted to any geographic area.
The objectives of the club are to benefit the welfare of Golden Retrievers and further educate its members in the management, training, showing , working, and all other aspects of The Golden Retriever.
Our first open show was held in November of 1978, our first Championship show in 1981 and our first Field Trial in 2001. Annually we continue to run a Summer Open show and a Championship Show in the Autumn.
We aim to run an annual Field Trials and Working Tests.
Working Training sessions are offered where possible. These sessions are either run alongside our open show or at a working test.
We are proud to send a team to represent us at the Inter-Club Working Tests hosted by Golden Retriever Clubs around the country.
Area Covered :
The Counties of Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire, Hertfordshire, Hampshire, Middlesex and Wiltshire
