Performing at first at small local fetes, the Team were noticed and invited to Kennel Club events.
The Team grew to twelve, and then to sixteen, and the routines became more complicated. The Team came into being in 2000 when eight handlers who had enjoyed their training at the Society's classes at Wrotham in Kent decided to stick together and do small routines to music. For over eighteen years the Team have delighted audiences throughout the South of England at venues large and small. Sixteen dogs perform and are supported by reserves in the “wings”. The Southern Golden Retriever Society's Display Team consists of a Team of twenty-two dogs and four helpers. We caught up with Jan, a member of the of the society to tell us more about the Golden Retriever Society Display Team: Today an important and popular part of the society is the Display Team, a Team dedicated to providing entertainment and to promoting the docile nature of these gorgeous dogs through the performance of obedience routines to music. All team dogs have their Gold Certificates. The Club trains to The Kennel Club Good Citizen scheme. Since then, the society has expanded and now involves many functions such as training, showing, and providing best-practice advice for buying golden retriever puppies, responsible breeding and the importance of training. Vet's Kitchen are proud to support The Southern Golden Retriever Society Display Team.įounded in 1977, The Southern Golden Retriever Society was set up to ensure the safeguarding and preservation of Golden Retrievers across Kent, East Sussex, West Sussex, Hampshire, and South London.
