Celebrating the Legacy of the Golden Retriever in the Scottish Highlands

Celebrating the Legacy of the Golden Retriever in the Scottish Highlands

On a picturesque estate in the Scottish Highlands, a gathering of golden retrievers and their owners took place to celebrate the breed's history and legacy.
Guisachan House, located in Glen Affric, served as the birthplace of the first golden retriever puppies 155 years ago.

The breed was developed by Sir Dudley Marjoribanks, an aristocrat who sought to create a gun dog that could thrive in the rugged terrain of the Highlands.

Participants from various regions, including the UK, Europe, North America, Australia, and Japan, came together to pay homage to this beloved breed.

A series of events, such as lectures, workshops, demonstrations, and a night-time procession, took place at Guisachan House and the surrounding area near Tomich and Cannich.

The golden retriever, known for its friendly and affectionate nature, has become a popular breed worldwide, and this gathering served as a testament to its enduring appeal.

Whether you're a seasoned dog owner or simply an admirer of the breed, the Highlands provided a fitting backdrop for a celebration of these beloved canines.
