FAILTE – WELCOME 

A very warm welcome to the website of the All Ireland Golden Retriever breed club.  We hope you find this website helpful and please contact the secretary if you need any additional information.

The main objective of this Club is to promote the interest of the Golden Retriever in Ireland and to maintain breed type and standard.    The nature and temperament of the Golden Retriever make it a multi-purpose dog, suitable for showing and work and most of all a companion/family pet. 

A large sized dog with a long, sometimes wavy coat and ranging in colour from cream to dark gold, the Golden Retriever requires regular exercise, grooming and most importantly, love and affection.  This Club provides for all types, including show, working and especially pet Golden Retriever owners.  

On this website you will find all of the key activities concerning golden retrievers in Ireland, our results section provides information on winning dogs for championship shows in Ireland and you will find information on the health checks specific for the breed in the Information Section/Code of ethics, it is very important if you are thinking of getting a puppy or breeding a bitch or having a stud dog.
