International Champion of Beauty (2 CACIB in 2 different countrys + Good in Field Trial)
Luxembourg Champion
International Show Champion (4 CACIB in 3 different countrys)
Field Trial Champion (a la Francaise) 3 CACT + 1 VG  a l’anglaise
Work & Show Dog of the Year 2012 

This is Pidou’s 5^th  CH. TITLE.  This last title, awarded in FRANCE, is particularly significant.   To be awarded TOP GOLDEN RETRIEVER WORK & SHOW, is an extremely prestigious title, as it awards exceptional quality both in the FIELD...

 

Pidou demonstrated this combination by coming up # 1  for 2012!!!

Many thanks to Chantal for what she has achieved with RCG goldens.  I asked her to write a few words for our news:

"I’m particulary proud of the  W & S   CH.TITLE that Pidou has just won.  Pidou, like his father,  proves that ABOVE AVERAGE SHOW QUALITY and ABOVE AVERAGE NATURAL HUNTING ABILITY are perfectly compatible!!!   It’s exactly what I expect from a golden retriever.  I am very lucky to have 2 exceptional, clever, considerate, and funny golden retrievers in my family.

I LOVE YOU two boys."

 

We are thrilled with RCG XTRA VOGUE a.k.a. DINA’s rewarding results last week-end.   Dina and her owner, Pia Grisell, not only passed the HUNT TEST with MAXIMUM POINTS (in order to participate in FIELD TRIALS, retrievers must pass this exam in Denmark where the level is EXTREMELY HIGH),

         but they also arrived SECOND in their VERY FIRST WORKING TEST!  Dina is just 13 months old.  BRAVA Pia.   I  appreciate how carefully you planned Dina’s training program.

 In the very same week-end, Dina’s  OFFICIAL HIP [A] and ELBOW [0]  scores arrived!  Dina is a daughter of  MULTI CH., FTW, CH. Sociale 2012 RCG  VANITY FLAIR  X  RCG  XTRA  PERSUASION.  I couldn’t have wished for more, and it all happened with in a couple of days!!!

Thank you Pia, for giving Dina such a wonderful life

 

At only 21 months , ROYAL CREST GOLD-n COVER GIRL wins CAC/CACIB  BOB at the coveted French Championship Show in Marseille on Saturday.  I am so proud of this important result.  I was equally proud of the R.CACIB R.CAC  won by Dual Ch. ROYAL CREST GOLD-n CRACKLYN FUSION.  He looked utterly stunning!

 

  

The day finished on a very high note when  Ch. Sociale ROYAL CREST GOLD-n BOW DERRICK at over 9 years old, went to the top of the podium with BEST IN SHOW VETERAN all BREEDS!

 

  

Little COVER GIRL held her own also, taking the number 2 spot on the podium with SECOND BEST of GROUP 8.  An absolutely wonderful  day.

 

 

 

Many thanks to judge RENE RAULT  for appreciating our goldens.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Quarta edizione di questa manifestazione organizzata da Bayer,  dedicata al miglior amico dell’uomo: il cane. Hanno partecipato oltre 500 esemplari, di tutte le razze e di tutte le dimensioni, per una mini-maratona di circa 4 km al guinzaglio dei loro padroni con partenza dall’Arena di Milano all’interno del Parco Sempione.

Scopo dell’evento, raccogliere fondi per le associazioni di volontariato che operano con i cani ( SICS – Cani da salvataggio) e sensibilizzare la gente alla cura dei propri animali nella vita di tutti i giorni.

Tutto questo sotto il controllo e la supervisione della Scuola Italiana cani da Salvataggio, presenti come sempre per garantire la sicurezza dei partecipanti  (a due e quattro zampe) e far conoscere alle persone i cani “supereroi”, sempre pronti ad aiutare dentro e fuori dall’acqua chiunque ne abbia bisogno!

Non potevano mancare due RCG,  Jaguar e Miss Chandy,  sul palco per le premiazioni ufficiali insieme a molti personaggi dello sport e dello spettacolo. Dario Ballantini (Valentino), Susanna Messaggio, Alessia Reato, Igor Cassina , Antonio Rossi e Marco Mazzocchi.

 

    

 

             

Is it my turn yet?

Tocca a me?

 

 

 

I am sure I saw a lizard. Where is it hiding?

Sono sicuro di aver visto una lucertola. Dove si sta nascondendo?

 

 

 

 

WHAT's UP? A lawn mower really makes a weird noise.

Cosa succede? Un tagliaerba fa un rumore molto fastidioso.

 

 

 

 

Tafta is such a good mother!

Tafta è una bravissima mamma!

RCG PRIVATE AFFAIR "JINKO", wins his 8th straight victory since he began his show career in February!

Today, he won his first CAC in a club show, and went on to do BOB (in an entry of 32 males and 42 females). He now has to his credit 2 BOB and one BOS from YOUNG and INTERMEDIATE class. Not bad results for his young age of just 18 months.

Blazer (RCG OH MY LORD) won CH. class and Whopper (RCG VANITY FLAIR) was 5th in the same class. J.B. (RCG WINNER BETS ALL) was 4th in OPEN. SID (RCG NEVER GIVE IN) placed 2nd in Intermediate.

Fitch, Cover Girl, and Diana missed their classes due to technical difficulties!

Thank you Ms. Tregaskis for your nice compliments about our dogs, and a lovely day.

Thank you judge Mr. Maynard, for the lovely Critiques about our boys: Fitch (2nd CH class), Whopper (3rd Ch class) J.B. (debut in Open 3rd), Jinko (WON Intermediate his first time out), and Conner (3rd in Young). For this show, we left the girls at home

 

My "sincere gratitude" to all the owners of these RCG goldens who have done so well in this 10 days circuit. I "really appreciate" your "dedication" and "hard work" to bring out the "best" in your RCG golden.

A GOOD DOG is not ENOUGH! TRAINING and PREPARATION is equally IMPORTANT to achieve RESULTS!!!

That is why I am so proud of all of you. SIMPLY SAID, THANK YOU.
