A UK record for the largest gathering of golden retrievers has been broken, at the Highlands home of the breed.

Organisers said there had been 466 of the dogs at the Guisachan House in Glen Affric, where the world’s first golden retriever puppies were born in 1868.

The turnout smashed the previous British record of 361, set at the same location five years ago – on the 150th anniversary of the breed.

Gatherings of enthusiasts are held every few years at the home, where aristocrat Sir Dudley Marjoribanks first bred golden retrievers, in an attempt to create a dog well suited to the Highland terrain.

“It was a fantastic day, everybody loved it,” Tom Gorrian, chairman of the Golden Retriever Club of Scotland, said.

“Despite some really heavy showers we’ve counted 466, which we believe is the most ever in the UK.”
