Come join us and help celebrate 50 years of the Flat-Coated Retriever Society of Canada
Together with the Elgin County Kennel Club, we have 5 action-packed days planned that include 6 sets of conformation points, sweepstakes for puppy, veteran and gundogs, a field day where you can earn all 3 levels (WC-WCI-WCX) of the working certificate series, an obedience trial, a rally trial, an all-breed rally trial and 2 days of scent detection tests.
Please see the Schedule of Events tab.
August 20th – 24th, 2025
Dorchester, Ontario
NOTE: There will be a FCRSC Specialty Catalogue (separate from Elgin County Kennel Club shows) that will include Sweepstakes, Specialty, Obedience and Rally available for purchase on EntryLine when you complete your entries.
The FCRSC Specialty and Elgin County Kennel Club shows are outdoors. The FCRSC has a building (with electricity) for indoor grooming. Grooming space is limited and is on a first-come, first-serve basis. Exhibitors are also welcome to bring their pop-ups and set up their own outdoor grooming space (no electricity available for pop-ups). There will be a booster bath set up on the grounds should dogs require a bath! There is plenty of parking space for the flat-coats. Watch for the signs!
