There is an abiding SADNESS in Scotland, origin of our beautiful Golden Retriever breed. Fortunately, through the tireless efforts of many fanciers, there now stands a statue representing our monumental breed of dog. Thanks go to Dudley and Tweedmouth. And he had the good sense NOT to call them Dudlies or Tweedmouths.
Someone asked why I posted a photo of a castle in ruins. Actually that building is what remains of the Guisachan estate or manor house. Some Scotsman named Dudley once lived there with his black, brown and yellow hunting dogs. The rest, as they say, is history.
