Winston
Am/Can CH Knightcastle Black Tie Affair
Winston lives in Guelph (ON) with owner Gwen Croser. He comes from the 2022 Showbizz surprise litter and was wearing the burgundy collar. He earned his Canadian Championship on October 23 2023. As a puppy, he was hightly intelligent and a great bird retriever. Winston earned his American Champion title on November 3, 2024 in Fort Wayne (Indiana). Winston received all his OFA clearances in October 2024.
Here are the comments from Gwen, Winston's owner: 'When I first met Winston, he came running over and jumped into my arms. For both of us, it was love at first sight. Winston is a very athletic dog and an enthusiastic swimmer, viewing every puddle as a potential swimming pool. He is gentle with children, and many have commented that, given his calm, placid demeanour, he would make a good service animal. Winston is sociable, smart, a natural retriever, and my very loyal and constant companion. We have had some success in the conformation ring, winning a Best Puppy in Group at his first show and earning his Canadian Champion title that same year. According to Canuckdogs statistics, he was the top-rated flat coated retriever puppy in Canada for 2023. In 2024, we focused on US shows and he earned his American title with a major at a FCRSA supported entry show in Fort Wayne, with all his points coming from the Amateur Owner-Handler class. I will be starting Agility with Winston soon and I expect him to do well as he always gives 110% effort in everything I ask him to do.''
