George is being campaigned in the conformation ring as a neuter, earning his Neutered Champion title at the age of 11 months, and was awarded his final points for his Neutered Grand Champion title in August 2022. He is regularly recognised in Group lineups, and has won multiple Best Neuter in Specialty Show awards.
In November 2016, George entered the Rally Obedience ring for the first time and earned a beautiful pass of 96 points. Less than a week later, he followed that up with two more passes, gaining his Rally Novice title at exactly 8 months of age. He has continued to achieve highly in multiple performance sport disciplines, especially in Tracking and Track and Search.
George’s achievements in the show and trial rings have made him a Triple Champion, through his Neutered, Tracking, and Track and Search Champion titles. His Neutered Grand Champion and Track and Search Grand Champion titles also qualify him for the prestigious Dual Grand Champion title - for dogs that hold a Grand Champion title in both conformation and a dog sport.
He is the first King Charles Spaniel in Australia to earn a performance sports title of any kind, and records indicate that he is the first Charlie in the world to earn titles in the disciplines of Tracking and Dances With Dogs, as well as the first to hold champion titles in both conformation and a performance sport.
George is extremely smart and adores training, and is a lot of fun to handle in the show and the trial ring. While life with a Charlie is never entirely predictable, it is always entertaining, and George more than upholds his end of the bargain there.
