Smooch was the epitome of a show dog, having achieved #1 Female in the US in 2006, and being awarded the Ch. Asterling’s Tahiti Sweetie Memorial Award trophy accordingly. She achieved the 1st Judges Award of Merit (JAM) at the Golden Retriever Nationals in 2006. Smooch was an incredibly well balanced and powerfully moving dog. She excelled in the ring with her side gait and correct movement. She began her ‘Mom’ career in 2007, and has had five litters since then. Watch for these kids in the ring: Ch.
