Cherry stands 21.75 inches tall and is 52 pounds of lean, powerful girl with a dark gold. She is from our 2021 litter.
When working, Cherry never lacks enthusiasm for work. She is eager to engage in learning new skills and adapts to meet new challenges with an inquisitive attitude.
Our main focus has been agility and Cherry has proven her skills and drive in this sport. She is extremely fast and explosive on course. She is hard to miss when competing, and catches spectators’ eyes every time she competes.
We have dabbled in field/hunt training with Cherry, and she has shown that she has an aptitude for it like her sire, Cruz. Several of her siblings are doing well in field/hunt work earning their AKC Junior Hunter titles (JH), GRCA Working Certificates (WC) and even an HRC Senior Hunting Retriever title (SHR). We hope to pursue field/hunt training in the coming months to earn Cherry’s JH and WC.
Cherry has shown her normal enthusiasm when we have taken her Dock Diving and we hope to see how competitive she could be in the future. With her intelligence and her enthusiasm to work, Cherry will excel at any task presented to her.
At home, Cherry enjoys the company of the other dogs in the house (both intact males and females) and is friendly with people.
