About Duchess
The dam(mom) is liver and white and is very athletic, she loves to be with people and is easy to train and loves to snuggle; she is also very good around children and other animals. She loves fetch and can leap very high for fly balls and absolutely loves to swim and play in the water! We keep her soft coat trimmed back because she plays in the water every day.
