Luke was a solidly-built dog, moderate in height,
well-angulated and well-balanced, with substantial bone and coat. Although
peppered with white at 10.5 yrs of age in the photos below, in his youth Luke's
coat was a rich golden blonde color. Luke's movement was effortless, yet strong
and powerful. He had excellent reach and a ground-sweeping stride, and
reproduced this in his offspring. Luke's head was broad with a gentle kindly
expression. He had full dentition.
As lovely as he was physically, we consider Luke's most outstanding attribute to
have been his flawless "Golden" temperament. Friendly, out-going but
non-aggressive, wanting more than anything in the world to be with people. Luke
was trustworthy with cats, puppies and young children. In his limited breedings,
Luke reproduced his temperament in his offspring. At least one worked regularly
as a therapy dog, visiting nursing homes, and working with autistic children.
Luke earned a Tracking Dog title. He was trained in obedience through Open, but
was never shown (other than one match where he won Novice B). The first time
Luke was ever shown in conformation, he won a Specialty 3-point major. In
limited showing, Luke accumulated 5 championship points, including the one major
and a Best of Breed win over specials.
