The breeding that produced Smoke was the revelation of Sandi Rolfe.  She decided to breed her beautiful Shannon to my equally beautiful Ozzie.  As with all breedings, you envision all the best from each parent and keep your fingers crossed.  Smoke did get many of the best attributes from each parent and I am so glad that Sandi allowed me to co-breed the litter.  She was shown very selectively and was admired by many for her side gait and beautiful outline.  I certainly admired them!  Smoke was only bred once and that was to the top producing, Reign.  They produced a wonderful litter from which I have been able to go to my next generation.  Smoke was a mushy kisser,  who liked to hug and cuddle,  a trait she passed on strongly to her kids and grandkids. Smoke passed on July 29, 2002 the same way she lived life,  in a gentle,  quiet manner.
