Liberty, whose full AKC-registered name was Honor’s Foxfire Liberty Hume, was popular with both the press and the public during the Ford administration. She even gave birth to a litter of puppies in the White House.
The American Kennel Club introduced its official obedience trials in 1977, and its first three obedience champions were golden retrievers.
The very first was a female named Moreland’s Golden Tonka, aka Tonka. During Tonka’s career, she earned eight perfect scores and 176 “High in Trial” awards.
