Duke Appraised 12th in the world, in 2008.

Sept 07 - At 18 months of age, Duke weighs in at roughly 165lbs. He’s a big boy alright, and is our pride and joy. A very easy going, laid back individual, not much fazes him… Pennhipped at 9 months, his results were far more than we had hoped for, being in the 90th percentile. He’s sired 3 litters for us, born 2 weeks apart to Sophia (May 07) and Bella (June 07). They were absolutely beautiful puppies, making it hard for us to give them up as most of them were of breeding material. At this point (early Sept) we have one female available still, the rest have gone to wonderful homes all over BC and Alberta. We got Duke from Northern Boerboels, of the first Kloey/M’bumba breeding.

Following are some numbers that document his growth: 

110 lbs at 7 months of age, stands 25 inches tall

He’s 137 lbs at 7 1/2 months, doesn’t show any sign of slowing down.  I can still grab hand fulls of skin on this boy.

…143lbs at 8 1/2 months of age…

…He’s now 153, stocky and muscular - about 1 year of age, I don’t think he’s done yet…we’ll see…

…He’s 14 months old - 159 maybe 160 - we’ll see after he’s recovered from breeding with Sophia.

Duke is 165lbs and carries himself around like an athlete( a big one).

 

We just had him penn-hipped, .39 left and .33 right. no djd and no cavitation.

Duke is in the 90th percentile.

We are all very happy about that.

Duke will be appraised this fall in person, 2008
