Sept 07 - A wonderfully affectionate and spunky dog, Sophia joined us from Rob & Jen Backstrom of Northern Boerboels (Katie/Sherrif breeding). She instantly wormed her way into the hearts of our children and our family and we have enjoyed watching her grow up over the past year and half. (Hard to believe that she’s the same age as our toddler twins, who will be celebrating their 2nd birthday at the end of November) Extremely muscular and athletic, Sophia is built like a tank… (impressive hind quarters)
Sophia was bred to Duke in March 07 and had her first litter of puppies in May. (She was carrying a whopping 14 pups, although we lost 2 at birth and 2 a few weeks later) She was/is a wonderful mother and went from being spunky young lady to caring mama in an instant. (Something that never ceases to amaze us… that God-given instinct to nurse and nurture) Besides the two beautiful females that we are keeping back to further our kennel, we have placed all of Sophia’s puppies in homes in BC and Alberta. We have been getting rave reviews with pictures from the proud new owners, which warms our hearts everytime. Thanks for keeping in touch! We love receiving all the updates!
Following are some numbers which chart Sophia’s growth:
Sophia stands 23 1/2 inches and weighs 90 lbs at 9 months of age. Just penn-hipped, her left is .52 and her right is .41 with no djd and no cavitation. She is in the 70th percentile.
Sophia will be appraised this spring.
We will be updating her pictures shortly.
