Duke is sired by the handsome UK Sh Ch Kyna By Request (UK) and his dam is NZ CH Avila Maid N' The Mist. We are very grateful to Ken and Debbie Grice in permitting us to have these wonderful bloodlines. Pictured here is Duke as he is now ,and as a junior, and as he was as a baby, winning Baby Puppy on Parade at Auckland Exhibition Centre.Our judge was Mrs Sue Chator. Duke was shown as a Baby Puppy, then one weekend as a Junior, now finally only just starting his show career at 3 1/2 yrs old. Unfortunately due to me having a series of accidents preventing me being able to run, Duke didn't continue his show career at 3 1/2 yrs old as planned, but finally he attended 1 1/2 weekends early this year and , he will be out again in the middle of this year. At Hibiscus Coast Kennel Assn on 2nd February 2019 Best of Breed Black Hawk Exhibition Centre 3rd February 2019 Best of Breed, and short listed in final four for Best of Group.
