Thanks, This is as much as he will fill out height wise, but he will fill out in the body more, hopefully in the chest department lol
His breeder told me the males in her line were late developers, and this is certainly what I have seen in his father. I will upload pics. He father is now over 3 years, and has filled out Substantially, and is doing very well.

He is really gorgeous. Lemme ask you, did you waiver back and forth over cropped ears, or was it never an issue for you?
Lol! Duke is such a big softy! Yes, I find they are very similar to poodles! I have heard Poodles often described as Dobies in Drag!

Never had to waiver over cropped ears, as it isn't an option in NZ.. it's illegal, and has been for some time! I am just praying that the tail docking ban will, as his tail is like a bloody whip! He wags it so fast, that I would hate to think what it would be like if it was full length!!

Here's his father (Grandson of AM CH Cambria's Cactus Cash -Famous American Dobermann)
