Caymus

Caymus (Northdales Dark Knight) is a striking Dogue de Bordeaux with a deep, rich red coat that sets him apart from many of his breed. Hailing from Northdale Kennels in Rockwall, Texas, Caymus is a true embodiment of the breed standard, both in appearance and temperament. His pedigree boasts an impressive lineage with several notable champions in his ancestry such as Lenoir Du Clos Des Malicieus and Rozeldogue Up Beat Tempo.

Caymus’s temperament is nothing short of exceptional. He is loyal, loving, and obedient, always eager to please his family. Though he’s a confident and protective guardian, he has a calm and relaxed demeanor that makes him the perfect companion for any household. Caymus is especially wonderful with children and has a gentle nature around other animals, whether it’s cats or fellow dogs. Despite his protective instincts, he’s often referred to as the "laziest guard dog around" due to his love for sleeping—a quirky trait that only adds to his charm.

Physically, Caymus is a true standout with his deep, dark red coat that is darker than most Dogue de Bordeauxs, and his thick bone structure that gives him a strong and imposing presence. His build perfectly aligns with the breed standard, showcasing his excellent conformation and strong genetics. With his impressive lineage and physical traits, we have high expectations for Caymus’s future as a sire, as he is poised to pass down his health, temperament, and striking appearance to his offspring.

Caymus was chosen for our breeding program not only for his remarkable physical traits but also because he is a first-generation U.S.-born Dogue de Bordeaux with an exceptional pedigree. His background speaks for itself, and he brings a unique blend of heritage and quality to our program. While Caymus has yet to sire his first litter, we are confident that his puppies will inherit his incredible disposition and powerful build.

At home, one of our favorite things about Caymus is his laid-back attitude. He’s always there for a snuggle or a nap, but when it comes time to protect his family, his confidence and loyalty shine through. Caymus is a key member of our breeding program, and we are proud to have him as part of our family.
