Carlo KLH is a son of Carlo van ‘t Veerhuis, a bull with splendid values for characteristics such as body, breed type, foundation and muscle development Especially his physique is what stands out (94-88-89-86-General Appearance 89). His dam is the award-winning (preference) cow Lotte who was champion at several shows. Her physique was a very strong point (92-90–88–86–GA 90). The grandfather of Carlo KLH is Hein and was the winner in the 1 to 2 year olds and “Mr. Future” in Zwolle. Both bulls are the breeding result of the well-known breeding barns of Hoekman from Zalk.
