PERSONALITY
A Boerboel is a loyal affectionate family protector. The Boerboel was bred to be a companion for the family yet powerful and fearless when threatened.
This breed is unique because the same way St. Bernards were bred to be rescue dogs in the snow, Boerboels were bred to love the family and protect without being told what and when to do it.

CARE
Boerboels require a lot of attention, in fact, they demand attention. They also require a strong dominant leader. Boerboels have an alpha mindset which means if you don’t establish yourself as the leader of the pack (family) they will.

ENVIRONMENT
Boerboels require a loving home. This is not the breed you tie to a tree and throw him food. If these dogs don’t get the attention you will have a huge problem that cannot and will not be managed. This breed is strong and powerful and in the wrong hands will be a problem.
Quality Boerboels, I repeat, QUALITY BOERBELS range between $3000-$4500 on average.
history
The name Boerboel derives from the Afrikaans words “boer” which means “farmer,” and “boel” which means “bulldog.” The Boerboel is a large dog, with a strong bone structure and well-developed muscles. The head is blocky and impressive. The Boerboel moves with confidence and he is very sure of himself. Recognized colors are brindle, fawn, brown, Irish, and some variations of these colors.
The Boerboel when threatened will show no fear and will step up head high chest out tail straight up and ready to battle.
