Here at buckeye boerboels we have been breeding Boerboels for almost a decade. We produce dog's that are distinctive in their own right. We believe in the true working South African originally developed to protect the family from the wild animals and savages of AFRICA and is sometimes referred to as the south African mastiff. The name Boerboel is Afrikaans for "farmers dog". A Boerboel must be athletic, Big and strong, muscular with a fearless guard instinct... These qualities are what we strive to achieve at Buckeye Boerboels to assure the South African boerboel will be a self-assured protector of you and your family. He must also be calm and gentle around family members and yet a formidable opponent to anything that may threaten their family. A well bred boerboel should also have a stable, reliable and obedient temperament. We have been breeding large mastiff type breed(including other rare breeds) here at Buckeye Boerboels for over 20 years and believe the African Boerboel is unsurpassed as the best all around protector/family pet that we have seen. We strive to create a loving pet with an even temperament that is happiest in a family environment where they can put their protective instincts into action when required as an extended member of your family. The ave. Life span for the African Boerboel is 12YRS. We strive to be Ethical south African boerboel breeders. WE HAVE SOME OF THE BEST AND SOME OF THE OLDEST SOUTH AFRICAN BOERBOEL BLOODLINES AVAILABLE. WE PREFER A LARGER DOG WITHOUT SACRIFICING AGILITY, TEMPERAMENT, OR HEALTH ISSUES. OUR DOGS ARE REGISTERED WITH THE SABT. We strive to maintain the balance between LOOKS and GENETIC COMPONENTS while breeding quality Boerboel puppies that are unique. OUR DOGS HAVE A STEADY, RELIABLE TEMPERAMENT, BOTH THAT OF PLAYFUL , Reserved AND PROTECTIVE WHICH IN MY OPINION MAKES THEM THE PERFECT CHOICE AS A FAMILY PET. THEY ARE SELF ASSURED, FEARLESS, PLAYFUL, AND AFFECTIONATE TOWARDS THEIR FAMILY. THEY WILL GUARD THEIR FAMILY, FRIENDS, AND PROPERTY WITH THEIR LIFE. WHEN CONSIDERING THIS BREED, A SOUTH AFRICAN BOERBOEL SHOULD HAVE WELL-DEVELOPED MUSCLES AND BE AN IMPRESSIVE AND IMPOSING FIGURE OF STRENGTH...ANY DOG OF THIS STATURE MUST HAVE AN EVEN TEMPERAMENT AND NOT BE VICIOUS, SHY OR OVERLY AGGRESSIVE... The boerboel is extremely HARDY and VERSATILE and can survive in both a kennel or a household. Keeping in mind they must be SOCIALIZED at an early age with all family members, other pets and friends as they are A DOMINATING breed. They become extremely ATTACHED to their families and along with their protective instincts and short coats make them an IDEAL HOUSE DOG. They can survive in both hot and cold climates. Unlike some other large Mastiff type breeds, this SOUTH AFRICAN MASTIFF is NOT lazy and requires a lot of exercise as they love to run and play to relieve boredom. Responsible pet ownership is a pleasure Pet ownership can be one of the most rewarding experiences in life. A well cared for dog makes and an excellent and loyal friend, provides companionship and entertainment and gives you a good reason to go for a walk or jog! They also provides protection and adds a sense of security for your family and teaches children a sense of responsibility. For these reasons and a variety of others, most people perceive their dogs as part of the family, as it should be. Responsible puppy care is easy and enjoyable, provided that you start in the right way and organize yourself properly. |
