The Boerboel, is a large, Molosser-type breed from South Africa and are bred for the purpose of guarding the homestead. These dogs were bred as working farm dogs and are one of the most powerful dog breeds in the world

Living with a boerboel- Follow all of the guidelines for training and care of any guardian/mastiff breed (early socialization, basic obedience, introducing strangers to the farm or home, etc.). Prepare to be sat on, stepped on, slept on top of, slobbered on. They’re perfect dogs for the right family. You do need to manage them around strangers or surprise guests. They want to defend your property. You shouldn’t own a boerboel if you don’t want or can’t manage that trait. Keep them on a leash around strange dogs or people. They’re not Labradors. That being said my properly trained and socialized bb is extremely gentle around babies, small children, elderly people. They very, very sensitive defenders of your family and property. I can take my bb on leash in public and he behaves perfectly around strangers. Zeke does have several other bb breed videos- search his channel. They’re an amazing breed for the right person.

[@rickymangrum-texasrealtor3908]

[@ilovesteveclark6084]

You are wonderful! Thank you for sharing your immense knowledge about this extraordinary breed. My beautiful Boerboel, my big girl Dea, died suddenly and unexpectedly from Mast Cell Cancer 2 years ago. I am still crying every night. She was my best friend, and my family's guardian! She even protected me from danger 3 times, including a potential break-in. My darling took her last breaths in my arms, but what broke my heart the most was that she insisted on giving me "kisses." That is what love is. R.I.P. my darling Dea. I miss you, I love you, I wish so badly that you were still here with me.

[@kierapetit9761]

While I'm no expert in the boerboel specifically, this is a more generalized response to all the comments on these videos on these types of breeds saying that the dogs are "not big enough". It is confusing to me; these are supposed to be working dogs, and dogs that are bred just to be massive lack the athleticism and stamina to do their job. Of course I don't appreciate what the show ring has done to some working breeds, like the German Shepherd and their deformed backs, but to say that the dogs are not correct simply because they are not massive and chunky is counterintuitive to what the breed needs to do their job... Not saying they should be delicate, but there is a reason for the type of athletic build that working line dogs have, that is neither extreme. I have no more respect for breeders trying to win a new record of biggest dog of their breed than I do for breeders who breed for any other impractical extreme. Working dogs especially need balance, and even people who love their dogs to be huge should recognize that. If you do want a huge dog just because it's your flex to have a huge dog, you do you, they are out there; but don't pretend that breeding for hugeness is what is best for the breed.

[@vanessagonzalez7862]

I love the athletic and lean look over the 200+ pounds of fat (which the owners usually claim is muscle 🤣) look

[@tottenhambulldogs9444]

Well said

[@publicbudcasting4478]

I have a 160 lb female Bb she has well over a 5ft vertical and moves like water. As long as you dont bulk them out young (this also bad for growth plates) they are amazingly athletic. Also in my experience as smart if not more then a most shepherds. Climb a ladder, open doors, high vocab recognition. Our little girl leaned to ring a bell, love her crate, 4 non verbal hand commands and 5 in Russian before she was 10 weeks. Check my channel if you want a visual.

[@kierapetit9761]

@@publicbudcasting4478 I have nothing against healthy dogs that happen to be large, and I am not saying that all large dogs have issues :) I have a problem with the breeding for the primary purpose of hugeness, which is usually at the expense of soundness and health, and for bulking out dogs for the look. My point was not that dogs should not be over x amount of pounds, but that they shouldn't be bred with the goal of making them ever larger as some breeders do, but rather bred to be the healthiest they can be; and that the most massive dog isn't always the best breed example, even in these large breeds. Best of luck with your pup :)

The crazy lady in the video isn't that crazy... She did say the the dog should be ballances for it's size...

Best to get a Borboel from a Working Line and not a breeder that focuses specifically on "conformation." You want a "pretty statue" this may be the breeder for you; you want a working dog go to a breeder that works their dogs thus proving their true temperament.

[@GianniAzul3609]

From looking at this video You can already see the difference between AKC dogs and traditional boerboels. The AKC dogs have longer legs, tighter flews and more angulation on their stifles. Further, the AKC restriction on Irish pied dogs is strange. Also, some of the breeds this woman mentioned that allegedly went into the creation of this breed are highly suspicious to me. The AKC and it’s followers have ALWAYS ruined the look and ability of breed after breed. There is no reason to believe that the boerboel would be any different. No. Thank you. I will stick to dogs from other registries.

If you follow your own logic there will be no breeds to enjoy whatsoever, not to mentioned the incredible love, devotion and decades of hard highly sophisticate work to create a breed.For those particular dogs the "folks" rejecting the "black boerboels" as representing the breed are absolutely right, the lady in this video is projecting big time describing them as the greedy ones.For anybody who love big black mastiff type dogs there are plenty to choose from.

[@basstrammel1322]

As puppies my chi and a puppy Boerboel connected like magnets and screamed when they saw the other owners car coming to the dog park. Like teenagers in deep love, they always dived towards each other, but stopped 2 meters away and both did a silly happy-dance for a while. Then they roamed in a 30-35 meter radius from us owners, exploring things together and having a lovely time. Once they spooned while 3-4 dogs where busy whith other stuff, which broke our hearts. If someone my dog didn't like entered the park (like, 3 times in 2 years) he'd bark and holler at them until his big friend ran up real close on the intruders. Soft and tender, but still makes anyone think twice before making any threats. I'm in serious considerations of getting a Boerbol now. I just like both kinds of dogs, and it's kinda nice having one alerter and one enforcer. Just in case.

These are real working size boerboels. Those giant 200lb boerboels can't work a day on a farm

[@kyazzedavid4213]

Rate this boerboel

[@lauriepassione753]

My Boerboel is a beautiful example of the breed

[@icemann1419]

I just recently purchased a black one. Im the only person in the town with a black boerboel.

[@eric4681702]

dont judge them by the color of their coat, but by the content of their character.

[@icemann1419]

Enzino agreed

[@scottydees2748]

I got a black female, and I've seen a lot of negative feedback from some breeders about the blacks. She's an awesome example of the breed and a great dog, what more could you want. AKC is all about money. Happy days.

[@johntuff]

Shit if a black boerboel, parents are fawn colored. Does it make him any less of a boerbeol still?

[@icemann1419]

scotty Dees yea akc is full of shit I could care less for their standards

[@michaelbell390]

I have a black brindle..he is my world.❤

[@ronaldmponda621]

American Bred boerboels are friendly......too friendly.lol

[@HB-gj7gd]

how to make a working dog into a show dog - give it to the americans im being hyperbolic ofc chill lots of great dogs in the US ofc - but you get what I mean - I got a tonn of examples - like the Irish setter a working dog turned into a joke in america - not all, chill again

[@HB-gj7gd]

women breeding working dogs - yeah ok - thats not turning into a show dog in two seconds

[@w.dieterich7077]

my dogs dad is a straight from Africa coming boerboel breed. So my dog still has his hunting mutations

[@justranting4510]

This video is a MUST see for anyone (especially Americans) who have an interest is these amazing family members. The one shown in the show is probably the closet to perfection I have ever seen. Too many American breeders have ruined their dogs as they breading them too big. There in no need to try getting them bigger than the one shown here, trust me that dog will destroy those overgrown beasts, because though it is lighter it is almost the same strength, but it is more agile, an over sized BOERBOEL is ugly.

[@stargod3064]

Why did she say definitely no yellow eyes?

[@Ghis1964s]

I keep being telling that mine was a canecorso mix bullmastiff. Bullmastiff are way "fatter-style" than mine, and canecorso are mostly black. (oh... that's the one next to me on my user-pic/icon) Can a blood/dna-test show which race mine is?

[@kebbesan]

Yes, embark comes to my mind right now

[@claudine1220]

Beautiful dog! I can see he/she has the cane corso muzzle, longer snout but has classic bull mastiff colouring. Looks like a fine balance. DNA testing will tell you exactly what you have there :)

[@bartvandenhaute4019]

Yes but never answer the question about what breeds you think are in your dog, because the test will give you those breeds (they don't test anything but give you what you want and take your money).

🧡💜🧡💜👍👍👍👍😘

[@seankaine2411]

The AKC in my opinion has in one way been helpful for dogs but in another been detrimental. I have seen them interbreed dog just to make them more Handler friendly. I'm just going to leave it at that

[@IrvinBeast]

Can you make a “Living with...” video on the Caucasian Shepherd or the Fila Brasilerio think those would be great vids.

[@brodiedenslow3736]

IrvinBeast really agree!!

[@olde738]

Make a video on border terriers please!!

[@Janeway1269]

I second this!

[@rafaelrodriguez182]

Akc has ruined just about every dog breed. Thi lady obviously does not know what she is talking about. also she is alright with the boerbel weighting 180 still to heavy. This breed should be very athletic in order to perform in extreme environments

[@austinjamison6169]

200lbs on a male is fine if there lean on a high protein diet and sled pulling/exercised these are a big breed most males won't get heavier then 180 becuase people don't feed and weight train them for that size these dogs were bread to deter lions and hyenas

[@VT990]

What’s a good weight?

[@rafaelrodriguez182]

100 to 135

[@richardturner4074]

@@rafaelrodriguez182 Iike to keep them around 120. Definitely don't want to have a 180 pound dog.

[@donkeyballs3307]

That fawn bitch at 4 minutes is beautiful
