    The Boerboel, also known as the South African Mastiff, is a large, Molosser-type breed from South Africa bred for the purpose of guarding the homestead. These dogs were bred as working farm dogs. BBATV caught up with Fuller and Gallant Boerboels in Mariposa, California. This is an amazing breed of mastiff powerful, athletic, and intelligent.

    I am in South Africa. My boerboel Shady is a very laid back girl. She loves kids although not many kids visit. We are an older couple. If she thinks I'm threatened in any way she will sit with me and not move until she feels happy. She tends to be lazy when it comes to working. Love her and my beagle to bits. They are both 4 years old.

      Is it a bad idea to get a boerboel as a first time owner, even if I've done enough research?

    As an older South African Boer, I started watching this video with a biased opinion as I grew up with Boerbulls. The females of this breed are usually FIERCELY loyal to either an individual or a family depending on the way they grew up. Males are more often than not the instigators with a deep warning bark while the females attack with little to no warning. Since these dogs are very heavy and strongly built few subjects of attack survive an encounter. We tend to teach our dogs not to take food from strangers or to pick up random food thus minimizing poisoning.

    I admire this breed and have seen a few of them. My own dog shares some similar roots in that he is a Rhodesian Ridgeback, another breed from southern Africa that was used as a home guardian and all purpose hunting dog with a specialty in lion hunting. He has the light brown "wheaten" color of the Boerboels shown in this video. I believe that the two breeds have similar temperaments and are both exceptionally loyal and protective by nature. Logan is on the high end of size for a Ridgeback, weighing right around 115 lbs. One day at dog park a fellow showed up with a young male Boerboel who was the same height and length as Logan but weighed 30 lbs more, all rock hard muscle. Although both were intact males, they got along just fine with no hostilities. Life is better with a really good dog at your side.

    • @justranting4510
      @justranting4510 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ridgebacks are slightly leaner and taller, and while I personally prefer the boerboel I have to admit the Ridgeback is easier to train and a bit smarter than my baby. Tough the Boerboel is the better choice round kids so I guess that even them out. Southern Africa is a harsh world that is not for sissies and our dogs are a perfectly suited to it, also the people here tend to treat dogs more like family than possessions unlike other places in the world, not saying people do not love their dogs in other places just the bond is not as strong same as people from the far North.

    Boerboels are actually great family dogs, my red male boerboel just turned a year old he is weighing in at 154 pounds and still has amazing endurance and loves to play. Very friendly we have 4 kids, 2 other dogs and a cat and he gets along with them perfectly. Great guard dog as well.... If a stranger decided to walk into our house without knocking he would definitely regret walking in... :-)

    Went on April 4th to the WoofFest here in Beirut, Lebanon & I saw the most beautiful male black, pedigree Boerboel I've ever seen anywhere. He was a massive, super docile 5 year old male, his owner however confirmed he's as tough a guard dog as they can ever get. From my understanding he was well trained & properly socialized, being very friendly to other dogs & people as well. Loved the breed since!

    Grew up with these dogs in South Africa and bred them for years as my family did for decades . Never ever needed to separate them from each other . The pack was always together . They need a strong leader . If you need to separate them to maintain control then you aren’t fit to be a pack leader for these dogs . They are powerful dogs and need a powerful pack leader .

    • @Ericsaidful
      @Ericsaidful ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's not natural to have a "pack" of non-familial canines. You may have a mother, a father, and then offspring up to 2 years old together. But a dog pack wouldn't have intact males together who aren't related because, naturally, it results in bloodshed due to competition for breeding, space, and other resources (real or imagined).

    I have personally had the privilege of owning an African Boerboel and I can tell you that I have never felt safer than with my Wyatt. Extremely smart, intuitive, perceptive, and beautifully striped. A reverse brindle. Wyatt was very athletic agile, and highly flexible. A best friend, highly HIGHLY intelligent, beautifully proportioned, fiercely loyal and protective, even if in the end it resulted in his death. I don't recommend for a very social dog, or even a family dog unless you very strictly trained. They are bad ass and they know it... But when you have a very strong bond, and SET boundaries as to whom is in charge, you could not ask for a better companion nor protector. I miss Wyatt dearly every single day, and am grateful that I was able to call one of this breed my friend.

    I currently have my first Boerboel. I can't do justice to how great these dogs are. He behaves so well, learned quickly, extremely protective but a giant (and I do mean giant) baby with people he knows are not a threat. If there's anything bad I can say about him it's that he drools a lot, so we have paper towels stashed everywhere, but we got over that quick.

    Whats up guys. Im a South African and have 3 boerboels of my own. Just to add my 2c. Boerboels in general are very docile dogs with little aggression except when protecting the homestead . Obviously not all dogs are the same. They wont stand a chance against a lion but they were not bred to fight lions 1 on 1. Hunters used a pack of them and the idea was to protect the owner. If a lion were to attack, then the pack would fight to the death to protect the owner so they could escape. Even lions would be overwhelmed by 7 or 8 of these dogs simply because of numbers. My dogs stay at a farm n go out hunting on their own,a trait i never taught them. Ppl over feed to try n get the dog bigger bt then they become lazy. My dogs are free to roam so are highly fit and have fair pace for their size. Don't really care about the stance n square face, i zoned out when she started talking about that.

    Absolutely beautiful dogs they are a credit to all your hard work. I raised my German Rottweiler on the BARF (Bone & Raw Food) diet, He was exceptionally big for his breed,solid muscle, hardly ever ill and lived to be 11 + years old (the vet said because of his size he'd die before he was7), he was also the sweetest tempered dog I've ever had. Yes sourcing raw food can be hard work (in Britain at least), as most laws forbid hunting and trapping isn't looked at well with all the do gooders and such. Killing for sport is okay because only the rich can do it, but killing for sustenance is mostly illegal.

    For me they are the quintessential breed to have. They're great with children, sometimes a little over protective, but wonderful house dogs. They are very intelligent and need a lot of exercise or they'll chew the hell out of your furniture. Unless they've grown up with the family, they will need a slow introduction to those that visit occasionally. Loyalty is a key element of the breed, hence they are excellent guard dogs. This breed is not a first time dog, so if you're thinking of getting one I would advise against it. Proper training is essential to bond with the animal otherwise you have a rival for the alpha position. Love and respect goes a long way and the pay back is worth the effort.

      Thank you for your comment. Like you I think they are the greatest breed but from an early age I found they needed kind but assertive training otherwise it ends up the tail wagging the dog, if you see my point. During winter they love to curl up in front of the open fire, but I need to warm my butt too so I get a few grumbles when they are evicted from the fire place.

      Justin Case then you haven't established a dominant position. I live in where they originated from , i grew up with them and have 2 males as of now. They are amazing family dogs and guard dogs and easy too train well at least in my experience. They are amazing guard dogs yet my 85kg old boy is extremely gentle. It comes down too how you train your dog and how is your ability too interpret your dog's next reaction.

      My dog was amazing, one time our female cat had kittens and we walked away, without realising the dog was in there with the kittens, he walked into our room and we saw something in his mouth, we told him to let it go as we caught it. It was a kitten, he loved them so much he didn't want to leave it behind, he was holding it lightly in his mouth but the only problem was his saliva almost drowned th poor kitten.

      MbseedM hi, I suppose it’s more of a personal gauge rather than opinion based. I’m 17 and have grown up with dogs (a German shepherd, Aussie cattle dog, poodle mix and a staffy) and I’ve wanted a boerboel for years now. My best advice is plenty of research on the breed, many different websites I’ve come across are people’s own experiences with the breed and I found that extremely interesting and helpful. A Staffordshire Bull Terrier is a good second dog to get, they’re very sneaky and my Shelby girl is loving and affectionate but a brute when protecting her family. She is also quite naughty but with at least one person home majority of the day that tames her behaviour. Make sure you have a sturdy fence if considering a staffy though as they are escape artists, bred to pull soldiers off horseback’s in the war so they know how to climb and they’re mighty strong. Definitely a good breed to get more experience for owning a boerboel. Hope this helped 😊

      I have a cane corso and done my research before I got her at 7 weeks old and your comment shows you’ve done ZERO research. Her breed the cane corsi was bred as a war dog and would fight alongside roman soldiers and also they were tasked with bringing down lions in small packs of 4 or 5 and then the Roman soldiers would bring it back to the colleseum in Rome from Africa and force it to fight other people or there best dog for the audience and sometimes a cane Corso beat the lion but that was in the times when dogs were semi wild and were fighting in wars against arrows and swords so were extremely tough but even today a cane Corsica will gladly commit suicide and fight a lion in order to give you time to escape

      Typically a pack of them would be used to deal with the lion and that is to harass the lion . Just like the Rhodesian Ridge-back is a lion hunting dog but it isnt a lion fighting dog; furthermore, it works in a pack. Lions would prefer to leave when confronted by a pack of dogs. Lions are smart they know that a human is not far from floppy eared dogs. Floppy ears do not appear in the wild in K-9s so when most predators see those ears they respond differently than when dealing with a prick eared wild K-9.

I'm sure your dog will kill you too and humans. worst enough they made pit Bulls that are almost killing in its sight. children mauled or get killed and adults. other smaller or lesser dogs getting killed and cats by pitbulls. now you want to make something more powerful than a pitbull. what are you? first your ugly and ugly people tend to be stupid and do stupid things cause they have nothing better to do. and this is what I think of these people and vedio, ugly and stupid!!!!
