Description

The Boerboel is a large, powerful breed known for its loyalty and protective instincts. Originally bred as a farm dog in South Africa, they are now popular guard dogs and family companions. Despite their size, they can be gentle and affectionate with their families. However, their strong protective nature and high energy levels require experienced owners who can provide adequate training and socialization. Early socialization is crucial to ensure they are well-adjusted and friendly with other pets and people.
