When I was out this afternoon, I saw this guy walking this fabulous dog - naturally I stopped and asked the breed. Do we have any members on here with this breed ? Or any information please.
They are beautiful aren't they? OH wouldn't let me have one I love mastiffs though I think there is only one breeder so far in the country, based in Cheshire...there was when I was looking anyways. You might have to go a long way to find another Boer Boel owner!
He was stunning - big and beautiful I think he said he was only 14 months old too. He did say how much he paid ( I didn't ask ) and I was totally gobsmacked!!!!!
Never had one myself but a very good friend of mine had a couple a few years ago. Trying to remember if he bred from them but the grey cells are struggling at this time of day! I thought they were really majestic animals - absolutely superb guard dogs. And SO powerful!!!! You could imagine one in the wrong hands being a potentiall nasty situation!
Phenomenal strength I would imagine, but this guy was so laid back - in my description not unsimilar to say the great dane.
Yes, very impressive animal. Only seen one on TV on one of the Cesar Milan episodes - he belonged to a singer and was pretty much kenneled all day bar some days when the dog walker came as the singer was scared of him. The dog walker finally adopted him though so that was a happy outcome for him in the end.
My boyfriends mate has some. Well, I think he does because he described the dog, said it began with a "B" and when I suggested Boer Boel, he said thats what it was. I'd never heard of them until I saw the Cesar episode with Patti La Belle and I agree, they are beautiful dogs.
Just double checked with my husband - our friend has bred Boerboels in the past although now only has his bitch left. She is a lovely thing - really loves their kids. As i said, a phenomenal guard dog (guards their stables) and a wonderful family dog but the power in them means they need a really good owner. Not exactly a first time owners dog
What on earth was the eye roll for?! I was only adding additional information that i though people might find interesting.
There is a breeder in Lanarkshire, Saw one of her pups at my ringcraft, he was lovely but a bit of a handfull
My absolute favourite breed - I love them, but have never been luck enough to meet one :-( Would love to meet one in the flesh
That's ok just PLEASE try to stop being defensive! It makes communication very difficult at times. We're mostly friendly here
