ABOUT US
We are a husband-and-wife team that have moved to the gorgeous Osa Peninsula, Costa Rica. We have both been lifelong dog lovers but became obsessed with the boerboel breed after seeing our first boerboel in 2013. There is something about a 200lb dog that grabs your attention! After many years of research of the breed, health concerns and what we believe to be some of the world's best breeders, we started adding them to our family. All of our dogs are raised in our home, on our acreage where they get to roam most of the day together, with our chihuahua.
We have sourced what we found to be some of the best bloodlines out of South Africa to start our breeding program, so there are finally Boerboles for sale in Costa Rica. Our goals when producing the best of the best include Health, Temperament, Size & Workability.
We have always said that we do not want to produce more boerboels- we want to produce the BEST boerboels you can find!
The Boerboel
The boerboel breed as a whole is what we believe to be one of the most rewarding dog breeds you can own. We have been around many breeds, and many dominant breeds, but none that show innate protecting skills, critical thinking to be able to discern threats, eagerness to learn, family loyalty, love & affection and overall versatility like the boerboel.
Due to the dominate nature of this breed it is crucial that potential owners do their research and ask a lot of questions. Do you have time to properly train and socialize this breed, are you prepared to have a velcro dog that loves to be at your side, do you have adequate housing for a dog of this size and power, do you want a dog that will protect you with his life?
If YES, the sky is the limit on what you can achieve with your boerboel!
I am a Boerboel
Written by Jenny Wells
I am a substantial dog driven by love and loyalty to my nearest and dearest.
I am an impressive figure of strength with my stature, musculature, bearing and demeanour.
I can be the most reliable and loving family companion and a thoroughly determined force of nature if they are threatened.
I can be a clown and I have a sense of humour.
I am smart, make sure you are smarter! I will make decisions if you don’t!
I was created in a school of hard knocks over generations on the farms in South Africa. I am tough, hardy, adaptable and can turn my paw to many uses and tasks.
I require love, attention, good food, guidance and proper accommodation – but most of all I require a responsible owner that will care for me and make time for me.
I don’t like to be left alone for long periods of time and I can be destructive when I get bored.
I am happiest when you are with me.
I eat a lot and my vet bills can be expensive.
I am generally contented but I do require regular exercise and mental stimulation.
I need training to show me how to behave in various situations and let me know how to please you. I respond very well and learn fast with kindness, consistency and food rewards! I don’t respond well to bullying, violence or rough handling.
I am sensitive to your needs and moods. I feel your stress.
I am protective of my family and those I consider my family, I will defend them to my last breath.
I am a Boerboel, you are my life, my love and my world. I am your guardian, your companion and your faithful friend until the last beat of my heart.
I am not just a Boerboel, I am your Boerboel.
