Description

The word "boerboel" derives from "boer" word for "farmer". Boerboel thus translates as either "farmer's dog" or "Boer's dog" in Afrikaans. The Boerboel is a perfectly balanced dog with all body parts being in proportion with one another. The head is short, broad, deep, square, is muscular and has well-filled cheeks. The body is extremely muscular, stocky and compact. The skin is thick, loose and well pigmented with moderate wrinkles on the brow when the dog is attentive. This breed was â€�€� and is - kept as watchdogs, as friends, as playmates to children, and as protectors of families. The Boerboel does not retreat from any form of danger. It was originally bred as a watchdog, to look after the homesteads in South Africa.
