MaeBoerboel consists of my
husband "Jordan" and myself "Danielle". We do not have any
kids as of now, so we want to put our focus on the dogs. I
grew up with dogs such as Newfoundlands and German Shepard. I
have always been a big dog lover, so my mother made sure that
I married someone who knew eventually what they were getting
into. As of now our house hold consists of 4 Boerboels, 2
Cats, and a three legged Chihuahua. We thought it was time to
find a nice quite place in the country for our dogs to be able
to roam free (instead of only having less than half an acre of
a backyard.) We ended up purchasing 4 acres of wooded land with
a pond, and are planning on moving out there the beginning of
this Spring '08.
We came across the South African Boerboel in 2005. Then with
all the research we did, we picked our Boerboel breeder.
Splitrock Skannon, was our first boy! It was amazing how
everything that we were looking for in the Boerboel, they were
able to find the right dog for us. He has left plenty of
memories in our hearts and its sad to say but Skannon is
no longer with us. It breaks my heart every time I think
about him.
So after a lot of discussions with my husband, we came to the
conclusion that we want to help breed a better Boerboel. We
have our goals and expectations of what we want to produce.
However no one can predict what they are going to produce, but
by narrowing down the choices for the perfect match through
the pros and cons between the two dogs, we can have a better
idea of what the out come is going to be. We also feel that
it is important to keep a pup back from your breedings to see
whether or not the breeding was a success. Which would
include hip testing, the SABT appraisal system and to see if
they are temperamentally sound. We do not take it for granted
that these dogs are going to be placed into loving homes, so
we want to ONLY better this breed to make your new companion a
happy and healthy dog! |
