1 Boy Boerboel Puppies for sale in Chester, Cheshire West and Chester

The Boerboel, is a Mastiff-like dog native to South Africa where these large dogs were bred to work on farms and as guard dogs. Translated, their name means "farm dog." They are very impressive looking dogs, and although imposing, they boast of being gentle giants as long as they are well socialised and properly trained from a young age. For this reason, they are definitely not a good choice for first-time owners. However, the Boerboel is a good choice for someone who is familiar with the needs and training requirements of the breed or this type of very large Mastiff dog and who has enough indoor and outdoor space for them to roam freely.

FAQs

Are Boerboels legal in the UK?

Yes, Boerboels are legal in the UK and are not included in the list of banned breeds under the UK Dangerous Dogs Act or its recent amendments. While they are powerful mastiff-type dogs, they are not subject to breed-specific legislation in the UK. However, owners must always ensure their Boerboel is under proper control to comply with legal requirements.

Is a Boerboel a good family dog?

Boerboels can make excellent family dogs when properly trained and socialised. They are known to be loyal, protective, and intelligent, making them good companions for families experienced with large breeds. Due to their size and guarding instincts, early socialisation and firm leadership are essential to ensure they behave well around children and other pets.

Why are Boerboels banned in some countries?

Boerboels are banned or restricted in certain countries mainly because of concerns related to their large size, strength, and protective nature, which can be perceived as a risk to public safety. Some jurisdictions apply breed-specific legislation targeting mastiff-type or bully breeds, often as a precautionary measure against incidents involving powerful guard dogs.

Is a Boerboel stronger than a Pitbull?

Generally, Boerboels are larger and physically stronger than Pitbulls due to their mastiff heritage, which includes greater muscle mass and bite force. While Pitbulls are also strong dogs relative to their size, Boerboels possess a more robust build, making them typically more powerful overall. However, strength alone does not determine a dog's temperament or suitability as a pet.
