Boerboel Dogs & Puppies in Tanzania
Boerboel is a South African breed of large working dog, known for its endurance and developed protective instinct.
Boerboel is an athletically built "fighter", with whom it is not scary to walk through the most disadvantaged areas and dark alleys. Capable of fending off any sudden attack in seconds, this fawn Brutal is always alert and ready to defend his master 365 days a year. It will not be easy to get along with a Boerboel: this is a dog-personality that respects the owner not for beautiful eyes, but for real virtues. But if you still won his favor and trust, you can be sure - this is for life.
Boerboels settled in Africa as early as the 17th century, but it is quite possible to trace their history. It is believed that the progenitors of these severe dogs were European Molossians, who emigrated to the southern part of the African continent along with immigrants from Scandinavia. As time went on, the animals interbred with native breeds, as well as other dogs arriving on the main Boerboel Dogs & Puppies in Tanzania land, which became the prerequisite for the birth of the Boerboel clan.At the beginning of the 19th century, the blood of English bulldogs and mastiffs was mixed into the breed's phenotype. The animals were brought with them by the British, who rushed to Cape Town to defend it from the encroachments of Napoleon. Afrikaner farmers also made a modest contribution to the development of the working qualities of Boerboels, selecting only the most assertive and aggressive individuals to protect their farms. This made first-class watchmen and bodyguards out of Boerboels, capable of fighting alone with a whole group of burglars and other lovers of easy money.
The 20th century brought with it wholesale urbanization, and with it the oblivion of the breed. Peasant farms were destroyed, their owners moved with their belongings to close suburbs, so the need for large bodyguard dogs disappeared. Left to themselves, the animals slowly degenerated, so that by the 70s there would not have been a pair of purebred Boerboels in the vicinity of Cape Town.
In the mid-80s, a group of enthusiastic farmers set about restoring the number of animals, for which they had to equip an expedition and comb the length and breadth of the territory of today's South Africa. During the impromptu “tour”, 250 Boerboels were collected, most of which turned out to be mestizos unsuitable for breeding. However, the breeders stubbornly did not give up, and in the end, about 70 animals were able to get registration and permission to mate.
In 1990, the Boerboel Breeders Association was opened in Africa, and in 2004, WWB, the first international organization dealing with breeding and popularization of the breed, began its work in America. Pretty soon, other countries began to be interested in dogs, but the desire of the inhabitants to see tough, impulsive guards in their pets played a cruel joke with Boerboels. Hoping to make animal breeding more profitable, breeders began to cultivate in their wards such traits of character that are in demand among buyers, such as viciousness and aggressiveness. As a result: whole lines of dogs with an unbalanced psyche were born. Denmark was the first to react to this, completely banning the breed for breeding. The Russian authorities were not so categorical, however, in 2011, Boerboels were included in the list of dangerous breeds in our country, falling under the law “On Responsible Treatment of Animals”.
Boerboel is a textured, thoroughly pumped-up "athlete" with an unexpectedly calm and intelligent look. He is a heavyweight and far from a baby (the height of an average male at the withers is 64-70 cm), which gives the impression of an extremely formidable creature, crossing the road of which is literally dangerous to health.
Boerboels have a large, rectangular skull with a flat crown and forehead and a not too sharp stop. The muzzle of the dog is wide, somewhat narrowed towards the tip of the nose. The optimal length of the muzzle is slightly less than ½ the length of the head.
The main weapon of the Boerboel is its teeth, which are strong and strong in representatives of this breed. It is desirable that the dog has a scissor bite, although a direct variant of it, as well as a bite without a waste, are also not considered defects.
The large black nose looks even more massive due to the wide, open nostrils.
The correct Boerboel should have dark brown, widely spaced and pointedly round eyes. Lighter colors of the iris are not very desirable, but q
