The Boerboel is a breed known for its love and loyalty to its family.

With its strong and muscular appearance, it is a reliable and loving companion and, when necessary, an excellent guard dog. It has a sense of humor and intelligence and requires attention, love and proper care.

The Boerboel, or South African Mastiff, was originally bred to guard farms and be a versatile, hardy working dog. It is happiest with its owner and requires regular exercise and mental stimulation. Training is really important for this breed, as they respond very well to consistent training, are eager to please and learn new things quickly.

The Boerboel can read its owner's moods and needs really well, so if necessary, it will also protect and defend its loved ones. It is a loyal companion to its owner until the end. 

The kennel name Tuebor Boerboels was granted to us by the breed association in 08/2013.
The FCI granted the kennel name "Tuebor" in 04/2015.

"Tuebor" is Latin and loosely translates to "I guard / I protect".
And that's what Boerboels are great at!

"When a type of dog loses its historic role,
then the future of the breed is threatened.
Breeders of the Mastiff breeds MUST produce dogs
that are capable of carrying out their historic role,
even if they are not required to do so.
The breed history gave us the breed;
the breed history must be our guide in perpetuating the breed.
What alternative path can we follow?"
