Tuebor Boerboels - Life with original working Boerboels
We breed Boerboels with strong character, clear purpose and deep roots in the original working lines. To us, a Boerboel is not just about appearance - it's a balanced, functional and loyal companion.

The Story Behind Tuebor Boerboels
The kennel name Tuebor Boerboels was granted to us by the breed association in August 2013, and the internationally recognized FCI kennel name Tuebor was officially approved in April 2015.
"Tuebor" is Latin and loosely translates to "I guard" or "I protect" – and that is exactly what the Boerboel does best.
"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?"
-The Mastiffs. The big game hunters. Colonel David Hancock MBE

For us, this breed is not just a physical mold, not a collection of show titles, and not a memory from decades past printed on paper.
The Boerboel is part of our life – in our everyday routines, in our decisions, in our yard, and in our family. The Boerboel is not an easy breed, nor should it be....
What It Means to Be a Breeder

It's not just about raising puppies.
It's coming home from a night shift just as the rest of the family is waking up.
You feed the puppies, let the adult dogs out, and check that everything is okay. When your partner leaves for work and the kids go to daycare, the house quiets down.
