Description
The Boerboel is a formidable and self-assured guardian, their very presence commanding respect. They are deeply devoted to their families, showcasing a protective instinct that runs bone-deep. With their chosen humans, they are often surprisingly gentle giants, enjoying cuddles and quiet companionship. However, their imposing stature and unwavering loyalty mean they need clear, consistent guidance from a confident owner. Their historical role as farm protectors in South Africa instilled a natural wariness of strangers, requiring careful socialization. A Boerboel thrives when given a purpose, whether it's guarding their home or simply being their family's steadfast shadow.
