Country of Origin: The Boerboel (โfarmerโs dogโ in Afrikaans) originates in South Africa. It is a guard dog which was created by mixing various African and European breeds, possibly including the Bulldog, Bullmastiff, and Rhodesian Ridgeback. By some reports, the Boerboel was brought to South Africa by Jan van Riebeeck, the founder of Cape Town. Boerboels were used to protect diamond mines by the De Beers Corporation and for personal protection by Dutch settlers during British rule. Today, most are bred in South Africa.
Size: The Boerboel has a shoulder height of 64-70 cm (25-28 in) for males and 59-65 cm (23-26 in) for females. Boerboels weigh 70-90 kg (154-200 lbs). They are a big, solid, powerful breed with a distinctive broad (but not oversized), tight skinned head, a muscular neck and shoulders, and flat back. The tail is normally docked. Boerboels have a broad, black muzzle, large nostrils, brown eyes, โVโ-shaped ears, and white teeth which form a scissors bite. Their large head and filled-out face is considered their identifying feature. The Boerboel is a powerful, agile breed with a strong masculine or feminine appearance according to s*x.
