Being a breeder isn’t all puppy snuggles and cute photos. ❤️

Today was spent putting up a brand-new fence for our puppy play yard! It’s a lot of hard work, sweat, planning, and investment, but seeing our puppies have a safe place to run, play, explore, and build confidence makes it all worth it.

Slowly but surely, we’re making improvements here at SATA Kennels, and we’re excited for our current and future puppies to enjoy their new play space!

TEMPERAMENT: THE FOUNDATION OF THE BOERBOEL

When discussing Boerboels, much attention is often given to size, substance, head type, and appraisal scores. While these characteristics are important, they should never overshadow the trait that truly defines the breed: temperament.

The Boerboel was developed as a functional farm dog and family guardian. Its value was not measured solely by physical power, but by its ability to assess situations calmly, remain loyal to its family, and respond appropriately when protection was genuinely required.

A correct Boerboel should possess confidence without unnecessary aggression, courage without recklessness, and a natural instinct to remain close to its owner. These behavioural traits are what historically distinguished the Boerboel from other large working breeds.

As breeders, we have a responsibility to preserve not only the phenotype of the breed but also the unique behavioural characteristics that made the Boerboel successful in its original role. A dog may possess exceptional structure and impressive physical attributes, but if temperament is compromised, the breed itself is compromised.

The future of the Boerboel depends on selection decisions that prioritise stable, reliable, and predictable temperament alongside sound structure and health.

What role do you believe temperament should play in modern Boerboel breeding programs?
