I pray this "working breed" does not have their "workability" traits bred out bye these "show" people...

Dogumentary TV is killing it with these videos, they just keep getting better and better, the quality and work put in on these productions is amazing, I am taking a lot of inspiration from you dude, I just started a small channel for my bullies and frenchies and for sure am keeping an eye on your videos to show me how its done dude. Subbed, recommended your channel on mine and I hit that alarm bell. . Defo one of the top channels on youtube. Keep up the good work.

Who else if from south Africa? 🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦 Proud south African in the building!!!! The only breed that matters. I grew up with these dogs and I must say, they are very loving dogs 😍!!! I approve this message!!

Thank you so much😍 you should also do all about living with a boerboel

My question is these breeds have been around for a long time and the AKC just took them in.. who gives them the right to give a standard on a dog that they just recognized?

Just saw a Boerboel this weekend and was blown away by the gentleness of this breed. Temperament was amazing as my kids climbed all over this massive dog. Definitely will be purchasing one soon.

While I'm no expert in the boerboel specifically, this is a more generalized response to all the comments on these videos on these types of breeds saying that the dogs are "not big enough". It is confusing to me; these are supposed to be working dogs, and dogs that are bred just to be massive lack the athleticism and stamina to do their job. Of course I don't appreciate what the show ring has done to some working breeds, like the German Shepherd and their deformed backs, but to say that the dogs are not correct simply because they are not massive and chunky is counterintuitive to what the breed needs to do their job... Not saying they should be delicate, but there is a reason for the type of athletic build that working line dogs have, that is neither extreme. I have no more respect for breeders trying to win a new record of biggest dog of their breed than I do for breeders who breed for any other impractical extreme. Working dogs especially need balance, and even people who love their dogs to be huge should recognize that. If you do want a huge dog just because it's your flex to have a huge dog, you do you, they are out there; but don't pretend that breeding for hugeness is what is best for the breed.

You are wonderful! Thank you for sharing your immense knowledge about this extraordinary breed. My beautiful Boerboel, my big girl Dea, died suddenly and unexpectedly from Mast Cell Cancer 2 years ago. I am still crying every night. She was my best friend, and my family's guardian! She even protected me from danger 3 times, including a potential break-in. My darling took her last breaths in my arms, but what broke my heart the most was that she insisted on giving me "kisses." That is what love is. R.I.P. my darling Dea. I miss you, I love you, I wish so badly that you were still here with me.

I LOVE when you get articulate, knowledgeable people to do these breed overviews. Solid solid work, keep it up!!!

From looking at this video You can already see the difference between AKC dogs and traditional boerboels. The AKC dogs have longer legs, tighter flews and more angulation on their stifles. Further, the AKC restriction on Irish pied dogs is strange. Also, some of the breeds this woman mentioned that allegedly went into the creation of this breed are highly suspicious to me. The AKC and it’s followers have ALWAYS ruined the look and ability of breed after breed. There is no reason to believe that the boerboel would be any different. No. Thank you. I will stick to dogs from other registries.

Thank you so much for this.. ive watched every boerboel clip u had and on KZfaq and this one really convinced me to get one but i want one that looks like a boerboel not a great dane face.. thx for everything u do..

I have two Boerboels, and they're probably the most loving, protecting, and all-around amazing breed of dog I've ever met. They're just wonderful

LMAO 🤣🤣🤣I know it's the correct terminology, but I was not ready for the "And the bitches..."

Glad to see another video like this. I missed them. I'd really like to see more Neo and English Mastiff content!

Akc is going to end up fucking up this breed.

I used to see this lady by my old job walk one of these beautiful dogs on the westside of 72nd great looking dog and she was definitely the pack leader.

AKC standard is trash and not to benefit the Boerboel

They seem to have a very loose breed standard. It seems to allow working dogs to thrive without setting a clear divide between show and working dogs but still a very odd loose standard. Especially for it being recognized by the ridiculousness that is the AKC.

I dont like it when they start going on about this should be 9/10 of this and not more than 27” BS. Form should follow function, not the other way around. I don’t believe in such strict physical standards

I own a boerboel,without knewing it was a boerboel in the beginning..She is the love of my life

Awesome Boerboel video! Getting my first Boerboel in June!

I really enjoyed this. Content excellence yet again 🙂

Here early before the good and bad comments. I'm in a group on Facebook and kyle isn't liked by everyone in the boerboel community, but her dogs are awesome. #dogumentarytv

Best breed imo pleased you've done another video on them 🖤

Thanks for the video am not a really fan of this breed but i love learning diffrent type of breeds and these dogs are amazing

I had the boerboel in 98 we were some of the first people in the states to have the boerboel. They had yellow eyes they were extremely athletic big but not overly big. Black wasn’t a excepted color i kno all about the breed and have papers from 98

A good boerboel (strictly working dogs)will not get on in a showring.

Best to get a Borboel from a Working Line and not a breeder that focuses specifically on "conformation." You want a "pretty statue" this may be the breeder for you; you want a working dog go to a breeder that works their dogs thus proving their true temperament.

She sounds like she's reading a presentation

I had considered shipping one over from home, but this breeder actually knows what she is on about and and her dogs look very good indeed. Finding a genuine breeder is very difficult, but I’m grateful that I clicked on this. Thank you.

Proud to own a boerbol couple 🤩

Good content bro 👍👍 luv how she explained the boerbole as a breed with the AKC and it's other clubs 👌 what she said about destroying the breed is exactly what's going on with the Am. Bully.... 🙏😔 👊😎

This won’t be the first breed standard the AKC absolutely destroys. I would never waste a cent on registering or competing my dogs with them. Absolute bunch of muppets!

Love the videos been watching for a few years now. Can we get a video on chow chows?

As puppies my chi and a puppy Boerboel connected like magnets and screamed when they saw the other owners car coming to the dog park. Like teenagers in deep love, they always dived towards each other, but stopped 2 meters away and both did a silly happy-dance for a while. Then they roamed in a 30-35 meter radius from us owners, exploring things together and having a lovely time. Once they spooned while 3-4 dogs where busy whith other stuff, which broke our hearts. If someone my dog didn't like entered the park (like, 3 times in 2 years) he'd bark and holler at them until his big friend ran up real close on the intruders. Soft and tender, but still makes anyone think twice before making any threats. I'm in serious considerations of getting a Boerbol now. I just like both kinds of dogs, and it's kinda nice having one alerter and one enforcer. Just in case.

The boerboel is a protected land race in South Africa , thus the SABBS was required by law to provide DNA evidence that Black Boerboels are in fact boerboels. The AKCs refusal to acknowledge black boerboels is sheer stubbornness and nothing to do with the betterment of the breed

"so heavy that it can't perform its duties" The labrador standard has this requirement as well, yet we have what we have with them in the show ring.

Really Really Great video. Thank you so much.

I agree with being an experience dog owner for this dog breed they’re so big and very powerful also smart.

Thank you for all the advice 🫶🙏

For a very longtime Boerboel was the top of my list for a Service Dog because i fell in love with the breed . my family friend had two boerboels, and i adored them. i ended up deciding other breeds would be better for service work specifically. My top breeds are Dogo and Newfoundland - I have to Dogo is far above anyone else

Great video :) Boerboels are awesome, I have a 10 month old black boerboel so I know they exist regardless of recognition of kennel clubs. She is currently weighing in at 45kg and is 23 inches at withers. She owns the sofa because her bed is too small already lol. Interestingly, she has quite brittle nails and is on a supplement to help. I wonder if other Boerboel owners have this issue or is it a random genetic throwback?

Good dogs tho but Not a true specimens.. The real boerboels here where im from in Africa are much bigger and are build a bit different thats just how we know them and why they were used for protection against lions and stuff because of their size..

Best man, best Training ever. Thanks a lot🤩🤩🤩👍

Wow the American standard has it fucked up our dogs so much, she described the all the wrong aspects of how they should be. Shame and sad to hear from South Africa

Yes ma guy finally✊🏾

The dogs in this video should be called "american" boerboel! They look nothing like the dog my neighbor had!

Thanks Kyle...

This is a amazing powerful dog. I hope the dog breaders are very cautious who the sell this dogs too. Very dangerous in the hands of a unexperienced dog owner. This dogs should stay in the farm.

I love your videos!! I was wondering If you‘ve ever heard about the breed „Broholmer“ I‘d really appreciate some content about them!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

Thanks for this video Zeke, love looking back and seeing my BBs in your videos. Great story and accurate content.

The DNA results are being misinterpreted. American bulldogs didnt exist in their current form back then and neither did boxers. They are the closest living relatives of the dogs the DNA is reading. Those being the old white english and Spanish bulldog/iberian mastiffs

It will be awesome if you guys talk about the Estrela Mountain dog 😁😁😁

These are the smallest boerbulls I've ever seen. Please come to Namibia and South Africa 😂😂😂😂 now those are Boerbulls.

Boerboel and the South African Mastiff are now two different breeds. South African Mastiff is a trademark by the Ysterberg group of breeders in South Africa.

She do the best on breaking down the Boerboel breed 😃

What's up Zeke?? I missed this one. I don't give much thought to what the AKC thinks. Don't care about any club that restricts any color that was in a dog decades before the dog was in the club. But I'm not a show dog person anyway. The clubs seem to take a good dog then make it look the way they want it to look and call it the same dog. Don't drink the KOOKOOlayed. LOL!!

She know's nothing about a boerboel,

Great video never been this early #5

The reason for black boerboels not being accepted is that the black(k gene) is dominant in boerboels. So if black dogs ard allowed to breed, the other colours wil disappear. Please help us to preserve this beatiful dog race. Much love from south africa

AKC has lost all credibility. They are just money grabbers.

Amazing dogs 😍

I was watching the video uninterrupted and focused until 7:37 😳

I chuckled a little bit when she said the bitches . I know that what they called females dogs just in case someone writes in the comments. I was watching something on tv and was caught off guard.

Beast. Love my Italian mastiff!!

I love this dog

Boerboels are probably the healthiest big dog breed exactly cause they are still working dogs. All the health problems this lady talks about are typical of extremely bad bred boerboels. Mine, wich is not one of the best, is 6 years old, she lives outdoor and go to vet once a year just to get vaccins. For me the best breed for home protection, very tollerant with children and friends. Very intimidating with strangers intruders

Black "Boerboels" don't normally have that gorgeous square blocky head. They look like they've had a black Labrador jump into the mix. I absolutely adore my Boerboel ❤

Lost me at “akc standpoint”

Documentary, a suggestion for your next, mastiff dogumentary feature the Broholmer breed.

I have a blue Boerboel Mel and he is the most greatest dog ever

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:) series idea, A Day With ( INSERT BREED )

AKC settings standards for a dog they just recognizing it? Nah

how to make a working dog into a show dog - give it to the americans im being hyperbolic ofc chill lots of great dogs in the US ofc - but you get what I mean - I got a tonn of examples - like the Irish setter a working dog turned into a joke in america - not all, chill again

Akc has ruined just about every dog breed. Thi lady obviously does not know what she is talking about. also she is alright with the boerbel weighting 180 still to heavy. This breed should be very athletic in order to perform in extreme environments

These are real working size boerboels. Those giant 200lb boerboels can't work a day on a farm

Very cool video

These are LONG LEG Boerboels not Boerboels. Two different dogs.

My favorite ❤️❤️❤️

Is being recognized by the AKC a good thing or a bad thing? Look what they did to the bulldog

It's funny how specific we humans are about each dog breed and use biological traits to guide competition rules etc yet we can't agree what is a woman 😂

AKC ruined dog breeds

The boerboel they had in the show ring looks pretty nice

She's real breeder - her dogs are in right weight, like they should be, because they are working dogs, not like many boerboels around 90kg (they are overweight, only for look aspect). And what i really appreciate and respect is fact, that she didn't cropped ears and didn't docked tail, which is very popular in USA and fortunately banned in many countries in Europe. Many breeders have their dog with crooped ears (presa canario, cane corso, pitbull) and with docked tails (like other breeders doing with their boerboels), when their dogs are show ones not working dogs. Love that woman and breed, one day i will get my own Boerboel :)

And 'The Bitches' . I'm sorry 😂😂😂. The world has currupted me...

Its funny because the boerboel looks like the Old bullmastiff from around 1900- 1930

I just recently purchased a black one. Im the only person in the town with a black boerboel.

My Boerboel is a beautiful example of the breed

Interesting...🤔.....

Great video! Don’t agree with the breeding philosophy or the AKC influences. More in the Brad Anderson camp but beautifully shot and put together as always! Thanks so much 🙏👍🏻

Can you make a “Living with...” video on the Caucasian Shepherd or the Fila Brasilerio think those would be great vids.

Yeah sorry but i can't help to intervene here. American Bulldog is not mixed in the breed i can tell you that (the most rediculous thing i ever heard about Boerboele). Secondly she hasn't got a clue when she calls em wardogs. At that time there was no such thing as the Boerboel as it is in current form. But hey, good promotional talk. Boerboels are not prone to many health problems unless you are linebreeding (inbreeding, normal for FCI or AKC dogs). This woman probably does linebreeding and is already making excuses to justify the health problems her dogs will have. Warning people against bad breeders when she clearly is one of em. Please get your ass to SA and see actual Boerboele m'am. You are gonna feel silly about this whole monologue after the visit.

What are your opinions on finding a Boerboel Rescue as opposed to going to a breeder? I would love to give a good dog a loving home but on the other hand I want something genetically sound that I could raise on my own.

@10:06 she stated "oh you have nice dog, I have a nice dog let's breed them. And that's how a breed gets ruined" she said that after saying it took 10? Breeds to make a Boerboel. It's people like her who ruins the breed.this is a good dog and you breed dogs with other good dogs not smaller dogs not radical wild dogs others good stable dogs equivalent to size. I spoke with her or the other lady one time really disappointing I have dogs from the best bloodlines in South Africa great breeder that sold them to me black iron boerbles don't talk to that lady here on KZfaq she and her friend are nuts

This video is a MUST see for anyone (especially Americans) who have an interest is these amazing family members. The one shown in the show is probably the closet to perfection I have ever seen. Too many American breeders have ruined their dogs as they breading them too big. There in no need to try getting them bigger than the one shown here, trust me that dog will destroy those overgrown beasts, because though it is lighter it is almost the same strength, but it is more agile, an over sized BOERBOEL is ugly.

Shame but I've already seen this gorgeous breed being breed too heavy and looks sloppy,,,this is unforgettable this dog should be big hard of body tight muscles not fat and loose again a breed spoiled because of shows just like the poor bulldog and bull terrier just to name a couple of other breeds that's been ruined by man

Make a video on border terriers please!!

American Bred boerboels are friendly......too friendly.lol

so many rules just to be a dog..........sounds a bit fucked up to me.
