Our Breeding Philosophy
Premier Boerboel Breeders in Indiana
Located on a working farm in Indiana about an hour north of Indianapolis, we are known as premiere Boerboel breeders here in the USA and abroad. We also breed Wagyu, Wangus, and Limousine cattle as well as the occasional litter of Euroline Maine Coon cats!
We stepped into the “owned by a Boerboel” world and fell in love after many years of closely following the breed. We have been serious breeders for over 37 years, but quickly fell head first into a Boerboel obsession after purchasing our first puppy in 2014. We have had many dogs over the years, but never one even remotely close to the Boerboel. They are the ideal dog for us as they seamlessly change from living room floor ornaments and babysitters, to serious family protectors. Our dogs are gentle with children and fine with visitors when in our presence, but they put a whole new spin on the definition of guardian.
We searched far and wide before importing over our foundation stock, all of which were very carefully selected from some of the top producing kennels in the world. While everyone enjoys looking at a big gorgeous dog, our primary focus is producing healthy dogs with a true Boerboel temperament. First and foremost our dogs are true farm dogs. Health is also key to us, and we work diligently to ensure that we produce a dog with the health needed to support the temperament for years to come. The fact that they are easy on the eyes is just an added bonus!
