Adopt Me: 6-Month-Old Boerboel Mastiff Puppy!
Meet Sam, a sweet 6-month-old Boerboel Mastiff puppy looking for a fresh start and a loving forever home! This adorable pup was confiscated from her breeder through no fault of her own and is now ready to find a family that will give her the love and care she deserves.
Boerboels, originally from South Africa, are known for their loyalty, strength, and devotion to their families. Bred to guard farms and livestock, they are natural protectors but also incredibly affectionate and loyal to their human pack. Despite their large size, Boerboels are surprisingly agile and gentle, making them great family companions when properly trained and socialized.
At just 6 months old, Sam has plenty of playful energy and curiosity, with a friendly disposition toward people and other dogs. She’s making good progress on basic obedience and has the potential to thrive with continued training. Her strong protective instincts will also develop as she grows, so she’ll need a family that is experienced with large breeds and is committed to consistent training.
Key Info About Sam:
• Age: 6 months
• Breed: Boerboel Mastiff
• Background: Confiscated from breeder, ready for a fresh start
• Temperament: Playful, loving, and protective
• Training: Learning basic commands, great potential with consistent training
