My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

This adorable pup was confiscated from their breeder through no fault of their own and is now ready to find a family that will give them the love and care they deserve.



 



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, Ronnie has plenty of playful energy and curiosity, with a friendly disposition toward people and other dogs. They’re making good progress on basic obedience and have the potential to thrive with continued training. Their strong protective instincts will also develop as they grow, so they’ll need a family that is experienced with large breeds and is committed to consistent training.



 



Key Info About Ronnie:



 



    •   Age: 6 months



    •    Breed: Boerboel Mastiff



    •    Background: Confiscated from breeder, ready for a fresh start

Boerboels are known to form deep bonds with their families, and Ronnie is no exception! They’re eager to find a home where they can grow, learn, and love. If you’re looking for a loyal and protective companion, Ronnie is waiting for you.



is up to date on vaccinations and is spayed or neutered. (puppies under the age of 6 months may not be sterilized prior to adoption, if this is the case your adoption coordinator will discuss the process with you).



To adopt or learn more about: , you must fill out an adoption application. To find the application, visit our website: WWW.SANDYPAWSRESCUE.COM ** PLEASE READ: If a dog/puppy is listed, then s/he is currently available for adoption. Their information is correct to the best of our abilities and the information we have been given as of the day of posting. In some cases this dog may be pending an adoption already, and their profile has not been updated yet. Please note, SPR does not guarantee the breed of any dog or puppy unless stated otherwise. All breeds listed are educated best estimates by transferring shelter staff, our volunteers or our vets. The dog may have some genetic material of an American Staffordshire Terrier (pit bull). The dogs are usually mixes of many breeds, making them the All American MUTT. Our dogs are rescued from various situations (kill-shelters, owner surrenders, strays, etc). It is most likely that both their parents were strays and mixes of some sort.



If you are interested in this dog, you MUST submit an application. Sandy Paws Rescue does not a have a public shelter in Mass, so there is no building you can visit without an appointment. Our dogs live in private foster homes or boarding kennels down south until adopted, and foster care homes through out MV, Cape Cod and other parts of MA. A majority of our dogs are adopted/spoken for prior to transport and release from state mandated isolation. To learn more about our rescue, adoption fees, and procedures, review the list of FAQ’s on our website at WWW.SANDYPAWSRESCUE.COM



**The FIRST step in adopting an animal from our rescue is to submit a completed adoption application.
