Thanks. They get quite a bit of exercise. I own draft horses and I exercise them for 4 miles just about everyday. The dogs always come with me

Great to see some working Boerboels here. Good strong looking dogs. How do they get along being both male and brothers? Do you get many spats?

They get along good for the most part. They still try to be dominant with each other at times. They got into a couple of fights when they were younger. I kinda took care of it then. If they start to get puffy with each other all I have to do is raise my voice a little and they'll walk away from each other

Yeah the Boerboel does not like their human to talk loud or be cross with them. Even the most intense BB will drop his head and eyes if his human is angry with him.

I have been watching my young boy Odi for the past 3 weeks getting pretty puffy at my older mixed males and have had to correct him a few dozen times. He is guarding his babies which I understand but he needs to mellow out. I even caught him preventing the puppymama from getting to the pups once. She gave him a good shove and them I grabbed him by the loose skin and took him for a talking to. Funny to see a 150 lb dog get all slinky and low.

Hi Jeff 1

Good to see the boys looking so good.
What sort of weight are they now?
My Ronnie is around 70Kg at the moment - but I think he will fill out more yet.
Yours look a fair bit heavier.
He has some soreness with his rear leg/s which I am getting looked into - so I'm keeping him fairly trim until that is sorted.
Have you seen Hugo on Mark's site?
87Kg and 14 months I think :)

Regards

Danny

Hey Dan. I just weighed them last week on my horse scales. Sid weighed 168 lbs. and Si weighed 161 lbs. I seen pictures of Hugo,he's very big. To big for what I want but still very nice. I like his father Tuff. Send me some pictures of Ronnie. I have a new email address - sidandsi@icloud.com Thanks Jeff

Hi Jeff
It's just as well you have horse scales!
I'm terrible with tech stuff but have tried to send you pics of Ronnie to your email.

I've tried here also - let's see if they come through.
