Aotearoa Boerboels
Who we are
We’re a partnership with over five years of experience working closely with the incredible Boerboel breed. What started as a passion has become our way of life; raising strong, loyal, and well-balanced dogs with heart.
We believe that responsible breeding means going the extra mile so your future companion has the best possible start in life. Health, temperament, and ethical breeding are the foundation of everything we do. Our goal is to raise dogs that not only look the part, but live long, happy, and healthy lives. We care deeply for every dog we raise by maintaining and nurturing them daily to ensure they thrive physically and emotionally. Our dogs are part of our family, and we treat them with the respect and give them the attention they deserve.
While we stay true to the traditional Boerboel breeding standards, we also embrace the breed’s beautiful diversity. Including unique lines like our stunning chocolate girl, Kali, who brings something truly special to our family and program.
At the end of the day, we’re more than breeders! We are true dog lovers doing what we love, and we’re proud to share our passion with others who feel the same.

What we believe in
Embark DNA tests
We use Embark DNA testing to ensure the health and genetic integrity of our Boerboels. This advanced testing screens for over 200 genetic conditions, helping us make responsible breeding decisions and avoid passing on preventable health issues.
Heritage Bloodlines
We’re proud of the bloodlines we work with — carefully selected for health, temperament, and structure. These records reflect generations of responsible breeding and help us preserve the integrity of the Boerboel breed.
Natural Nutrition
Raw feeding provides balanced, species-appropriate nutrition that helps maintain healthy coats, strong muscles, and optimal digestion. It’s a natural choice that aligns with what dogs are biologically built to eat — and our pack thrives on it!
