It is with a heavy heart that I am looking for the right home for Champ, a 3-year-old male South African Boerboel weighing approximately 120 pounds.

Champ is current on his vaccinations. He is an intact male and has never been bred or been with a female dog. Anyone interested in breeding him would be responsible for completing the appropriate veterinary examinations, temperament evaluation and breed-specific health testing before considering him for breeding.

Champ is current on his vaccinations. He is more reserved and less immediately friendly than Ace, so he may need time, patience and proper introductions before becoming comfortable with someone new. Once he trusts his handler, he can be a loyal companion.

Champ is not accustomed to crowds or very busy environments. He would do best in a calm, structured home with an experienced, confident owner who understands Boerboels, mastiffs or other large guardian breeds.

Because of Champ’s size, strength and protective nature, he will not be placed with just anyone. Preference will be given to someone who:

* Has experience with large guardian breeds * Has a secure home and properly fenced yard * Can confidently handle a 120-pound dog * Will give him time to adjust and build trust * Can provide training, exercise and regular veterinary care * Does not regularly place him in crowded or chaotic environments

A reasonable rehoming fee applies to help ensure serious and responsible inquiries only. Champ will not be given away for free.

Serious inquiries only. His safety and long-term well-being are my highest priorities.
