North Queensland Boerboels is a Townsville based breeding kennel. Our prime goal is to continue breeding high quality Boerboels.
This is the National Champion of South Africa 2019. We have purchased two lots of semen from him, just waiting on the import. Our initial mating plan for this purchase has fallen through and we are currently looking to purchase a new bitch pup that will complement this guys attributes.
Wow check out this fella. We have purchased two lots of semen from this guy and will be using one in the near future.
I have been advised from senior breeders that Imani's x-ray scores are good. So the breeding story of Imani is she has appraised well, health scores are good and she is now ready to start breeding. Her temperament is a bit difficult to asses at this stage as she is fairly new to us and is still finding her place with the other dogs, all indications so far suggest her temperament will be sound. Next step is to find a suitable Boerboel stud as I plan to use Gus later on. I'm also looking at another female pup from down south who has solid and awesome parents and bloodlines. She will be ready to fly up close to the end of the year. She will be my super special baby girl for X-mas.
Imani has been accepted by the other two. It was a surprisingly easy transition. She still lacks a bit of confidence but her progression has been awesome and pain free (so far).
Our new bitch Imani is settling in well.
After a good 12 months break we are gearing back up to start breeding again. I have a new bitch in the yard which we bought on the weekend. Im also on the lookout for an additional stud and another bitch to progress with. I still have Gus and Rosie and plan to expand our numbers on our new property which we will be moving into in two months time. I plan to have one litter this year, if everything works out I should have some Christmas puppies. I'll start getting some updated photo's and video's posted in the next day or two.
Great video from Boerboel Australia Inc that explains a bit about the breed.
Went a bit snap happy......
Gus as a young pup and Lexi. Similar markings.
This little cracker, gave her a toy to play with and 20 seconds later she's found a shoe. Told her no and she tells me off.
Little Lexi arrived late last night. She is such a cutie...
A few recent photo's of the clan.
Little Lexi, she's a cutie......
Little Lexi, she is a couple of weeks away from becoming part of the NQB pack...

Meet little Alexis, our latest addition to the NQB Kennel.
4.30 crazy play time.
Gus after a bath, couldn’t care less.
Rosie isn’t very happy about being bathed either
Zoe is not a fan of bath day....
Made the mistake of inviting them up for a smodge. Got covered in fur and then got kicked out of my own bed. Damn big beautiful dawgs.
Gus as a pup. I lost a bit of irrigation hose when he went through his chewing stage. Im guessing the owners of last years litter are going through the same stage now.
New dog house and cage. It’s the next addition to the breeding process.
It’s a bit more difficult to walk three but we are getting there.
Gday Everyone. Im keen to see the pups from last year. Could our puppy owners please post some standing photo's and current weights sometime this weekend. It would be good to compare each others pups and Im keen to see how they are growing. Also Bruce had a eye lid roll in and had to have minor surgery to correct it. Next time your at the vet it may be worth mentioning it so they can check your pup. Ive learnt that Its a problem that can pop up once in awhile. BAI have now made DNA testing a a lot more affordable so I will be DNA health screening any furture litters
We had an afternoon gonk and this is how I found him. Snoring his head off.
Plans for a meet and greet on Easter Saturday 31 Mar 18. Its a good opportunity to see the brothers and sister, I'll be there with my three. The president of Boerboel Australia Inc, Mr Cory Buckingham will also be there. The date is not locked in yet so if your interested but cant make the date let me know and we might change it to a later date. Its a very basic affair, we will meet up down the Townsville strand, grab a take away coffee, a short walk along the strand and then hang out under the shade. Both myself and Cory will make ourselves available for any questions you or the general public may have. Part of the purpose is to promote the breed as its not very well known, but Im also looking forward to seeing the pups and to find out any issues and to provide advice.
Moby from last years litter. Green boy. Looking good at six months.
Zoe’s meal routine. She is growing well up to 35kg.
Breakfast time at NQB.
Lazy rainy days are good for sleeping.
Just a reminder to those who have a pup from me. If you want to rehome your dog please let me know prior. There are some people who want to use our breed for undesirable reason and all BIA members are doing our best to avoid them. One individual will never get another pup from me and Ive informed BIA so hopefully they wont get one from anyone else.

Rosie is in season so I’ve had to keep her separated from Gus

Soaking up some sun.
Big afternoon, all puppies had a bath and their nails clipped. We had a big play in the outside pen and then we had a play inside the house. Im starting to teach them the word 'no' and 'good' and not to bite me. Orange boy got me in the middle of my shorts. Rosie has decided they are ready to come off milk, I think she's had enough, its been coming for a few days now . She's done an awesome job and has earnt some much deserved time off. Gus is still mothering them he did his best to follow them around the house and even had a play with them while laying down. Fatty loves going for rides on the recliner chair, white girl is fascinated with the dish washer.
It’s very wet outside so I thought I’d let them loose inside. What a mess they made poops and wee everywhere. They seemed to have fun.
Hanging outside with eight Boerboels.
Chilling outside with the pups.
Day 27 The puppies are looking awesome, Mum and Dad are doing really great as well. Dads turned into more of a baby sitter than mum. He is regularly going in and checking on the pups while mum is laying directly under the aircon. He's a good boy looking after the missus and letting her get some rest. Had a good weight gain today of 110g. Average weight is 3242g, fatty has come back to the lead at 3420g and hit a 10 out of 10 on the cuter scale. Purple is still a big favourite in the 'look at me im lovely' category. Red is the rowdy boy, Orange is the most dudesome today. Brown has taken the 'crack me up' award and Green is his usual chilled super cool self. White girl is a bit of a grey man but boy does she love Big Pa cause he brings cuddles and food, After weighing I went to put her back in the box and she hung onto me and took a fair bit of convincing to let go. Very noisy this morning i had to enlist mumma and puppa dogs to help quiet them down. Mum was in the box cleaning and feeding them, Gus was cooing at the ones still waiting to be weighed and I was the mad chook doing everything else. What a team, I've called our little team the NQB Puppy machine. In the fawn corner we have Big Bubba Lover Gus, in the red corner we have Mumma Milk Shake and in the crazy corner is the Bald Mad Chook. White and Brown are still available. Have had a few people backing out, which is cool, much respect for those who make the tough but responsible decision. If your not ready, regardless of the reason its best for the pup to let it go. All things going well, there will be another Rosie Gus litter this time next year. Im on the look out for another special breeder girl for Gus, so there will definitely be more pups in the future. Its a big job but the little buggers are just so damn cute, how could i not do it again. Im definitely getting softer as i get older in more ways than one.
Just cause.
Must be time to trim the puppies nails again, Rosie has stopped laying down for them to feed.
Rosie after giving the pups a big feed. They have had milk and then beef this morning. They are currently in the outdoor pen and had a play and now all are sleeping. Average weight is 2917g and Green boy has taken the lead at 3070g. Had a few people back out of getting a pup, so currently i have Brown and Green Boys and White girl available. I think the price is bothering a few people, sorry guys but that is the going rate in Australia and I cant change it. I think the uploading problem is fixed and I'll do a longish video late today.
Got some very healthy puppies this morning. They had a big feed off mum and a good feed of beef and know it’s time for a nap. Average weight was 2730g fatty is still leading the race.
Outdoor play pen.
Alright we are at the end of week three. All puppies and pouches are happy and healthy. Average weight this morning was 2528g. Most people have there puppy pics after today I should have a male and a female left to go.
Woke the puppies up so i could change out the bedding. I had to do a quick vid first cause they were so cute. There were a few poops on the towels, but it was good to see they are starting to use the wee mat. I also discovered that their getting teeth, poor Rosie's boobs are in for it. Im going to clip the pups nails tomorrow if i can keep them still for long enough; wish me luck......
Everyones happy and healthy. Average weight was 1752g, Fatty is at 1860g. Purple girl is the one kissing Rosie's nose, she has won me over i just love her. Green boy is a very close second im guessing he will make a great companion dog. Red boy has won my son over, so he is no longer available, family first, sorry if you had your eye on him. I'll be doing another individual photo session later this week, hopefully the new collars arrive before hand.
I left the gopro going, by accident, while i was taking the puppies photo's. Its a bit boring, but if you want some more cuteness in your life...... And yes i sound like a girl when im talking to the puppies, real men do it.
Day 11 and all is well. Thought you would appreciate a video for a change. Ive ordered two new sets of collars from a different supplier, hopefully they will last a bit longer than a week.
Everyones doing well. Had to up Rosie's calcium intake yesterday and were ticking along nicely. Average weight is up to 989 grams. Fatty Boombah is still winning the growth race at 1110 grams, she's a machine.
Rosies keeping an eye on me. Average weight of the pups is 920g. The big girl is 1017g and i think i got her before her morning feed. Ive nicknamed her fatty boomba. Orange boy is super cute with his little wrinkles on his face. Red boy keeps shaking his collar off, he's the most active out of the lot. Purple girl is such a cutie and im guessing will have the same beautiful temperament as Rosie. Green boy loves the heat mat, he must still be feeding regularly as he has great weight gains, but when ever i check in on them he's always asleep on the mat. Funny thing happened last night, Rosie barked at something outside and with each bark her boobs clapped together.
Cleaned the dog box out and weighed the pups. Now that I've woken everyone it feeding time.
Gus found an old toy in the backyard. Its his favourite for now.
Froffee face. Yes froffee is a word, i have a froffee coffee daily
