I have a borboel and presa canario. I love them both but to be honest i favor the presa canario. He is smart, obedient, gentle, well tempered, sociable when needs to be but can definitely protect.My boerbel is hard headed, sweet, a good family dog, but will tend to try to do his own thing every once in a while. I have also had different breeds in my life before but the presa takes the crown
I just adopted my Boerboel Bane a little over two months ago and he's everything they are supposed to be! We've bonded very quickly. I live in Pennsylvania and most people have never heard of the breed, it feels good to educate the masses about this amazing breed!
I can't imagine how it is with a boerboel. My corso puppy is the whole educational talk with most people we meet.
Really good video. Ure very respectful and wise. Great channel bro. Merry Christmas
Thanks so much! 🙏🙏🙏 merry 🎄
I own Presa Canarias since more than 20 Years now and can tell You, that every Individual is different. I have seen everything within this Breed.
Also from Boerboels, i have seen brave, but also some shy and fearful Dogs. It's the highest Level of Dog Breeding, that can give a Forecast for the Character of a Litter.
And this ist mostly a Result of long term Line-Breeding.
💯
I'm wondering if I have to choose dogo argentino over presa canario...because I have 3 dogs and want a 4th...how presa canario are compared to others mastiffs
@@71ele17 dogo argentino it is white presa canario ))) hehe
def not for what I've seen, dogo are more common than presas and I only seen a 50% presa x pitbull in live but seen a few 100% like 5 dogo argentinos
Edit: They are slimer and have more stamina than presas that have strong mind@@valkf37379
FACTS!!!
Very good I enjoyed watching that very much.👍👍
Thanks Mike always a supporter 💪💪🙏
very good video. thank you We're getting our first Boerboel next month. we are very pleased. I also looked at your site and I am sure that we will get a dog from you over time. keep it up I've learned a lot.
Definitely my favourite dog .
Good pick.
I have the book. It’s a great/informative read!
Thanks for reading it my friend 🙏🙏
Hope you enjoy this video! The link for the book is here Boerboel Bible Book - www.amazon.com/dp/B0C52HVH9Y Thank you all for the support!
You missed a breed to add to this since it includes many rare breeds. Cao de fila de sao miguel. Smaller but just as fierce as the choices above. Also called the st miguel cattledog or azores mastiff. Molloser type mastiff. Curly tail like ancient Molloser. The farm type ones have more phenotypic traits still but many show line ones still can vary a bit since show breeders are drill using working line stock in many cases. 88 pound max unless you get one that's a bit tall.
Great analysis. I trust your objective assessment.
You mentioned 5 races you worked with.
I would introduce only 1 more breed and that is the Caucasian Shepherd "show variant", which was specially made in the largest military kennel in Russia "RED STAR".
Thanks to that, I single out the Caucasian Shepherd Dog as the best guardian of the estate, but also as the fiercest and strongest personal protector.
Apart from that, my most favorite breed is Alabai, white in color from Turkmenia with a bear's head, athletic, ideal weight of 75 kg, not too big to perform its duty perfectly.
I have corso x presa absolutely amazing can do everything and is so loving and playful
I have a 1 yr old rottweiler now and she is wonderful. She is my 3rd. I am in the process of fencing my 2 acres and will be getting a Boerboel after my Akita passes away. Both breeds are amazing. ♥️
We have a 5 yr old English Mastiff male &an 11 month old female Boerboel. Our goal is to build a pack as pets & gaurdians. Now that our puppy is almost 1, we're considering our next mastiff. We thought we would get either a black male corso or boerboel, until we seen an alibi puppy tonight, fell in love and started looking into the breed & I remembered your channel... We've built a good friendship w/our Boerboel kennel & they're close to us, so that's where we'll get our 2nd Boerboel when the time comes... I've so enjoyed watching & appreciate your Boerboel content over the last year and have learned alot,thank you😊... I'm wondering if you have a website or how can we get in touch to learn more about your Alibi puppies?
Hi ! Thanks for the comment my friend :) yes however I only do like a litter per year or so , so best way to contact is by email info@eliteboerboels.com :)
South Africa mastiffs and Rottweilers is my two favourites
Boerboel
Rottweiler
Perro De Presa Canario
Alabai
Cane Corso
My top two on top
I really appreciate your videos. Thanks for another good one. I hope to get a boerboel in the not too distant future. So I find insight from experienced people helpful.
I’ve only had pit bulls and presas, and my presa was just as fierce as my pitbull and more agile than you think. A lot more obedient, gentil with kids, and always impressive looking wherever you go
@EliteBoerboels,,
Thank you very much for sharing your experiences with these breeds.
Since seem to live in Portugal, I would be very grateful if you could make a video about the
Cão de Fãila de São Miguel, describing all the relevant points and comparing him with similar breeds (purpose, size).
Thank you very much in advance.
When it comes to pure power, which one do you think it is?
1. Alabai hands down. Proven ability of centuries of guarding flock and family.
2. Boerboel
3. Distant 3rd Presa. Presa is more prey drive then defense. To me this means less stability for guarding and more liability if not properly handled or not as reliable as far as temperament.
As a guy who owns a pitbull who is pretty Game, I agree with you on the presa. Having a dog with high prey drive is a liability for 90% of people.
@@RickyBobby42069 definitely. Plus if you’re talking pure ability to protect in a real life situation Alabai is the most capable fighter out of those 3. They’re huge, athletic, endurance and fast.
The video is about best family protection guard dog , the Alabai is by far way less trainable then all the other breeds , it needs to be a very experienced person also they are super independent which is not ideal for a family, I don’t believe in mordern day society he can be considered close to the qualities of the boerboel to be a family dog , tge boerboel can be a dog that can be inside the house with kids chilling watching Netflix , Alabai not that type of dog . Alabai are very effective Guard dogs especially on large lands , on that task they are the best , on the rest the boerboel is better . Regarding prey I’ll have to disagree , prey drive is highly effective for training , I prefer prey to agression , another point in favor , problem of prey is you need to handle the dog well but … agression even worse and this is how dogs bite so for a family better prey then agression in my opinion , a dog biting on prey is more controllable then on agression . This are all strong dogs offcourse needs to be owners that know what they doing :) Thanks for the opinion
The Presa is a true protector. It’s the only dog out of these that will and can kill a man. A full grown male Presa will protect and defend if someone tries to come and hurt you or your family
@@DopeBoysofAtlanta every dogs are capable of killing a human even mutt dogs.
I will have time to go visit Portugal in July. Would love to bring a puppy back to Spain with me.
You forgot point 4..what dog is better looking!
Boerboel ah ah
because picking a dog by appearance is how idiots end up with dogs they aren't remotely suited to
Having owned a CAS and currently own a cane corso and Boerboel the Boerboel is the better protection dog.
👌👌👌
In my experience I haven't seen a more intelligent, loyal protector than the cane corso. I would say them and Boerboels are interchangeable above the rest because they vibe well with the fam and you can get them at any decent working weight you'd ever need. Rottweilers are inferior in terms of firepower, muscle, weight, and bite force, but just as good general family guardians. The alabai is absolutely too much dog for most people whether we're talking about size, temperament, or liability. That leaves the Presa, which is a phenomenal dog, but more prey driven, so i could see them being an awesome police/military apprehension dog if bred right, but not a better protector than a boerboel or a corso.
Hello, good video. I like all these dog breeds but my two top favorite dogs of all are.. Danish Mastiff the Broholmer and the Dogo Español, the larger version of the Alano Español. 🐾
My Rottweilers were the perfect dog for me, however i love the look of Boerboel and im really keen on Boerboels next. I was considering Kangals but i think the climate of Pakistan would be better suited to a Boerboel.
Boerboel #1
Which is the strongest ?
💯
can we size your alabais on the scales love to see a functional 100kg dog, apart from st Bernards and English mastiffs ive never seen a non obese dog reach that size.
Honestly i prefer smaller dogs ( more prey driven more athletic) (better in work) but i understand for looks a big as dog big muscles is pritty like american buldogg boerboel. But for fight work better is the smaller athletic with more game. Exception for tosa inu bully kuta they atheletic for the size to and very game and agressive
Mine boy 52 kg presa canario atheletic as fuk i see all those giants boerboel alabai and other presas they not ahtletic stockyy and slow is good for looks but for sirious work better the athletic ones are better but for everyone something
Presa canario #1
Rui how do u deal with attention to the dogs if you have so many? Having owned Boerboels and Cane corsos I know they can get rather lonely sometimes.
I have a lot of staff my friend , 2 trainers , 2 kennel employees , my wife and me
All the Dogs listed are Formative. I personally own a Presa and my family has has 3 of them. If there Dailed in Right there a great Guard Dog that is very loyal and Lovable at the same time. They will guard with there Life. At 140lbs my Girl can bring it .
From a breeder's point of view, how much space does a dog need and how often does it have to go out? I really want to have one but of course I have to know how long I have to take him out and if my house is big enough for these cute monsters
one or two times a day, 15 to 30 minutes. Plus obedience training 2 to 3 times a day. If you have a yard you're good, the bigger the better.
I have a 2 year old Presa Canario, as far as intelligence and performance He is just a amazing dog. Amazing intimidation factor. My Presa was able to keep up with the speed of a border collie and he is about 180lb. Amazing how something so big can run so fast, I have heard stories of people thinking their Presa will chase off coyotes and they are shocked when the Presa catch's the coyote and kills it instead.
Dude wait till you see a wolfdog go full tilt for the first time. Now most aren't the size of my joda, but almost 36 inches at the shoulder. 7 feet 2 inches long. 175 pounds. 7 inch paws. Like 30 mph easily probably faster tbh. It's actually scary watching how much ground he can cover and imagining being chased down by wild wolves. No escape.
@@bmxriderforlife1234 As a presa that is 180 pound catching a coyote...that presa would have no fear to fight a 30in wolf but will end with bad injury
@71ele17 except a 30 inch wolf is small
Try like 36 to 41 Inches tall and 7 to 7.5 feet long.
@@bmxriderforlife1234 30 is the average of northwestern wolves...those one at 40+in are unique spieces
@71ele17 the north western timberwolf also called the mackenzie valley wolf. You are mistaking another species that lives in the north west. The north western wolf is the north western timberwolf.
Their average is around 33 inches. But part of that is due to human encroaching on their territory and less game. 40 inch plus is just a large example. My wolfdog is about the size of a large example at almost 36 inches but the smaller end. Historic examples got alot larger. Some zoo examples have pushed rather large given lineage. The Yellowstone releases are also getting huge.
I wish i could have one of each of them 😂
Would you or have you ever Cross bred the Boerboel/Rottweiler? Just curious what the combo would be.
That'd be an absolute unit
Wonder what gene would be more dominant.
I would do it if I knew solid Rottweilers but nowadays I can’t find any :( but if I found I would try :)
I have someone that got that cross and his dog look like a boerboel but wit the inverse coat of a normal rottweiler
My cane corso puppy would like to disagree. Havent had to train anything. She adores children. Cane corso should be tied at least for best family protection dogs.
Boerboel and presa are just as good.
Cao de fila might be a step aboce imo. Kangal are also really good. Alabai from the one from real turkish type lines ive met.
St miguel cattledog i might be biased towards. My last rescue was amazing. But i think theyre all equal but require a bit of tuning.
Hope you have a wonderful day.
Presa not as good as a family dog , canecorsos are good don’t get me wrong I just think and this is based on my experience, that a canecorso is not as good as a boerboel on most levels , but I do like the breed .
Cão fila s Miguel are very good dogs solid dogs especially as guarding , but are not step above they just different :)
@@EliteBoerboels presa I've met are good with children. Might work better with a single handler for some stuff but not necessary an issue just needs to be tuned.
St miguel cattledog have unusually long lifespans for their size. And have a rather unique blend of the various molloser type personalities and temperments.
I know presa can sometimes but a bit rough on play but that can be trained.
But boerboel as puppies but almost fully grown same with some others might have similar issues just due to still being goofy puppies. Similar reasons many supposed big breeds don't work well for families.
@@EliteBoerboelsI thought about it. Yeah they probably are equal, but the st miguel cattledog does have a few interesting advantages. The energy levels though could make it a disadvantage for many. But the undocked and cropped looked can still be very intimidating looking when they switch on, versus when relaxed the curly tail and floppy ears with the size doesn't looking that intimidating.
Also dog thefts where I live are common. St miguel at least in my situation is rare enough most idiots won't know what it is and try and steal it as a puppy. Versus a corso. Boerboel and presa are more likely to get spotted due to them being the giant breeds. St Miguel's are a bit too small for most of those types.
But I suppose they all have their own issues. Herding instincts and children can be a bit of an issue and primitive type cattledog instincts and cattledriving instincts can be an issue.
They're all gorgeous breeds though. And black boerboel are deffs some of the most beautiful dogs I've ever seen.
What about Kangal?
Similar to the alabai but even more extreme , it’s a GREAT dog I personally would be curious to have one , but as a FAMILY dog I dont think it’s the right choice, the other ones are more balanced as a family dog in my opinion
@@EliteBoerboels thank u for ur kind answer however I need to underline that you are very unfortunately mistaken on your opinion. Kangal’s are one of the (maybe the) most pure and one of the oldest breed that has rooted in anatolia. Their inherited genes DNA are directly the most close domestic dog to wild life wols. Their independence, intelligence, team work, herd hierarchy and owning its herd (dog or human) along with guarding skills, strength is unmatched. None of alabai’s could be compared to Kangal. I know u r somehow accustomed old pure breed such as alabai’s but kangal’s are a whole different world. Their instictive people skills particularly woman and children is out of roof. A good dog person like you are definitely needs to own a PURE BLOOD REAL KANGAL (not mixed anatolian shepherds) because u will get to know the breed better and it will get to be owned by a professional like you....
@@EliteBoerboelsdo you believe that the alabai is a more stronger breed than the kangal?
Yeah because alabai weight more than kangal that goes up to 60kg
I don’t doubt boerboel is an excellent dog, I still haven’t own any of this breeds and if I could I would own two or three of them at the same time just wondering if it’s possible to have them together at once but the two that call my attention the most are cane corso and presa canario
cane corso is slightly more energic than boerboel and presa canario depending on the type (guarding, family or working) still have more energy than those mastiffs and posted as the second mastiff dog with more stamina after dogo argentino
What's the price range for a beorboel pup?
Send us email to info@eliteboerboels.com thanks 🙏
Gsd
id say rottweiler is better as a family dog. boerboel is a bit much for a lot of people
akita
Bull mastiff
They are great 😊 but they are not on the same level as protection dogs as any other of those breeds so I would say they are perfect as family PET dog , but as a protection , Guard and family dog the whole package would be other :) but they are great dogs
Serbian Defense Dog ??
Cant include all and I only talked about those breeds because I own them all now or owned in the past . But the Serbian defense dog it’s interesting
I feel like you should have left the alabai out of the conversation and replaced it with a dogo argentino. You said best for family. You can’t be a family guard dog and be independent
Yes you can , Alabai are great family dogs for the right family , if I had a big farm and want a family guard dog that protect my big property , snd you are away from work lot of time and the family know about dogs Alabai are perfect , it’s all about the context , Alabai are great fit for some families while others boerboels are better .
@@EliteBoerboels yes, but I feel like the dogo argentino are a better fit for families than the alabai
@@DopeBoysofAtlanta depend on each family my friend , dogos are great 👍
@@DopeBoysofAtlantawhere I live dogo Argentina is banned, Alibai is not
Im pretty sure i could outrun the rottweilers of today 😂 we call them "Pugweilers" nowadays and dumbass breeders where i live (basically glorified puppy mills) import a crap ton of them and sell them to public (which sadly is like a status symbol where i live and most of them spend their whole lives in a cage) stating them as "top quality" 😂 i think a stray dog can outwork them now
Agree 100% , it’s a lost breed but they were so good ! Back in the days it was a impressive breed I owned several and they stay in my memory for life .
❤ I hate the new Rottweilers. I found my girl and had to drive 13 hours to get her. She is the old school look. She is probably a little too tall for breed standard but I would rather have that than the brachial dogs they are now pushing.😅😅
With all do Respect , I had boerboel and cane Corso ,
Cane Corso are better dog all the way 💯💯
And I have 60 boerboels at the moment in my farm , and I owned around 10 canecorso , maybe you got a low quality boerblel because a real one is better in literally everything, canecorsos only do 1 thing better is jumping … but I wanna dog not a canguru so :) I know people can get protective when it comes to comparing breeds , but better to just accept reality as it is :) this is not an opinion of someone that own a dog or 2 , literally hundreds and hundreds of dogs pass throw my hands , boerboel is by far best dog period .
