wow please tell us when you appraise him I'd love to know his score, how's his temperament like?
hope he reps his breed well smiley
Will do bro wink

I think the bottom pictures sums up his temperament......

Big softy with his family..... But still extremely protective, as they were bred to be cool

ghana is currently the largest gold producer in africa
It's funny that i could only find one source that says Ghana produced more gold than South Africa in 2018........yet the rest all put South Africa at 8th in the world in 2018?

it's possible tho right? that's why it's on the chart, it's not an average weight, it's more of an exaggerated estimate after 12 months because of the way some dogs grow.
anywaaays....
how much does mike weigh right now?, I'm guessing that guy should be over 170lbs.
have you estimated his full weight when he's fully grown? shocked
Mikes around 80kg now.... Thus fully grown I expect him to be around 85kg-90kg
PetsRe: Murphy the Boerboel and Gustaf the German shepherd by jl115: 6:13pm On Jan 08, 2020
IamAnderson:
that's rare but possible you know?
odi in SA weighed 230lbs
Definitely possible yes, Afrika Sakabuka( I posted photos of him on the previous page) is to my knowledge the heaviest BB ever appraised in SA at 238lbs, however he was still perfectly balanced, lean and agile!
PetsRe: Murphy the Boerboel and Gustaf the German shepherd by jl115: 6:11pm On Jan 08, 2020
IamAnderson:
obviously they're too heavy, they're exaggerated, a BB shouldn't pass 176lbs.
they're not exact figures
In terms of weight vs age is where i think its an exaggeration, you don't want a 180 pound Boerboel at 13 months, simply because of the weight on the joints.

However I totally disagree with the bolded, There is no reason a boerboel shouldn't weigh more than 176lbs IF he is Balanced and still able to work!

60lbs at 4months of age for males?? Isn't that kinda too much?
How do you weigh roscoe? Btw
Mike was over 70 lbs at 4 Months.....however that weight chart still isn't correct, the weights for from 12 months and up are to heavy to be that of a boerboel.

you'll struggle to find a boerboel that weighs 180 pounds at 13 months

IamAnderson:
lol no it's the boerbel chart, the English mastiff chart was also there.
you can see the title there
That definitely isn't a Boerboel weight chart, the weights displayed on the chart are to heavy to be that of a Boerboel....specifically from 12 months up

Mall of Africa was always part of the Waterfall City development, however it was decided to complete the Mall first.

IamAnderson:
that's what I was trying to tell you when I was saying Augusto's weight is good for his age and the mass will come later.
if Augusto should have his adult mass right now he'll be limping or his legs will be shaking while he's walking, his joints will just be a mess.
just feed him well and let him grow naturally, you'll notice the mass increase when he's older.
large-giant breed dogs shouldn't be bulky like adults as puppies, it's very bad for them, although it also doesn't mean your dog should be underweight too.. there's an estimated recommended weight per age and sex for each breed.

here's the official BB weight chart in case you want to monitor his weight wink
I don't believe this weight chart is 100% correct imo!! and is definitely NOT an official Boerboel weight chart.Looks more like an English Mastiff weight chart to me

What if Steyn city development
Not sure to be honest, I didn't know about it until you told me..... Development projects no matter the size barely make much news in SA, unless corruption is involved, then every news outlet is on it.

We would be happy to see RSA rise... because as Africa biggest investor..it waves or tides will raise a lot of smaller boats...but reality is different.Fix Eskom first and fast.
Hence why Andre de Ruyter has been appointed ceo...... However Eskom imo has no choice but to privatise most of its business.

I8 months, really?? At what age do they attain their peak growth?
Usually at around 18 months they reach their height..... However they still grow in bulk up to 2.5 years

The reason to keep them lean is to keep as much weight of their joints as possible until the joints are fully developed.

My dream has always been to own such working boerboel bred differently from the shop boerboels but yet huge and athletic...

You're doing a good job with mike

Thumbs up
I think you already got one in Augusto wink just remember to keep him lean until about 17-18 months... Then you can start bulking again!!!
