Botswana’s leading Boerboel breeders converged on Game City Mall upper parking lot Saturday morning to conduct the first appraisal in the country under the newly introduced linear system.

It was the second time the South African Boerboel Breeders Association(SABBS) sanctioned event is held in Gaborone, Botswana for local Boerboel breeders.

He said, “This the second year time we have hosted the exercise in Botswana and we were quite happy with the turnout having exceeded the 15 Boerboel threshold to hold an appraisal. We are also excited to note that most of the dogs were being appraised for the first time and we did not see any repeat appraisals and we got an entrant from neighbouring South Africa – which bode well for the events future.”
