Important Events


Dear Boerboel Lover…

 

I hope everything is well with you and the rest of the family?

How is your Piet-Zyn-Drift Boerboel doing?

 

There are two main events every year where you can get involved together with your Boerboel where both of you can go and show the World what you are made off. The most exciting are the shows that takes place once a year and the other is the Gradings that takes place throughout the year! Both are explained in detail underneath – see Shows and Gradings.

  

Gradings

The Grading days will take place on specific dates through out South Africa as well as the rest of the world through out the year. As soon as your Boerboel reaches maturity, this is normally at the age of 15-months+, he\she will be ready to be evaluated which then also means that your Boerboel will be registered (good idea is to do a second evaluation at a later stage when he\she becomes more senior together with better development and much more maturity – this will definitely ensure a higher percentage on the second grading).

 

Shows

We are extremely excited to invite you and your Boerboel\s to the South African Regional shows and to the World Boerboel Show in South Africa!

2007 was a huge success for Piet Zyn Drift:

Achieved 56 places at Regional Shows and achieved 27 places at National South African Championships!!!

2008 was even more successful:

Achieved 54 places in South Africa with 45 qualifications for the first ever World Boerboel Championships held in South Africa!

With a phenomenal 26 places achieved in the World with 4 World Championships!!!

We strongly believe that there are many other “Champions” out there who did not compete in 2007 or 2008 and also believes that there are even more Champions in 2009 who we would like to invite to participate!

The Boerboel Shows are an ideal opportunity to show his\her qualities as well as all the efforts you’ve put into your Boerboel, to the rest of the world! This is a show for all Boerboels from the age of 6 weeks up to the older seniors, 6 years and older! There will be an age category for your Boerboel, Male or Female, to compete against the rest of the World’s best! All the Regional Shows will first take place in the different regions through out South Africa where 3-6 Boerboels per category can qualify to participate in the main event, the World Boerboel Show!

Please come and join us it is allot of fun for everybody!

We want to see every Piet Zyn Drift Boerboel qualifying for the 2009 World Boerboel Show!

Don’t underestimate your Piet Zyn Drift Boerboel; he\she will not let you down!

 

Minimal preparation for a day like this is necessary

Here are a few necessary steps:

 

  1. He\she needs a good shampoo wash a day or two in advance to give the natural oils of the coat time to recover, a good brush is necessary on the day together with small touch-ups for the final moment.

  2. Remember to take his\her leash, choke chain with a bowl for water and food.

  3. Bring his\her Birth Certificate\Registration Paper with.

  4. Most importantly is for your Boerboel to be comfortable on a leash on the day.  The only real important preparation that takes time is to walk him\her before the time for short distances as much as possible; a confident Boerboel on a leash will give you the edge and will definitely impress the judges.  Nothing else is necessary to teach your Boerboel except to walk him\her as much as possible to build up the confidence and trust between the two of you. A good dry pellet diet is all that is necessary together with extras like cooked liver 3 times weekly and adding 3 Zinc tablets once a day early morning with the food at least 6 months before the BIG day.

  5. The Piet Zyn Drift team will be present on the day to help you with special tips and to prepare your Boerboel for the BIG moment.

  6. You will also have the opportunity to become a member of the SABBA (South African Boerboel Breeders Association) at a minimal cost on the day.  The SABBA will provide you with information on what is going on in the world regarding these magnificent animals. 

     

There are many sponsors, big prizes, media coverage, photos and DVD’s will also be available on these days. This will be fun for the whole Family and you get to see many other Boerboels and also the Brothers and Sisters of your own baby.
