Important Events
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.
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).
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!
Here are a few
necessary steps:
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.
Remember to
take his\her leash, choke chain with a bowl for water and food.
Bring his\her
Birth Certificate\Registration Paper with.
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.
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.
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.
