Dear
Boerboel Lover…
I hope everything is well with you and the rest of the family???
How is your Piet-Zyn-Drift Boerboel doing???
We are extremely excited to invite you and your Boerboel\s to the
South African Regional and National Boerboel Shows and to all the
Grading days that will take place in 2008!
Shows
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 South Africa’s best! All the Regional Shows will first take
place in the different regions through out South Africa which will be
followed by the main event, the South African National Boerboel
Championships always towards the end of the year!!!
Don’t underestimate your Piet Zyn Drift Boerboel, he\she might just
surprise you!
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).
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.
Minimal preparation for a day like this is
necessary
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 extra’s 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.
2007 Was a great year for Piet Zyn
Drift!!!
2008 Promises to be even bigger and better!!!
