About Theta
PROFFERS THETA IS AN AMAZING FEMALE THAT WE WERE LUCKY TO ATTAIN OUT OF THE PROFFERS KENNEL. SHE HAS THICK BONE, GREAT REAR ANGULATION, AND GAINING VOLUME BY THE DAY. THETA IS A BIG FEMALE, SHE IS CONFIDENT AND INDEPENDANT AND LIKES TO BE ALPHA OF OUR PACK. Theta beta is her name that she often hears around the house - that or potatoes. She is the first to alert you of a new comer and will happily jump in between you and harms way. Theta loves her people snacks and is the true definition of a "Velcro" dog. She cuddles and snuggles and really enjoys her human interaction.

Verified owner · Aug. 2024
We have had our new puppy, Juno, (formerly Yellow Collar) for two weeks now and it has been nothing but a rewarding experience ever since Emily delivered her to us at our place in NW Indiana. (Thank you again to you and your family for making that 2-1/2 hour drive!!! It was a pleasure meeting you all.) Emily is a very caring and responsible breeder and clearly loves her work owning and operating Pine River Boerboels. We are thrilled to have Juno as a member of our homestead and she has adjusted to her new environment really well. She loves her walks out on the forest trails, and is already acting like a guardian over our small flock of chickens. She has taken to her short training sessions exceptionally well these first two weeks and we are sure that she will grow from being a great and happy puppy into a mature and wonderful dog.
