About us

Who are we?

I am Barnabás Szilágyi, the proud owner of Sámson Boerboels kennel, living in Hajdúsámson, Hungary. Sámson Boerboels kennel was established in 2023, officially registered with the South African SAABS organization. Looking back: since my childhood, I have been fond of animals, cherishing every living being and plant, yet it is the dog that has accompanied me for 48 years, to my great joy. As a schoolboy living in a suburban garden house, I walked to school, and it was rare for a dog not to join me on my way. Somehow, I attracted them, and they me. At the age of 10, I got my first purebred dog from my father, a true Hungarian treasure, a female Komondor. I explored nearby places to find a worthy mate for my dog, and the first litter of 7 puppies was born. I wanted to keep all of them, but with a heavy heart, I parted with them, ensuring they found caring owners. Later, the Molosser-type dogs, especially the Mastino Napoletano and Cane Corso, stole my heart. I consider myself lucky to have had such wonderful dogs that stood their ground in dog shows. My son Barnus and I started breeding more seriously, breeding American Bullies for several years. The turning point came in 2019 when I saw these noble and imposing dogs in a photo, leading me to discover the Boerboel breed. It took four years for my dream to come true, buying dogs from my chosen South African kennels. I'm grateful to La Boela Kennel for our three dogs: La Boela Moscow, our breeding male; La Boela Daisy, a wonderful female; and La Boela Daenerys, a unique black female. Thanks also to Elevation Stud Kennel, where I bought another fantastic dog, Elevation Stud Ruby. Finally, gratitude to Middelpos Kennel for our hopeful boy, Middelpos Gift. All my dogs are SAABS registered and evaluated. It's important to me that the dogs I breed find worthy owners. I carefully consider who wants to buy a Boerboel and if they can provide what this breed needs. I am happy that our wonderful dogs live with us, and I take the trust of their breeders as an honor, striving to prove worthy of their decades of work. There's a saying that everyone chooses a dog similar to themselves, indicating similarities between owner and loyal companion. If this is true, I am proud to be anything like this magnificent breed.
