Real Steel BoerboelsInactive 2+ yrs

Missouri City, TX

Real Steel Boerboels described itself as a small hobby breeding kennel based in Missouri City, Texas, southwest of Houston, a description drawn from the kennel's own site ^[1]. One Real Steel bred female, Real Steel Annabella of Estate Guardians, has an OFA hip evaluation of Good and an OFA elbow evaluation of Normal, both recorded in December 2023 ^[2]. The hip result is published rather than withheld, on a sample of one dog ^[2]. The kennel's website at realsteelboerboels.com is no longer online and its domain registration has lapsed as of July 2026 ^[1]. The most recent verifiable dated record connected to the kennel is that December 2023 registry evaluation ^[2], and no verifiable activity has been recorded since.

OFA Health Testing

View all records →

Public OFA records for dogs bred by this kennel, identified by the kennel prefix in each dog's registered name. A dog may have been owned by someone else when it was tested, so these records reflect what the kennel produced rather than what it currently owns. Counts include all-time history; scoring uses the past 5 years only.

Hip result disclosure

Hip results are public for 1 of 1 dog screened for hips or elbows. Across all Boerboels in OFA's database the figure is 78%.

Every dog screened for hips or elbows has its hip result on the public record. OFA lets owners keep abnormal results private, so a complete set is a deliberate choice to publish.
