Adara Ridge BoerboelsInactive 18 mo
Adara Ridge Boerboels is a Bellevue, Michigan kennel whose Boerboel program has been presented as part of a three-breed operation, with the kennel's own site stating Dogue de Bordeaux since 1994, South African Boerboels since 2003, and Staffordshire Bull Terriers since 2009 [1]. The kennel's published account traces its Boerboels to two dogs obtained in 2003 from John Blackwell of Blackwell's Kennel, and states a breeding policy limited to fawn, red, and brindle, declining piebald, blue, solid black, and solid white [2]. Its published puppy purchase contract sets out a health guarantee, required veterinary care and a growth-appropriate diet, a right of first refusal for the breeder, and a prohibition on surrendering a dog to rescue, auction, or research or selling it for fighting [3]. The kennel's Boerboel page listed a Michigan phone number and advertised puppies at $1,500 with full AKC registration [4]. All of that published material dates from 2017 to 2020, and the web address the kennel used is no longer under its control: the registration lapsed, an unrelated party registered the domain in January 2025, and it now resolves to a placeholder page [5]. The most recent verifiable activity is an OFA cardiac evaluation recorded on October 29, 2024 for a dog carrying the kennel's registered-name prefix [6].
