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. 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. 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. The kennel's Boerboel page listed a Michigan phone number and advertised puppies at $1,500 with full AKC registration. 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. 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.
