Boerboel Directory listings are not written by breeders. Our team researches every kennel from public sources and cites each factual claim, then buyers add reviews. That independence is exactly what a prospective puppy buyer wants to see, and it is something a pay-to-list marketplace cannot offer.
If your kennel is listed, you are welcome to display this free badge on your own website. It tells buyers your listing was independently vetted and links them straight to your verified profile.

How verification works
- 1. Our team compiles your listing from public sources (your site, social profiles, registries, reviews).
- 2. Every factual claim is cited so buyers can check the evidence themselves.
- 3. Buyers add reviews, and we keep the listing current. You email corrections; you cannot silently edit it.

Questions
How does a kennel get the Independently Verified badge?
Every kennel listed in Boerboel Directory is researched and written by our editorial team, with each factual claim cited. Once your listing is live, you are welcome to display the badge linking back to your profile. Breeders cannot edit their own listings, which is what makes the badge meaningful to buyers.
Does the badge cost anything?
No. Listing and the badge are both free. The directory exists to help buyers find reputable breeders.
What does "independently verified" mean here?
It means an independent third party (our editorial team), not the breeder, compiled the listing from public sources and cited the evidence. It is a transparency signal, not a guarantee or endorsement of any individual transaction.
