As I was saying earlier, to live within an urban area is much more of a task with 4 boerboels than living out in the country. There are a few reasons that immediately come to mind; first their protectiveness is heightened due to the fact that we have just come from 8 years of living in a VERY rural area and never seeing anyone except when out in town.. now even the garbage men come on their property and are trying to take things that belong to their family! ( how dare they ), secondly... the fact that they had free roaming ability out in the bush for their daily activity and excersise outlet whereas now in comparison to both myself and my husband and our two daughters all have jobs and social life.. we are needing to find the time to get them out and mentally tire them out as opposed to being physically tired out... third , we had gone through 1 bay window ( litterally ) while trying to come outside to rake and then destroy the pile of leaves... and finally fourth, the terrible fact that all of my dogs were taught to jump onto/over/and through obstacles while living in the country and now.. we have a larger than norm sized backyard with only 3.5 feet tall fencing at the moment.... so when we are putting all of these things together they amount to an interesting start to our first month of living in the city!
