The photos below belong to Coomore Boerboels – visit this site – they have great dogs and the photos are stunning! James Brennan really breeds old school Boerboels. I have put an extract from the site below – maybe one of my readers will be able to help him out:

Geelbos Project 
I was fortunate enough to find two dogs of almost pure Geelbos blood some time ago. One of these was kindly given to me by Lukas Van Vuuren to breed with.

The Geelbos kennel was one of the founding kennels of the SABT and bred good old fashioned farm dogs; powerful, muscular, and athletic with good temperaments. As the bloodline was until recently thought to be extinct, this was like a leap to the past to get two original Boerboels. Aside from the virtues of being powerful and athletic without exaggeration, these dogs represent an outcross to practically all of the modern dogs. 

If anyone knows of more partly or wholly Geelbos bred dogs whom I might be allowed to breed with, please let me know as I would like to try to recreate this old line. I bred these two dogs and produced two pups, a male and a female. So, introducing the Coomore Geelbos twins, shown below at 10 weeks old:
