Updated July 2026
The Short Answer
Yes, we serve Florida. Our dogs are raised on our property in Livingston, Texas (East Texas, north of Houston), and most Florida families have their puppy delivered by professional ground transport, which is a relatively short one to two day run, or by a flight nanny for a small puppy. You are also always welcome to drive over and pick your puppy up in person. Puppies generally run $2,500 to $3,500 (see our price guide), with transport quoted separately.
How Shipping a Boerboel to Florida Works
Florida is one of our more straightforward routes. Livingston sits in East Texas, so a transport heading east on Interstate 10 reaches the Florida Panhandle quickly and continues down the peninsula to the major metros. In practice the trip is usually about one to two days on the road, which is shorter than the runs we make to the West Coast or the Northeast, and it means your puppy spends less time in transit.
We coordinate every delivery with you so the hand-off is smooth, whether your puppy is landing in Miami, heading up to Orlando, crossing to Tampa on the Gulf side, or going north to Jacksonville. You can read the full process on our Boerboel puppy shipping page.
Ground Transport
A licensed pet transporter drives your puppy from East Texas to Florida in a climate-controlled vehicle with regular stops for water, food, and potty breaks. Typically a one to two day trip, with door-to-door delivery.
Flight Nanny
For a small puppy, a flight nanny can fly with your pup in the cabin into a Florida airport such as Miami, Orlando, or Tampa. It is faster than driving and the puppy is personally supervised the whole way.
Pick Up in Texas
Many Florida buyers turn the pickup into a road trip and collect their puppy in person in Livingston, Texas. It is a great way to meet our dogs and see where your puppy was raised.
Owning a Boerboel in Florida: Heat and Humidity
The Boerboel is a heavy, short-coated guardian breed (males typically 150-200 lbs, females 120-170 lbs, lifespan commonly cited at 9-11 years); our Boerboels Explained guide covers size, temperament, and care in full. For Florida owners, the one thing to plan for above everything else is heat and humidity.
The good news is that our dogs are raised in the East Texas climate, which gets hot and humid in its own right, so the transition to Florida is not a shock to a Boerboel's system. The practical things that matter most are simple: shade and constant fresh water outdoors, air conditioning indoors during the hottest months, and exercising your dog in the cooler early morning or evening rather than the midday sun. Watch for heavy panting and give your dog a cool place to lie down.
Beyond the weather, the same basics apply in Florida as anywhere: early socialization, calm consistent training, and a securely fenced yard. With those in place, a Boerboel makes a steady, loyal companion for a Florida household. See what is available right now on our available puppies page.

Florida Boerboel Puppy FAQ
Do you ship Boerboel puppies to Florida?
Yes. We are based in Livingston, Texas, and we regularly arrange transport to Florida, including the Miami, Orlando, Tampa, and Jacksonville areas. East Texas to Florida is a relatively short route, usually about one to two days by professional ground transport, which makes it one of the more common trips we coordinate.
How much does it cost to ship a Boerboel puppy to Florida?
Shipping within the 48 mainland US states generally costs $500-$1,500, and Florida usually sits toward the lower end of that range because East Texas to Florida is a relatively short one to two day ground run. Puppies 20 lbs or under may fly in the cabin with a flight nanny instead, and you are always welcome to pick your puppy up in person in Livingston, Texas. See our shipping page for details.
Can I visit your Texas kennel from Florida before buying?
Yes. We welcome serious buyers in Livingston, Texas, and Florida is one of the easier states to visit from: Interstate 10 runs straight from Florida into East Texas, so Panhandle buyers can make it a single long day's drive and the rest of the state a comfortable two days. If you cannot make the trip, we stay in close contact with photos, video, and updates so you know exactly what you are getting before transport is arranged.
How much does a Boerboel puppy cost delivered to Florida?
Most Boerboel puppies from reputable breeders sell for $2,500 to $3,500 depending on pedigree, conformation, and breeding rights. Transport adds $500-$1,500, with the short East Texas-to-Florida ground route usually toward the lower end, so plan on roughly $3,000 to $5,000 all-in for a typical puppy delivered to Florida. See our price guide for a full breakdown.
