Havok’s Story

IL’s Wreak Havok

Two and a half years ago, Tevin and Jessica faced a heart-wrenching loss. Their beloved Rottweiler, Loki, who had been a constant source of love, protection, and companionship, had passed away. It was a devastating moment in their lives—one that left a void no one could fill. But as time went on, they knew they were ready to welcome another dog into their hearts, someone who could step up and become part of the legacy they were building with Iron Legacy Working Dogs.

That’s when they found Havok.

Havok, a small puppy at the time, came into their lives like a whirlwind—full of energy, curiosity, and an undeniable presence that made it clear from the start that he was destined for greatness. From the very first moment they picked him up, Tevin and Jessica knew he was special. It wasn’t just his powerful physique or striking appearance—it was his spirit, his intelligence, and his natural drive. Havok was already showing signs of the incredible working dog he would become.

Havok has gone everywhere with Tevin and Jessica. He’s been their constant companion, their protector, and their partner in every step of this journey. Whether it’s on road trips, in training sessions, or at home, Havok has never strayed far from their side. His loyalty is unwavering, and his bond with them is unbreakable. He’s more than just a dog—he’s family.

One of the things that makes Havok so exceptional is his ability to be a demo dog. When it comes to showing others what a well-trained dog can do, Havok shines. His calm demeanor, combined with his impressive working skills, make him the perfect example for potential clients, new handlers, and anyone seeking to understand the power of a truly trained working dog. From obedience exercises to protection work, Havok demonstrates his skills with precision, making it easy for others to see what dedication and training can achieve.

In addition to being a standout demo dog, Havok has also had a tremendous impact on Iron Legacy's breeding program. He was the proud father of the first two litters of Euro Mountain Mastiffs—strong, intelligent dogs that now go on to serve as companions and working dogs for families across the country. These litters were the start of something truly special, and Havok’s legacy as a stud dog was cemented with each puppy he produced. His temperament, size, and working drive are traits he passed on to his offspring, ensuring that his legacy lives on in the next generation.

Looking ahead, Tevin and Jessica are excited to announce that Havok will be the sire of an upcoming purebred Boerboel litter in the next year or so. This new chapter will only add to his legacy as one of the finest examples of the breed—a true working line Boerboel that exemplifies strength, loyalty, and drive. Havok’s impact on the Boerboel breed is just beginning, and his future as a stud dog will no doubt be as impressive as his past.

What makes Havok truly exceptional isn’t just his achievements in the ring or his incredible lineage—it’s his heart. Despite his imposing size and strength, Havok is a gentleman to everyone he meets. He’s calm with children, respectful with other dogs, and protective of his family. His presence commands attention, but he always carries himself with dignity and grace. Tevin and Jessica know that no matter where they go, Havok will always be there, not only to protect them but to show the world what a true working dog looks like.

In the world of working dogs, few possess the combination of physical ability, temperament, and training that Havok does. As the second-ranked Boerboel in the nation for dock diving, he has proven time and again that he is not just a protector, but an athlete as well. His love for the water and his natural talent for dock diving have made him a standout in the sport, earning him accolades and recognition among working dog enthusiasts.

But perhaps the most remarkable thing about Havok is his versatility. He has been trained extensively in personal protection, ensuring that Tevin and Jessica are always safe and secure, no matter the situation. His protection work is second to none, as he knows exactly when to be calm and when to act with power. He is, without a doubt, a true working line Boerboel—a dog bred for function, loyalty, and excellence.

Looking back at everything Havok has accomplished in his relatively short life, it’s clear that he is a dog that will leave a lasting impact on Iron Legacy Working Dogs. From fathering litters to excelling in protection and sports, to being the heart of the family, Havok has proven time and again that he is a cornerstone of the program. His legacy is already secure, and Tevin and Jessica know that, with Havok by their side, the future of their breeding and training program is bright.

Havok is more than just a dog—he’s a symbol of strength, loyalty, and dedication. A true testament to the legacy they’re building, Havok will always hold a special place in their hearts, as well as in the future of Iron Legacy Working Dogs.
