Mallory - You are the bridge between what was and what will be, my pathway to a new life!
Mallory is a beautiful 3-year-old Belgian Malinois blend who weighs approximately 70 pounds. Maybe since Mallory is a little older (and/or because of what she is mixed with) she is calmer than most Mals. She is a little leery when she meets new people, but once you pass her test, she will melt your heart with her sweetness. She strives to please. She loves to cuddle, play and even to be brushed. She needs to be in a home where she is very much a part of the family because she wants to be near her favorite person. She doesn't realize her size, as she loves to cuddle in bed if there is room. :)`
Malinois' are not for everybody but in the right home they can make for a pawsome family member.
A Belgian Malinois is an enthusiastic and quick dog with a natural tendency to always be in motion. This breed is demanding and needs an experienced owner. The Belgian Malinois is a very smart and obedient dog. They can have strong protective and territorial instincts. This breed needs extensive socialization from an early age, and firm, but not harsh, training. Belgians are instinctively protective so they should be trained and socialized very well from an early age. Unless you are specifically working in a protection sport, you do not need to give your Belgian any protection training, as it will come naturally to them. Belgians make excellent pets for the right homes, as they thrive on loving companionship. They instinctively display herding behavior such as chasing and circling, moving effortlessly for hours.
Mallory needs a family that will keep her engaged with their activities, adventures and their everyday living routines. If she sounds like the perfect companion for you, please fill out her adoption application to make her a member of your family!!
