My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Torrie von Tornesch is a gorgeous, 9-10 month-old Belgian Malinois. This striking beauty is a charismatic and smart girl who adores playing, running and cuddling. She's incredibly affectionate, showering you with kisses and happy to snuggle in your lap. And she is super smart and eager to learn, readily paying attention and eager to please her handler. While Torrie is athletic and active, she's very much into people and not as energetic or high-drive as some Malinois -- more of a Mal light! She is friendly with other dogs, and best paired with another playful pup if there's another dog in the home (she has an exuberant play style.) (She's a no for cats.) If you are an active person/family searching for a loving, lively and smart companion to join in your adventures, Torrie is ready to be your playful, loyal sidekick.

Based on our experience, Westside's current thinking is to usually match first-time shepherd owners with a mix versus a purebred shepherd. Mixes are "softer" and somewhat more malleable. Exceptions can be made, however, for first-time adopters who show the confidence and leadership tendencies that purebreds will respect and respond to. Counselors have to use good judgment in assessing the attributes of the adopter, as well as of the dog. If you have doubts, get a second opinion from Robin or another experienced counselor.
