Animal Profile: King is an estimated 1-year 5-month-old 74 lb neutered male Malinois who was a stray intake to the Moreno Valley animal shelter and assessed to be friendly with dogs and people (albeit a bit unruly and in need of training). After over two months in the shelter environment with no interest, he became increasingly frustrated and was red-listed for "kennel stress." We have pulled him and we will share more info as we get to know him in foster care.
* King has been in foster care with On the Mark Balanced Training *
Foster Updates: King is a goofy, high-energy, friendly boy! He absolutely loves people and is a confident boy -- he has not been scared or hesitant about anything he’s come across so far. He is calm and quiet in his kennel, goes in on command, and waits to be released. He would do well in an active home that likes running or long walks. We think he would also love to try dog sports such as agility, nosework or dock diving. He likes to play ball and rolls upside down with his ball when he needs a break from running. He is neutral with other dogs and when allowed to interact off-leash does want to play (though he is a bit oblivious to other dogs' cues so would do best with tolerant playmates). He has learned to walk nicely on the leash and is doing well with the place command. He is currently being fostered by On the Mark Balanced Training and will come with a take home lesson to teach you how to walk him with a nice loose leash and a place command.
