Story
Meet Xena, the Warrior Princess! Look at those ears! Xena is a completely unique, 9 months-old French Bulldog / Belgian Malinois / German Shepherd mix. She currently weighs a compact 32 lbs and will likely max out around 40 lbs—the perfect “big dog features in a medium dog body” package! She unfortunately ended up with a family who didn’t understand her breeds, but with the right foster or forever home, she is ready to thrive! The Good Stuff: 🐕 Dog & Human Friendly: She is incredibly sweet, social, and loves people and other dogs. 🥰Smart & Eager to Learn: She already knows “sit” and is actively working on her off-leash recall. 🏡House Skills: She is already house-trained and crate-trained! 💕Fun-Loving: She loves playing fetch and has that wonderful, playful puppy energy. The Ideal Home 🏡 Because of her Malinois and Shepherd roots, Xena has a high prey drive. She needs a home with NO cats or small farm animals. She will thrive best with someone who understands smart, active breeds and can give her the mental stimulation she craves. She’d love a yard, kids and a canine friend to play with, she’d need a secure yard to play in! She deserves a chance to show how amazing she is! 🐾 Form: http://amazingstraysrescue.org 🐾 Please share this on your social media

Story
Hi I'm Xena! I am a 3-year-old Malinois Mix and I weigh 75lbs. I am a huge cuddle bug but need consistent exercise and stimulation due to my breed. My owner unfortunately has to move and she is unable to bring me but this is what she says about me! I am trained to sit, stay, down, off, guard, shake, crate & will wait until you give me the command to eat my food. I would need a little help with jumping because I get excited but I will learn with consistency. I am house trained. not crate trained due to having extreme anxiety from the shelter but with proper guidance and training I can learn. I am extremely ball and food driven. I am amazing with kids and dogs (but need to be introduced in an open setting with dogs) Cats I haven't been around. I am the best dog when it comes to grooming. I will let you brush my teeths, my fur, and trim my nails. If you want to meet me please contact my foster Wendy phone : (619)431-6117 email: wendy_231@outlook.comMarch 8, 2026, 8:45 pm
