Story
Kashmir is a patient, understanding dog and a purebred Belgian Malinois, though much larger than average for the breed. At about 115 pounds, he’s all muscle and very tall for a Malinois. He was originally rescued by my mother from an experienced owner who, due to health issues, could no longer give him the care he deserved. Sadly, my mother is now facing her own health challenges and is unable to properly care for him as well. Kashmir is wonderful with children and gets along well with other pets. That said, he is still a working dog at heart and needs proper structure, exercise, and engagement to truly thrive. While he’s become a bit lazy over the years (for a Malinois!), he is very intelligent and highly trainable once you rebuild his drive and motivation. Im an experienced dog handler, but I dont have the space he needs, so Ive taken on the responsibility of finding him the right home. He has so much potential and would do best with someone familiar with the breed.

Story
Rip a 4 yr old, Malinois/Belgian Shepherd mix. He is a big boy at 90lbs. Rip is very intelligent and eager to please. He is very food motivated. He knows many basic commands, including sit, touch, down, paw and is working on roll over. He is also crate trained. Rip enjoys going on long walks with staff and volunteers. Rip's walking ability has received glowing reviews, as our walkers have told us he is one of the most enjoyable dogs to walk. Rip enjoys human interaction, and will ask for attention and affection at any given opportunity. Like any good dog he loves a butt scratch, a belly rub and a head pat. As for other dogs, Rip is selective. He enjoys the company of a dominant female, who can doll out and receive some rough and rowdy play. As much as he loves kids of all ages, due to his size and general doofiness a home with children is not recommended. Rip is also not suitable for a home with cats. For more information on Rip Wheeler, call AWS at 860-354-1350 email animalwelfare.socty@snet.net or visit our website aws-shelter.org for a pre adopt application. Adoption fees for Dogs (8yrs and up) is $150 Adult Dogs is $400 and Puppies under a year is $500

Story
Kona Belgian Malinois (Female, 12–14 Months) Fostered in Columbus, NJ Rescued by Trina & Friends K9 Rescue This stunning 44-lb Malinois will be ready for adoption in a few weeks as she finishes healing from her spay. She spent 10 days in the Trenton municipal shelter before rescue stepped in to ensure safe placement. She is intelligent, high-energy, food-motivated, and deeply loyal once she bonds. Initially shy, she warms up beautifully with patience and structure. She does not resource guard food, toys, or people. If a ball is present she can become over-aroused and slightly nippy, which is actively being addressed through impulse-control training. She currently walks 2–3 miles daily, enjoys yard play, and receives consistent mental enrichment. She is crate training, learning basic obedience, and building household manners. She does not chew or destroy blankets, bedding, toys, or furniture. Best Fit: Experienced, breed-savvy adopter only Active lifestyle (daily exercise required) Continued positive-reinforcement training Structured home with clear boundaries Fenced yard preferred (5 ft+) Not suitable for first-time owners Not suitable for homes with young or non-dog-savvy children She would thrive in agility, dock diving, sport work, hiking, or an engaged companion home that understands working breeds. Preference given to NJ/PA adopters to allow foster support during transition. She has tremendous potential in the right hands. Only experienced adopters will be considered. If you believe you are the right fit, please complete an adoption application. Apply here https://www.trinafriendsk9rescue.org/new-page
