Story
Rocky: The Pocket-Sized Malinois with Big Energy Name’s Rocky. I’m a Belgian Malinois mix. I'm a little smaller than most of my kind, but don’t let my size fool you—I’m still every bit the classic Malinois package: smart, energetic, and always up for action. I was relinquished by my owner, so now I’m looking for someone who understands a dog like me. I thrive on play—chase, tug, fetch—you name it, I’m in. I’m a good listener, too, especially when you give me a job to do. Car rides? Love them. Anxiety? Not my thing. Other dogs? They're my buddies! Here’s the real talk: I need a person who can guide me, set boundaries, and help me channel all this brainpower and energy into something positive. With the right structure, I’ll be your loyal adventure buddy and snuggle partner all in one. Older kids are fine by me. Shots are up to date, I’m neutered, and I’m ready to start fresh. If you’re looking for a smaller-sized Malinois with a big heart and even bigger potential, I’m your guy.   ##2347586##

Story
Hello, Future Family! Ready for some love, cuddles, and playing fetch? MALIBU: READY TO RUN, READY TO LOVE Hi, I’m Malibu—part pittie, part Malinois, and all heart. I’m sweet, spunky, and ready to find a human who matches my vibe: active, committed, and looking for a loyal best friend. At just around 2 years old, I’ve got energy to spare and a brain that loves to work. I need both physical and mental exercise every day—walks, runs, puzzle toys, training games, you name it. When I don’t get that outlet, I get restless. A long stay in a kennel is not my thing. I’m built for adventure, connection, and movement. ‍ Let’s move: Whether it’s hiking, jogging, or biking, I’m up for it. I love to run alongside your bike, match your pace, and take in the world by your side. I’m a smart cookie: I listen to commands and love learning new things. Give me a challenge, and I’ll rise to it. Kid compatibility: I do well with older kids (16+). The little ones? They’re cute, but their unpredictability can make me nervous. Cats: Hard no. They move too fast, and I’m just too tempted to chase. House skills: I’m crate trained, very clean, and doing great with potty training. Personality check: I’m playful, focused, and super excited about life. I’ll be your loyal shadow, your running partner, and your cuddle bug once we’ve bonded. I do best as your one and only—but with me, you won’t need anyone else. Details: About 1.9 years old High energy Spayed Up to date on shots Best in an active home with older kids. Dogs? Only if it's a proper pairing.  Ready to see what life could look like with a sweet, driven girl like me? Let’s go. I’ve got the energy—and the love—you’ve been missing. Let’s thrive together. Fully vetted, vaccinated, and house-trained Professionally trained in basics (sit, stay, walking on leash, etc) – includes 1 FREE trainer session at trainer's location for adopters Foster-to-adopt option available – all costs during fostering are covered by us - food, medical, etc ##2257161##

Story
Freckles is a 9-month old sweetheart. She is 37# and possibly Australian cattle dog Belgian malinois mix. She has the cutest freckle face and a cuddly soft coat. Just adorable!! She is higher energy, as the breed guess would suggest, but does not show any herding habits. She has never met a dog that she didn’t love and accepts the fact that they may not love her back with a friendly, I can change your mind attitude. She is highly food motivated and eager to please so with some training she could be amazing. She is already house trained, crate trained and knows sit. Because of her desire for play, she would thrive in a home with a playmate or a human who has time to play and give her jobs. She’s a wonderful girl looking for a wonderful home. If you would like to meet this dog, please call or text Lorri, at 630-659-8814. Text is preferred. The adoption fee is $275. Adoption fee includes: - microchip - spay/neuter - age appropriate vaccinations: Bordetella, DH(L)PP, rabies - heartworm preventive & flea/tick preventive - deworming
