Story
COURTESY LISTINGThis dog is a courtesy listing (not in the AARF program) but we will be reviewing applications and helping the owner find the right home for Mali. Please visit http://aarf-tn.com/adopt/adoption-app/ to apply. Mali is an energetic, intelligent girl who lights up when she has a job to do and a person to love. This 3.5 year old, 55 pound Belgian Malinois is active, athletic, and happiest when she is moving, learning, or exploring the world alongside her favorite human. Mali loves jogging, hiking, walking, and turning everyday outings into adventures, especially if squirrels are involved. She is incredibly smart and knows an impressive list of commands including sit, down, stay, come, heel, place, wait at doors, find it, and going into her crate. She truly enjoys working and learning, although she is not a candidate for service dog work. Training for fun, enrichment, and bonding is where she shines. She can be a bit reserved with new people at first, but with treats, patience, and a walk, she warms up nicely. She is very clean in the house, fully crate trained, and when she is crated she primarily naps while her owner is gone. Mali loads easily into the car and walks beautifully on leash when given clear direction. She bonds deeply with her person and wants nothing more than to be someone’s loyal, devoted best girl. Mali would do best in an active, dog-savvy home that understands the breed and enjoys regular exercise and training. A quieter household without cats or young children and with a confident, similar-sized male dog companion would likely be the best fit. If Mali sounds like the perfect adventure partner for you, please contact us for more information.  Interested in adopting? Take the first step and complete an adoption application on our website: http://aarf-tn.com/adopt/adoption-apps/ If you have questions that are not covered in the profile, visit the Pet Inquiry Form: http://aarf-tn.com/contact/pet-inquiry-form/. THIS PET IS FOSTERED IN TENNESSEE! We do list and adopt our pets nationwide. Typical transport cost to the Northeast is $180. Due to interstate adoption regulations, we are not able to adopt to RI and MA state residents. A.A.R.F. (All About Rescue and Fixin' Inc.) http://aarf-tn.com/ is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) no kill animal rescue organization located in the Upper Cumberland area of Tennessee. A.A.R.F. is comprised of unpaid volunteers and survives only on public donations. Thank you for thinking adoption first! Prior to adoption, all canines and felines are spayed or neutered, have received their age appropriate vaccinations, have been de-wormed for common parasites, and have received treatment for prevention of fleas and ticks. All canines over the age of 6 months have been tested for heartworm. All canines are put on heartworm prevention as soon as possible - this means dogs as soon as they are tested negative. Puppies are put on prevention immediately. All felines, regardless of age, have been tested for Feline Leukemia/FIV. Each animal receives a health check by a licensed veterinarian prior to adoption. Anything else found will be treated by our organization prior to adoption. January 9, 2026, 2:56 pm

Story
Meet Ranger, the intelligent and active Belgian Malinois/German Shepherd mix with a heart full of love and boundless energy. This handsome boy is a fast learner and has mastered essential commands like sit, down, wait, and shake. He's so clever that he tackled a level 3 puzzle on his first try! Ranger is a well-behaved and well-trained pup, making him a pleasure to have around the house. He's house trained, crate trained, and shows no signs of destructiveness indoors. However, he does experience some separation anxiety when his human leaves the house, which is why he's kept in his crate during errands. But don't worry, when he's playing in the backyard with his furry friend, he's perfectly content and doesn't exhibit any separation anxiety. Ranger is an active boy who loves going on walks, and he'll gladly accompany you on all your outdoor adventures. While Ranger is intelligent and affectionate, he can be barrier reactive, meaning he may react when he encounters certain barriers or boundaries. Patience and positive reinforcement training can help him overcome this behavior. This is very typical behavior for both breeds and he absolutely has to be adopted into a Mali/GSD knowledgeable family/ Ranger was in pretty rough shape when rescued and the vet initially thought he had an intestinal disease. Nothing was definitively diagnosed but the vet believes he has small intestinal issues. He is on a folate vitamin daily and will just need annual lab work and a high quality RAW FOOD diet. Ranger's charm and charisma shine through in the photos and videos provided, capturing his playful and loving nature. If you're looking for a smart, active, and affectionate companion, Ranger is the perfect match. Give him the love and care he deserves, and he'll reward you with loyalty and companionship like no other. Local adoption fee is $200 (in TX) Out of state adoption fee is $400 (includes transport to your area - $50 Temporary Fuel Charge will be added)

Django🤎 Django is the male—substantially larger than his sister. He’s super playful but incredibly eager to train and please. He’ll go out and and run around the yard with her, then come right back, sit in front of you, and wait… he's ready for sure 🤎 This boy is an open book, just waiting for his pages to be written. Django is going to be a big boy, and his presence will be known by his gorgeous, raw hunkiness 😉 His calm demeanor will make him an incredible partner—very typical of the breed with their sensitivity and deep desire to connect with their person. This boy will not disappoint 💙 He’s treat motivated (huge plus), eager to be part of something meaningful, and bonds quickly. He does fine in the crate after a few minutes—though he throws a brief fit at first 😅 He’ll get it… he just firmly believes he belongs in the center of all things. The loyalty and connection this breed thrives on is what makes them such incredible working dogs. Their ethics often outperform their two-legged leaders 😳 They thrive on excitement, positive energy, and strong connection—which fuels their work ethic. Django will bond deeply with his people and will literally do anything for them. It’s written all over his DNA. Now don’t get me wrong… his crazy is absolutely in there 😅 It just hasn’t been fully unlocked yet. And I think I’ll leave that to the new adopter 🤣 Crash🩷 Now… his sister. And no, that’s not a very feminine, ladylike name—but she is exactly true to form 😁😳 Crash is the Belgian Malinois with a little dark side, a whole lot of tenacity, a serious amount of spunk, and probably just a dash of crazy thrown in 😅 She’s on the smaller side—about Moxie-sized, 30–35 lbs—but don’t underestimate her. She’s the antagonizer… maybe even the enforcer 🤣 Her gorgeous good looks will get her invited to the party and possibly thrown out 🤣 Her spunk and chaos make people question why they invited her… but let’s be honest—everybody wants her there 😅🤣 She is the party 😲😂 She reminds me a lot of Tango—confident, a little aloof. She likes treats, but she’s not necessarily going to do the job for them. You’ll need to figure out her love language 🥴 Her work ethic will be determined by her and the relationship she chooses to build with her owner 😉 She may be considered a little reckless—but she’s a whole lot of fun and absolutely worth the energy it takes to build that bond and turn her into an incredible dog 💙 Please Read This Part Stunning babies… and let me say this—because I always say it, and somehow still get applications from people who don’t qualify and are definitely not going to commit: 👉 You need breed experience—or a 100% commitment to learn. Local ( In Texas $250 adoption fee) Out of state $500 plus fuel charge

Story
🐾 Meet Waffles! 🐾 Age: 3 years old Breed: Belgian Malinois Mix Status: Spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines and preventions Waffles is a stunning, smart, and athletic Belgian Malinois mix looking for her forever family! At 3 years old, she’s past the puppy stage but still full of energy and enthusiasm. This girl is incredibly sweet and eager to please, but she will thrive best with a breed knowledgeable owner who understands both the mental and physical needs of a Malinois. Waffles loves a good game of fetch, and she’ll happily play for hours if you let her. She has had professional training, which makes her a fantastic partner for someone who enjoys structure, exercise, and continued learning. Her trainer is also willing to work with her new adopters should they like to continue her training. Like many Malinois, she has prey drive and will definitely keep the squirrels out of your yard. With cats, she’ll need slow, careful introductions. If they run, she may want to chase. She does well with other non-dominant dogs, but proper introductions are important to set her up for success. If you’re looking for a loyal, athletic, and intelligent companion who will love adventure as much as she loves downtime with her people, Waffles could be the perfect match. 💌 Could Waffles be your new best friend? Apply today and give this amazing girl the home she deserves! $200 Local Adoption Fee (in Texas) $450 Out of State Fee (includes transportation to your area)
