Story
She is an amazing dog, but we just have no time for her. Plus have 11 months old baby. She needs someone who can give her a lot of attention and training. She would be perfect match for someone who loves the outdoors. The Belgian Malinois is a powerful working dog breed coming from Belgium. While they are fascinating and beautiful, they will not be the best choice for a family pet dog. She is very special and deserves only the best possible owner who can give her an amazing life and every day training.
