Meet Arella – A Happy, Smart Malinois Mix Puppy 🐾 Arella is a 3-month-old Malinois mix puppy with a bright personality and a heart full of love. She is smart, happy, and outgoing, and she approaches life with curiosity and confidence. Arella absolutely loves cuddles and kisses and is always ready to soak up affection from her people. She is doing great with crate training and is already showing how eager she is to learn and please. We do have her mom, who looks like a pure Malinois and is an incredibly intelligent, sweet dog, so Arella is off to an amazing start. Arella will thrive in a home that understands the mental and physical needs of a Malinois mix and is excited to continue her training, enrichment, and socialization. With structure, activity, and lots of love, she will grow into an incredible companion. Arella is spayed, microchipped, and up to date on vaccines and preventions. Adoption Fees: 🐾 $250 Local Adoption Fee (Texas) 🐾 $550 Out-of-State Adoption Fee (includes transport) If you’re looking for a joyful, affectionate puppy who will grow into a smart and loyal best friend, Arella may be the perfect match for you. 🖤🐾

Story
Draco came as an owner surrender due to not having the experience with the breed. Draco is a 1 yr old shepherd true to the breed. He would do best with an active family with breed experience. Draco needs all basic and extensive training he did not receive as a puppy. He LOVES people and is very affectionate. He is extremely vocal - especially when meeting other dogs - but does well with other calm docile medium/large dogs. Preference to fenced in yard If you're interested, please fill out an application on our website. www.naugatuckanimalcontrol.com
