Belgian Malinois

A distinguished gentleman

Sep 2, 2024 - Kala and Keira, two shelter dogs who were hours from certain death by euthanization, proved that hugs can save lives. Two hours and six minutes after a photo of Kala, the brown dog, hugging her friend was posted on Facebook, they found a foster home willing to take them in and save them from certain death.

The Belgian Malinois breed of dogs does not have a very ancient past, as it appeared at the beginning of the 19th century, in Belgium. In fact, this is only one of four breeds related to each other: Tervuren (long coat with a black mask), Groenendael (black long coat), Laekenois (fawn, coarse coat), and Malinois (short coat with a black mask). Here you can find a marvelous name for your Belgian Malinois puppy.

Belgian Malinois are amazing police dogs, but they can be challenging pets. Learn why their high energy and training needs might not suit your home.
