Belgian Malinois
The Belgian Malinois (MAL-in-wah) a variety of the Belgian Shepherd Dog that is registered by the American Kennel Club as a separate breed.
They are medium size dog of exceptional beauty and working ability used for many purposes, including herding, tracking, agility, obedience, and police work. They are similar in appearance to the German Shepherd Dog, but upon closer inspection, distinct differences can be seen including size, bone structure, colour, and head and ear shape.
The Belgian is generally a lighter, quicker, more agile dog. They are also generally a more "high energy" dog.
Belgian Rescue
Though highly sought out by law enforcement agencies, many dogs that fail to make the grade find their way into Belgian Rescue homes such as ABMC Rescue. This is not to say there is anything wrong with these dogs, usually the problem is the animal is too friendly or docile for the work and thus makes an excellent family pet. When looking for a Belgian, we recommend first contacting a rescue organisation for both information on this breed and a potential pet.
