SOUTHEAST RESCUES

AL, FL, GA, KY, LA, MS, NC, SC, TN


These Rescues are currently available in the Southeast area of the country. If you are interested in adopting one of the Malinois profiled in these pages contact the foster home listed in the profile.

A NOTE TO POLICE OFFICERS, SAR GROUPS
AND OTHERS LOOKING FOR WORKING MALINOIS:

Many police officers/trainers/SAR groups approach Malinois rescue looking for young dogs to train. Most of our rescued dogs are not suitable for these types of jobs. Some of our rescued Malinois are actually dogs that have been rejected by police departments due to their inability to do the job. While we are not opposed to adopting dogs out as working dogs, we adopt only to individuals, never to organizations or police departments. Most of our rescued Malinois have had difficult beginnings in life. The majority will make fantastic family pets, but most of them do not have the temperament needed to work day after day with a police officer or in search and rescue. All dogs adopted through Malinois rescue will be spayed or neutered prior to placement.




Bear approx 18 mo male - FL

Fee: $250

Photo of Malinois Foster Bear - 23KB

Bear is dark of color - and big of feet and ears. He is estimated to be about eighteen months or less

and is still growing into some of his very handsome shape. He currently weighs 62 pounds, and will probably weigh 75 pounds or more at maturity. He is new to the rescue program, and seems to have suffered some trauma related to what appear to be dog bite injuries. He is completely healed externally other than some very minor scars, but he remains shy and sensitive. He is quite smart, and has shown himself to be a quick learner. He is very sweet, and is hungry for affection, often asking for his head to be rubbed. He positively glows under encouragement and praise.

Bear plays enthusiastically with Dino, his foster brother, and tends to be submissive in their tussling.

He is house broken, but has not yet accepted that the sofa is completely off limits. He loves long walks, playing, and being part of an active family. He will fetch and return a ball with enthusiasm. He will sit and stay. Bear needs love and will return all love given several times over.

For more information about Bear, please contact: Dave.

Your Malinois Rescue adoption application must go to the coordinator for this Malinois Foster. Only this specific link to the application for this Malinois will automatically be processed and sent to Sara, Bear's coordinator.

Boomer – A Before & After Story for the Ages
If you are a regular rescue visitor you've probably read Boomer's Story now he is once again in need of a new home.

Boomer was brought back from the brink of death by the help of his foster mom and the contributions of numerous friends of Malinois Rescue. He stayed in foster care for almost a year before he was physically able to be adopted out to a wonderful new mom.

Boomer's new adoptive home had planned to live with him on a small farm in NC. But circumstances changed, and Boomer has moved to a condo in FL and it is not working for either of them.

Boomer is a wonderful quirky funny boy. If he joins your family you will have a "Boomer" story every day to share with your friends. He lives with a female GSD and would prefer to be an only dog or live with a female dog. At his foster home he lived in harmony with 9 of 10 dogs.

He is approximately 5 or 6 years old, and a lingering medical condition that he had is being treated successfully by monitoring his water intake instead of having him on a daily injection. Please help Boomer find the home he is looking for and give him a chance. He is of course up to date on his shots, HW negative, neutered and micro-chipped.

For more information about Boomer, please contact: Sara

Devon ideal home would be an older family with maybe a cat and a cool kitchen floor to enjoy.

Devon is a shy girl who would do best in a relatively quiet household. She will be cool to strangers or people who move fast or are loud. With a little time, Devon warms up and actually relaxes and shyly approaches for attention. She wants a friend and love, she is just unsure of people. She eats great and hasn't had an accident in the house. She is as quiet as a mouse in her crate and does require encouragement to leave the crate. I think she will be safe with cats and other dogs and I think with time she will trust both men and women. Devon would not do well in a home with young children but she is becoming very bonded to the foster home's teenage son. She enjoys playing ball and chewing on rawhides. An

Dino - Very gentle!

Dino is thought to be eighteen to twenty months old. He weighs 62 pounds, and is quite handsome. Dino has probably finished growing. He has yet to meet the person he does not like, and is very gentle, except sometimes when he gets too excited he has been known to briefly forget the rules and jump up on people, usually as a sign of welcome when they first arrive at the house. He sits well and stays briefly. He is fully house broken and he currently has the run of the house and yard. He will announce-bark, but does not nuisance-bark.

He likes to run and play, or sit quietly in the same room with his people. He also loves to go for long walks. Sometimes he enjoys fetch, but this is a game we have not worked on much, and so far he can take it or leave it.

He shied away from a ten month old baby, but enjoyed the children he met who are ten to twelve or older. He has shown only a passing interest in cats, rabbits, squirrels etc.

For more information about Dino, please contact: Dave.

It has been such a joy to watch Jerry Lee blossom over the last nine months.

Jerry Lee is a beautiful, 55 lb. Belgian Malinois. He is 3 years old, fully vetted, neutered and in excellent health. Heartworm and flea treatment are due on 2/3. He has been trained and knows all his basic commands. He is crate-trained and gets on very well with cats and other dogs.

I adopted him last April and have worked with him extensively. Somewhere in his past, there was something very traumatic that has made him timid but never aggressive. It has been such a joy to watch him blossom over the last nine months. He's learned that he is very happy to go outside to run and play, that he doesn't have to be in his crate to feel safe and that his tail can wag and not have to be kept tucked in. So being a dog is pretty great after all!

Although he is doing much better, he is simply not a good match for my family. He would do best in a home without small children and time constraints.

Jerry Lee needs a forever home with a patient, firm and gentle person who can spend the one-on-one time to finish up his training. He will also need a big yard to run and play as he is true to the malinois breed with high energy and prey drive and needs a 6' fence. He would be an excellent candidate for agility training. He walks well on a leash and loves long walks.

For more information on Jerry Lee, please contact: Brenda.

Joker 7 mo old neutered male - GA

Fee: $250

New Photo!

Joker is a big boy who's full of life and energy.

He's up to date on shots, microchipped and neutered. At 7 months of age, he is close to 26" at his withers and he's not done growing yet. Joker is full of himself and has a zest for life. He's even been known to toss stuff toys into the air to play with them and doesn't "kill" his toys like many Belgians do. He is food motivated and adores praise.

Joker is not a Velcro dog, and needs to learn to come when called, but he knows "sit" and can be coaxed into a "down." He has not learned "stay" well yet, but as noted above, he can be bribed with food easily. He does like to grab at arms and clothing – not to bite, but just to seek attention. Joker would greatly appreciate a course in puppy obedience to help refine his manners and improve his focus. He loves to go on walks but does pull on the leash, so once again, he would benefit from an obedience class. He does ride well crated in the car.

Joker gets along with all dogs of both genders and will accept being appropriately chastised when his behavior is a bit over the top. He is a bit too interested in cats – so a no cat home would be necessary. Joker wants to be in the house in the middle of any activity. He's not learned the finer points of being graceful yet, and for this reason, he would prefer a home without toddlers so that he doesn't run completely over someone.

Joker likes to wade in the baby pool in the back yard, and it is quite amusing to watch him trying to "eat" the water as he walks. He enjoys going to PetSmart and choosing a toy, as well as meeting all the people and dogs in the store. He does tend to guard his chew toy from other dogs, quietly growling whenever he thinks one of them is too close. Joker does need work on "let go" when his humans request that he relinquish the toy.

You can see Joker playing with a dog friend and also walking around a park here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qwP0HL0An1w.

Joker would like to have a family who is familiar with the Belgian breed and understands how to set limits and rules for him. He would love to learn how to herd, do agility, and certainly would love to attend an obedience class or two. If you know this breed Joker might be a fit for your lifestyle.

For more information about Joker, please contact: Tess

Ramsey 1.5 yr old neutered male - GA

Fee: $250

Ramsey is a Rambunctious Sweetheart with a CGC Title!

Handsome Ramsey was found as a stray in Mississippi. He is estimated to be about a year and a half old and has the prettiest golden eyes. In addition to his good looks, he is a smart boy who has passed both Basic Obedience and Canine Good Citizen (CGC) tests with flying colors!

Although Ramsey does well in his classes, he is still a teenage Malinois who loves to rough and tumble for hours at time with his male Malinois foster brother and sisters. Moving furniture around is no problem for this gang! Because he is anxious to please, he does settle down with limited correction, but still needs a home that will continue to work with him on obedience, which is a great outlet for his energy and intelligence.

Ramsey also likes to chill out with his humans, and when he does, he snuggles with you with just as much enthusiasm and love as he plays with his Malinois buddies. He walks well on a leash, rides well in the car and allows you or the vet to handle him with no problems. Ramsey also crates well and enjoys playing with toys, but a word of caution – Ramsey will pick up toys, clothes, blankets or whatever is left within his reach!

Ramsey does well with larger children, but he is a tall energetic boy and interaction with little people must be supervised. He loves both male and female dogs and would love a play buddy to run with, but he has never been around small dogs.

Ramsey is neutered, housebroken, crate trained, up-to-date on vaccinations, micro-chipped and heartworm negative.

Can you give Ramsey a loving home with lots of attention and time for exerting his energy and intelligence?

For more information about Ramsey, please contact: Monica.

New Photo 12/30/09

UPDATE! 01/20/10 Skylar has become very outgoing with people.

In the training group he never leaves or enters the field without going up to everyone to say hello before starting his training exercises.

He loves going to training and is always quite happy to show off his new skills. He takes things in stride and adjust rather quickly to a lot of the distractions thrown his way during training. He has shown he is more then willing to work through things that bothered him before.

Skylar may make a nice first time sport dog for someone. His obedience is very nice and he loves it. He also has his retrieve with the dumbbell over both jumps and on the flat. The a-frame is not a problem for him and his attention in his heeling is very nice. He holds nice eye contact throughout obedience and is doing well in his moving sits, downs and stands.

He is showing nice transition changes from sit to down to stand. He has a beautiful recall right in front and nice heeling placement.

He is working on his downs while I am out of sight and learning to hold them. This was hard for Sky at first just because he loves being where I am but is staying in place. His time is being gradually increased and he is doing well with it.

Although he loves his kong he is loving the tug toy as well and has a hard strong tug and is getting his loss command as well. Sky has no trouble bringing back either the tug or the kong and loves the interaction with people and toys.

Skylar will NOT be placed in a home with other dogs. Although he is working on social skills with dogs and is getting better he still needs an only dog home. He will require a fenced in yard as well and will not be placed in a home without a fenced in yard. A kennel or kennel run does not qualify as a fenced in yard for him.

I have not had him around small children and with his size and his exuberance for his kong I will not place him in a home with children.

Although he does love his kong he is not suitable for a "working" dog but what he is suitable for is a great companion for someone who enjoys a dog that is more then willing to learn and enjoys playing with their dog.

If he is adopted near here K-9 Prospective will offer free training on him but you must be willing to bring him here for training. The details will be worked out at the time of his adoption.

For more information about Skylar, please contact: Lynne

Your Malinois Rescue adoption application must go to the coordinator for this Malinois Foster. Only this specific link to the application for this Malinois will automatically be processed and sent to Marcia, Skylar's coordinator.
