Only those with prior dog ownership and training expertise are advised to own a Malinois due to their high level of energy and sensitive nature. Malinois are extremely intense canines that enjoy taking part in all family events. They are not suitable for folks who must travel frequently or work long hours while keeping their pets at home.
You should introduce your Malinois to a variety of persons, dogs, other pets, and circumstances. This is a very important part of socialization. Your Malinois puppy is advised to enrol in pup kindergarten classes before enrolling in an obedience program.
Malinois are eager to help their people and are fast learners. Obedience, hunting, agility, flyball, penning, displaying, Schutzhund and other protection activities, disaster response, and detective work are all areas where they excel. They are described by trainers as having a strong "play drive" which refers to their love of playing and the fact that practically everything you request them to do would be fun for them.
Your vet Derby is a valuable resource when it comes to issues that affect your pet’s health and behaviour.
