ves everyone she meets. She even ignores the cats! She is good with people, even savvy children with appropriate introductions. She is a bit dog-selective, but is doing well with the dogs in her current foster home. She does not like rude, in-your-face dogs. This is pretty typical of this breed though, lol. We don't know her past, but Posie has been obviously abused in her "prior life", she came into Rescue emaciated, covered in sores, and heartworm positive. But so loving and trusting. It was humbling. Posie is doing well in her foster home, she has completed her heartworm treatment and is now a very healthy weight. She was recently spayed. She has an old hip injury and has had surgery for this in the past. Overall, Posie gets along fine, it does not bother her too much now. She will be a wonderful lower-energy/drive companion who will accompany you on long walks and play-time in the yard. Posie has a good off-switch in the home and loves to snuggle in a lap.. She has been good left in a closed-off area when her foster is away, although she would do best with someone who is home more often. She is still a Malinois, and will require someone with realistic expectations who will provide consistent and fair training to bring out her best!! For more info on Posie, please PM Dana Mac Posie is in Ohio. She is estimated to be about 3 years old. ABMR thanks you for taking the time to look at our malinois available for adoption.

  1. Do your research - find out what types of dogs would be a good fit for your lifestyle and the activity level of your family. Also keep in mind the grooming needs of certain breeds that might require frequent maintenance.
  2. Decide what you can handle - before you get sucked in by all the adorable puppy eyes you're about to see, think long and hard about the appropriate age dog for your family or if you are capable of caring for a special needs dog. Puppies are a lot of work, if you don't have time for potty training and obedience classes you'll want to consider an older dog. There are plenty of middle aged, vibrant dogs up for adoption as well as many senior dogs that would be a great fit for a family looking for a more subdued dog with lots of love to give.
  3. Learn about the shelters and their adoption policies - It might be easier to start looking at shelters within a certain radius of home but don't be afraid to venture out to other states as well. Many states have larger populations of adoptable dogs and their shelters are willing to transport pets to suitable adopting families. Some shelters might have requirements for a home visit, a fenced yard or require you to visit the pet multiple times before you commit to adopting. Understand that the shelters are doing their best to place the pets in suitable homes and these requirements are in the best interest of both you and the pet
  4. Start looking… - Once you know what you're looking for and what to expect you can start your search through thousands of adoptable dogs. PuppyFinder allows you to search by age, breed, location and gender.
  5. Meet in person. - Whenever possible it is best to meet the animal in person before agreeing to bring them into your life. Even though photos and descriptions can tell you a bit about a dog, you can't get a true feeling for the animal until you are able to interact with them and make sure they are a good fit for your entire family, including other pets.
