MILLIE - NJ - BELGIAN SHEPHERD MALINOIS DOG FOR ADOPTION

Description

Dog Breed: Belgian Shepherd Malinois. Adoption Fee: 375. ____________________________________________________________ Coordinator: Valerie Sharp If you ever looked up the word resilience, you might just find Millie’s picture smiling back at you. This remarkable lady has faced more than her fair share of challenges and emerged with an unshakable spirit and an incredibly loving heart. Millie was found roaming the streets of Brooklyn, likely abandoned by a breeder once she was no longer “useful.” She bears a few old injuries including to her ear and leg but she wears them with grace, giving her a distinguished, classy charm that only adds to her character. Don’t let her age fool you, Millie still brings the heat. She regularly gives young Malinois a run for their money and often outplays a 3-year-old male in a game of fetch. Ball is life for Millie, and she’ll happily keep playing as long as you can keep up. She has the street smarts of a true Brooklyn girl and the heart of Dolly Parton. Millie is currently thriving in a foster home with multiple dogs of different breeds, sizes, and ages, including a Malinois, a Basset Hound, and two Pit Bulls. She gets along well with other dogs, is friendly with strangers, and does great with kids. Millie has basic obedience training, does well in a crate, and is comfortable both indoors and outdoors. She’s a total people lover that expects hugs, gentle nudges for pets, and instant devotion. Anyone who meets her falls in love almost immediately. She would do best in a home familiar with the needs of a Malinois and willing to manage some minor medical care, such as monitoring her ear, which can be prone to infections. In return, Millie offers boundless enthusiasm, unwavering loyalty, and a whole lot of love. Millie is proof that age is just a number and that an experienced, energetic dog can bring more joy than you ever imagined. Millie is currently fostered in New Jersey and looking for her forever home. Pup cups required.
