Description
Dog Breed: Belgian Shepherd Malinois. Adoption Fee: $425. ____________________________________________________________ Coordinator: Chris Wood Rin came to us from a FL shelter after being picked up as a stray. When no one reclaimed him, ABMR stepped in. His name means “clear water” or “lustrous,” and he is proving to live up to his name. His body language is easy to read, and he is shining in every way. Rin is a tall drink of water who weighs in at 71 pounds. He is a beautiful sable Malinois who hikes about 4 miles each morning. He demonstrated his ability for “sit” and “paw” while at the shelter, and he is now being introduced to crate training, house manners, and recall. Once he is settled, he will be working on obedience training. Thus far, he is integrating into his foster pack well and getting along with the other dogs. Rin seems to follow their lead for both appropriate and expected behaviors. He is exhibiting some prey drive, and we expect that to increase as he becomes more comfortable in the home. Rin will be a wonderful addition to an active, loving family who understands the needs of a Malinois! ABMR thanks you for taking the time to look at our malinois available for adoption.

Breed overview
Overview:
A mongrel, mutt, or mixed-breed dog, is a dog that is not the result of breeding within an existing breed or to modify or create a breed and belongs to no breed. In the United States, the term "mixed-breed" is a favored synonym over "mongrel" among many who wish to avoid negative connotations associated with the latter term. The implication that such dogs must be a mix of defined breeds may stem from an inverted understanding of the origins of dog breeds. Pure breeds have been, for the most part, artificially created from random-bred populations by human selective breeding with the purpose of enhancing desired physical, behavioral, or temperamental characteristics. Dogs that are not purebred are not necessarily a mix of such defined breeds. Therefore, among experts and fans of such dogs, "Mongrel" is still the preferred term.
