My close friend who is your dog trainer offered his 5-year old Belgian Malinois to me for adoption. So he could defend his grasp, bite on command, relieve the bite on command, remain until released and the others he's educated as a protection dog. He's a trophy as next placer in Level 1 protection in a protection dog competition. I have two dogs at present: An one year-old and a nine month-old Labrador... both are girls, obedience educated and not neutered.
I'd prefer to adopt him and I know I may take care of him. Will he accept me after being my friend's favorite dog for 5-years? My friend assured me that he can shift the loyalty of your dog to me. He's a fierce dog when in competition but a very quiet dog when away from training band. Discover more about open in a new browser by visiting our great essay. In reality my friend gives the dog with him on a regular basis and I know of several occasions that the dog is off leash. He's offering him up because he wants to restore him with a dog.
Should I simply take him up on his offer?
Precious Mackie:
Yes... Your dog will shift his loyalty for you.
Listed below are two major problems you should think about before adopting this dog:
1. The Belgian Malinois (particularly one that is bred and educated for defense dog sports) and chunk work will require plenty of work IN YOUR PART to find out how to handle this dog. You are going to need a large amount of training... one-on-one style... to effectively incorporate this dog into your life. It's like driving a Ferrari or even a race car. The vehicle already works great, but when you don't understand the right way to push it, you'll wind up killing yourself. And simply because you already know how to drive a Subaru does not reduce it... We are talking Ferrari, here. And the Belgian Malinois is really a Ferrari with the tricked-out Turbo motor.
2. The breed is an extremely HIGH DRIVE breed. This dog needs A lot of exercise and emotional stimulation. LOADS. Please make an effort to acknowledge that using this dog will be a important responsibility.
If you decide to do it, and you are effective, you'll have an incredible friend. The type is very healthier and you might be content in understanding that you own a KING OF KINGS so far as working dogs are involved.
A part of me has always wanted that which you are considering getting. But my lifestyle and devotion for the training and exercise needs are something I do not need as of this current point in my life.
P.S. Be sure that the dog is not dog hostile before you decide to take possession.
That's all for the time being, folks!
