Belgian Shepherd Malinois and Affenpinscher Dogs Available for Adoption in Wasilla, Alaska

**LOCATED IN ANCH/MATSU**
Tango
Nine Weeks Old
Spayed Female
Belgian Malinois Mix
Started On Vaccines
Microchipped

Tango is a puppy with a softer, more reserved personality. Thoughtful and observant, Tango likes a little time to take in new situations before jumping right in, but once she feels comfortable, her sweet and intelligent personality shines through.

Tango has been working on early confidence-building and socialization through The Better Companion Day Training, where she has been exposed to:
Other puppies and adult dogs
Cats
New sounds, surfaces, and environments
Gentle handling and enrichment activities
Positive reinforcement-based training foundations

Tango would do best in a patient and supportive home that understands confidence-building is a process, not a race. She is already learning that the world can be safe, predictable, and rewarding, and continued positive experiences will help her blossom beautifully. Tango really is a very perfect puppy, she is so good with the other dogs and just wants held.

Like any Belgian Malinois puppy, Tango will need ongoing training, enrichment, structure, and appropriate outlets for her working-dog brain. She may be a little more thoughtful than her sister, but she is every bit as smart and capable - and likely to form an incredibly close bond with her future person.
