Belgian Shepherd Malinois and Mixed Breed Dogs Available for Adoption

Hello. My name is Havana I'm looking for my forever home here at the Humane Society of Tampa Bay. Please come see me you will fall in love I promise. When I arrived here, I was found to be heartworm positive and lucky for me, the nice people here decided to treat me. Don't worry though; I'm still available for adoption today!! I have received my first treatment so I definitely will need to be crate rested and leash walked only for the next 60 days. I may be a little bit more work than some of the other dogs here, but I know I am worth it. Come visit me today and I'll show you why!!!

The Belgian Shepherd Malinois is a versatile and intelligent working dog breed known for its agility, loyalty, and protective nature. Originating from Belgium, these medium-sized dogs have a distinctive short coat in shades of fawn with a black mask. Malinois excel in various roles such as military, police, search and rescue, and as loyal family companions. With proper training and socialization, the Belgian Shepherd Malinois thrives on mental stimulation and physical activity to channel its high energy levels effectively.

The mixed breed dogs, often referred to as mutts, are a diverse and unique group with a blend of different characteristics from various purebred dog breeds. These dogs come from a mixture of lineages, resulting in a wide range of sizes, coat types, and temperaments. While each mixed breed dog is distinct in its own right, they are known for their resilience, adaptability, and often have fewer health issues compared to purebred dogs due to their genetic diversity. Mixed breed dogs make wonderful companions for families looking for a loyal and one-of-a-kind pet.
