Alexander aka Alex KL - Belgian Shepherd Malinois and German Shepherd Dog Dog for Adoption in Austin, Texas

Malinois/German Shepherd Mix Puppies – Experienced Homes ONLY

Yes, they are absolutely STUNNING. But these puppies are not just pretty faces—they are typical Malinois/German Shepherd-type puppies with the intelligence, drive, energy, and intensity that come with these breeds.

At just 10 weeks old, they are still small, but they are expected to grow into 50+ pound adult dogs. And they are already showing us exactly who they are:

• Mouthy and nippy – they are puppies and are still learning appropriate behavior
• High-energy with plenty of squealing, bouncing, and puppy craziness
• Tenacious – they don't give up easily
• Extremely smart and quick to learn
• Driven and intense
• Curious, active, and ready for a job, training, and adventure

These puppies are NOT apartment dogs. They also are not a good match for homes with young children, primarily because of their natural puppy nipping and intensity. They need owners who understand that raising a Malinois/German Shepherd-type dog requires being intentional from day one with training, structure, boundaries, exercise, and mental stimulation.

Breed-specific or very similar breed experience is REQUIRED. We are looking for adopters who truly understand what these dogs are going to become—not simply someone who thinks they are beautiful puppies.

Please understand that we are always picky and tenacious with our applications, but we will be especially tenacious with these puppies. Their future depends on placing them with owners who are prepared for the commitment and intensity of these breeds.

If you have the experience, structure, time, and dedication these puppies need, they could grow into incredible companions.

Beautiful? Absolutely.
Smart? VERY.
Driven? Without a doubt.
Easy? Nope.
Worth it for the right owner? Absolutely!

Adopt responsibly. Know the breed. Know the commitment.

Local adoption fee is $350(in TX)

Out of state adoption fee is $650 (includes transport to your area)
