Belgian Shepherd Malinois Dogs Available for Adoption in Cincinnati, Ohio

Meet Shiggy!

Bandit is male Begian Malinois, 4 months old at the end of April 2026 2026, and currently weighs around 22 pounds. More pics to come!

This beautiful boy is in need of a new home. His family is going through a tough time and are not able to provide the time and care a young puppy needs.

Bandit is super friendly! He loves people, kids and dogs. He is still untested with cats, but a dog savvy cat may be able to teach him the ropes. Typical of the breed, and still a puppy, Bandit has lots of energy expenditure requirements. He is highly intelligent and toy motivated. He would excel with training and is already learning basic commands.

Shiggy loves belly rubs and snuggling his people. He quickly settles in his crate and is at an age appropriate stage in house training. While he hasn't chewed any off-limit items of value in the home, common sense puppy proofing is still required.

Shiggy is the whole package! He just needs his person to take him home forever.
