Moshe - Belgian Shepherd Malinois and Mixed Breed Dog for Adoption in Minneapolis, Minnesota

If you are looking for a loyal companion who will shower you with affection, look no further than Moshe! This 3-year-old, 44-pound Belgian Malinois mix has a heart of gold and is a true people dog who wants nothing more than to be right by your side.

Moshe is house-trained, fully vetted, and neutered. He walks decently on a leash, knows some basic commands, and is eager to learn more, especially if treats are involved! He has a moderate energy level and loves walks, fetch, tug-of-war, and spending time with his people.

Moshe is also wonderfully goofy. You may find him sleeping flat on his back with all four legs in the air, or spinning in circles when the zoomies hit! He loves music, too, especially slow '90s country, and will happily settle in next to you to enjoy the tunes. When he's ready to relax, Moshe is always happy to claim an open spot on the couch for some serious snuggle time. He also does well entertaining himself with his favorite toys and stuffies.

Moshe is looking for a home where he can be the only dog and the center of attention. He can get jealous when he has to share the spotlight, but he actually doesn't mind cats. He would do best with older children who can participate in his playtime and give him all the belly rubs he desires. Because Moshe is highly people-oriented, he would thrive in a home where someone works from home or is around often.

Moshe has had a big transition in his life, coming to us from Hawaii after being surrendered to Animal Control. Despite his past, he has adjusted beautifully in his foster home and shown just how loving and affectionate he can be.

If you're looking for a loyal, goofy pup who will be your walking buddy, fetch partner, music-listening companion, and professional snuggle buddy, Moshe may be your guy!

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.
