Honey - Belgian Shepherd Malinois and Shepherd Dog for Adoption in New Washoe City, Nevada

Meet Honey! True to her Belgian Malinois blend, this pretty lady is equal parts brain, heart, and quirky personality. At roughly a year and a half old with a birthday of November 25, 2024, Honey is looking for an experienced, adult-only home where her goofy character and intelligence can truly shine.
Honey is house trained with doggy door experience, spayed, microchipped, and current on vaccinations. She gets along wonderfully with other dogs and loves sharing toy time with her canine friends. While fetch isn't really her style, she is an absolute water fanatic who lives for swimming and chasing or playing with the hose. Car rides currently make her a bit nervous, but her foster family is working on building her confidence.

Because Belgian Malinois mixes are working dogs, we feel Honey will do best in an adult home with an experienced owner who understands the breed. If you have working breed experience and are ready for a loyal, water-loving companion, please fill out an application so we can tell you more about her and schedule a visit!
