Bennie - Belgian Shepherd Malinois Dog for Adoption in Pasadena, California

Bennie is a super affectionate Malinois. We estimate her age to be around 6 years old. She is spayed, fully vaccinated and very healthy. She was rescued from a working dog facility that went into foreclosure. All of the 22 shepherds on the property were going to be sent to the shelter but luckily our rescue, along with multiple other rescues stepped up to save these dogs. She LOVES people. She has never met a human she didn't love. We don't know how she is around kids but we expect she will be fine around children. She is friendly with other dogs as long as she has been properly introduced. Does best with male dogs. She is a VERY SMART dog. As a working breed, she thrives on having a task. She would do best in a home where she can get adequate exercise. She currently goes to doggie daycare with other working breeds. In the home, she is cuddly, sleeps through the night, is polite, does not get bothered by visitors or anyone coming to the house. She does not do well with cats. Bennie is a true love bug.
