Valiant spent weeks roaming near Lake Berryessa after being dumped with his siblings. He’s a 10-month-old Belgian Malinois on the gentler side for his breed—shy, sensitive, and in need of steady reassurance. The world feels big and overwhelming to him, so he’s looking for a home where patience and a calm energy come naturally. Once Valiant feels safe, he shows his playful spirit, especially around other dogs. He truly comes alive in canine company, making him a great fit for a household that already has a dog ready to show him the ropes. Valiant’s adoption fee is sponsored. Give him the support, structure, and time he needs, and you’ll get a devoted companion eager to bond and learn. Ready to meet your new best friend? Apply now! Valiant is currently at the Napa County Shelter in Petaluma, CA.
