Duchess is a 2-year-old Belgian Malinois with a mix of athleticism and affection that’s hard to beat. She’s got that classic Malinois stamina for adventures—always up for hikes, runs, and epic games of fetch or frisbee—but knows how to settle and become a champion cuddler when it’s time to relax. Duchess is dog friendly and absolutely wants a playful canine companion by her side, but she won’t be a fit for homes with cats or young children. With a confident handler on the leash, she’s a polite walker and brings her best on a jog. Indoors, expect her to try to claim your couch or even your bed. She’s curious but respectful with other animals, and while shy around strangers at first, she quickly becomes loyal and wants nothing more than to stay close once she trusts you. Duchess thrives with a patient owner familiar with intelligent, loyal breeds who can give her the time and training to build confidence. She’s looking for a home ready to let her blossom into the queen she is. Located in Houston, TX and waiting for her new family. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
