About Tazzi

Tazzi is a spirited Belgian Malinois puppy, just 10 weeks old and weighing 9 lbs. She embodies the traits of her breed—loyal, intelligent, and full of drive. Tazzi is no ordinary puppy; she thrives on activity and challenges, so she's not your typical laid-back companion. This working-line Malinois seeks a home that appreciates her exuberance and understands her needs. Tazzi requires a single-family home with no apartments, condos, or a fenced yard, and older kids aged 12 and up would be ideal for her energetic personality. Though she’s still quite young, Tazzi is eager to learn and has already picked up fetching and is mastering basic commands like sit and wait. Given her high energy and need for mental stimulation, she’s best suited for an experienced Malinois or working-breed home. If you're looking for a loyal partner to train and grow alongside, Tazzi might just be the one. What are you waiting for? Apply today!
