Ostend is an 8-week-old Belgian Shepherd/Malinois mix, embodying sweetness and friendliness. He was rescued alongside his siblings from a situation where they weren't properly cared for. Despite his playful energy, he's not hyper and enjoys his cuddles, making him an ideal companion. This pup has been raised with the intention of becoming a family pet rather than a working dog. His parents exhibit low prey drive and are known for their trainability. With early bonding and training, Ostend could thrive in roles like search and rescue or even as a service dog. Experienced adopters are preferred, and applicants with fenced yards will be looked upon favorably. Ostend will be ready for his forever home on August 31st. The adoption fee includes vaccinations, deworming, microchipping, and the mandatory spay/neuter. If you’re looking for a smart and affectionate pup, he's ready to become part of your family.
