About Malouk

Meet Malouk, a 12-year-old German Shepherd with an 85 lb gentle soul and a loving heart. After moving to the rescue following the loss of his owner, Malouk is ready for a new home where he can be cherished. This sweet senior is blind but doesn’t let that hold him back. He finds joy in the simple pleasures: walks, naps, and lots of treats! His playful side comes out occasionally, reminding everyone that he has plenty of love to give. Malouk thrives in a calm home where he feels safe. He can be an only pet or live harmoniously with respectful dogs and even cats who understand his needs. He’s friendly and gentle with people, particularly enjoying the company of children. While he can experience some anxiety due to his blindness, Malouk benefits from calming medication and a routine that includes crate time, where he feels most at ease. He is potty trained but will need further leash training as he tends to pull when excited or unsure. This resilient companion is looking for a peaceful home where he can receive the love and care he deserves. In return, you'll gain a steady friend who offers simple but priceless moments of companionship. Ready to meet Malouk? Click apply to start the adoption process.
