About Zander

Meet Zander, a 4.5-year-old Belgian Malinois mix looking for a serene forever home. Weighing in at 85 pounds, Zander is a sensitive soul who thrives in a calm environment. He can feel overwhelmed at times, so a quiet space where he can adjust at his own pace is essential. When he feels secure, he transforms into a loyal companion and protector. Zander is well-trained and excels in obedience commands, making him a dream for an experienced owner. He gets along well with other dogs, favoring an easygoing female companion. However, he does not do well with small animals or children. If you have a peaceful home and the patience to develop a strong bond, Zander is ready to be your devoted friend. He is neutered, fully vaccinated, heartworm negative, and microchipped. This could be the start of something paw-some.
