About Flaco

Flaco is a handsome, approximately 2-year-old Belgian Malinois mix who is ready for his forever home once again. Life has thrown some challenges his way, but he remains hopeful for a happy ending. Flaco was found wandering the streets of Yuma with his brother, and after being rescued by Central Arizona Animal Rescue, he thought he had found his forever family.

He thrives on companionship, whether it’s going for a walk, relaxing at home, or just enjoying your company. He also gets along great with other dogs and would be a fantastic buddy if you already have a canine companion. While he hasn’t been tested with cats yet, his kind spirit suggests he might adapt well with supervision. Flaco is house-trained and has already mastered some commands. Like many young dogs, continued training will help him flourish even more. This intelligent breed is known for its loyalty and eagerness to learn. Flaco would suit an active family that includes him in daily adventures while continuing to help him grow. Flaco is not just looking for a temporary home; he wants a family that understands the long-term commitment of dog ownership.
