Belgian Malinois | Is It Right For You?

I hope you guys enjoy! Today, we are addressing the topic of whether or not a Belgian Malinois, Dutch Shepherd, Lackenois, or dog of similar type, is a good choice for an individual or a family. The Malinois is a medium-to-large breed of dog, sometimes classified as a variety of the Belgian Shepherd dog rather than as a separate breed. The name "Malinois" is derived from Malines, the French name for the breed's Flemish city of origin, Mechelen. The Belgian Malinois breed is used as a working dog for tasks including detection of odors such as explosives, accelerants (for arson investigation), and narcotics; tracking humans for suspect apprehension in police work; and search and rescue missions. The U.S. Secret Service uses Belgian Malinois to guard the grounds of the White House.  I hope you guys enjoy! This channel is devoted to providing a window into the life of professional dog trainer, Stonnie Dennis. I talk about dog training, boarding, health, equipment, and all the things that go into owning and running a successful dog training and boarding kennel. At our kennel we place special emphasis on helping dogs reach their full potential through the use of physically and mentally demanding activities. Our primary goal is to help families raise happy, healthy, well socialized, canine companions. We especially love training Labrador Retrievers, so don't be surprised when you see Labs of every age, size, shape, and color!!!  Website: www.KentuckyCanine.com  Instagram:   / stonniedennis   #belgianmalinois #malinois #workingdog #stonnie
