Goose's Story

Goose is a highly intelligent, extremely obedient pure-bred Belgian Malinois seeking a very specific, experienced home where he can thrive as a one-person dog. Goose bonds intensely with his handler and would do best in a single-person household where he can form a strong, focused partnership.<br/><br/>Due to his high prey drive, Goose is not suitable for a home with children, cats, or other dogs. He needs a calm, structured environment with a confident handler who understands large-breed working dogs and is comfortable providing appropriate corrections, boundaries, and leadership.<br/><br/>Goose is exceptionally well trained and eager to work. He already knows:<br/><br/>1. Sit<br/>2. Lay down<br/>3. Place<br/>4. Drop it<br/>5. Heel<br/>6. Come here<br/><br/>He is highly responsive and thrives with structure, consistency, and purpose.<br/><br/>Goose has spondylosis, which means it is important that he maintains an active lifestyle—similar to a typical Belgian Malinois—but with mindful monitoring to avoid spinal flare-ups. Keeping him at a healthy, lean weight and providing appropriate exercise is essential to his long-term comfort and success.<br/><br/>Ideal Home:<br/><br/>One-person household<br/><br/>No children, cats, or other dogs<br/><br/>Belgian Malinois and/or working-dog experienced adopter<br/><br/>Confident handler comfortable correcting and guiding a large working breed<br/><br/>Commitment to structured exercise, training, and weight management<br/><br/>Goose is not a beginner dog, but for the right, knowledgeable person, he will be an incredibly loyal, driven, and rewarding companion.<br/><br/>If you are interested in adopting Goose, please fill out the adoption application here: https://forms.gle/ca7HdvCD7EEPFcJf9<br/><br/>If your application is approved then we will reach out to schedule an in-person or Facetime interview depending on your location.
