Lavender's Story

Meet one year old Lavender! Her mama was saved as a pregnant stray Malinois from the Lancaster shelter the day before a litter of eight puppies were born. The wildflower litter was born May 26, 2025, and is a mix of Malinois and shepherd. We don't know who their dad is, but this litter is such a great mix!<br/><br/>Lavender is sweet and affectionate, playful and fun. She lives with a foster family that has teenagers, so we know she is good with older kids, but has not been tested with younger children yet.<br/><br/>If you're looking for a sweet affectionate new best friend let us know and we can arrange a meetup! She is in SoCal and is ready for forever!
