Malakai's Story

Meet Malakai! Malakai is around 3 years old and 53 pounds of pure love and goofiness. He has that fun, young-dog personality but in a fully potty trained, grown-up package. The best of both worlds.<br/><br/>He wants more than anything to be with his people. On walks, he'll look back to check on you like "you good?" and it's honestly the sweetest thing. He bonds hard and loves even harder. He's the kind of dog who will follow you from room to room just to be near you.<br/><br/>Medium energy, house trained, and a total snuggle bug once he's settled in for the night. He's ready for a full life with a family who will adore him as much as he'll adore them.<br/><br/>If you've been waiting for a loyal, goofy, heart-stealing best friend... Malakai is your guy.

Bark About It Rescue's Adoption Policy
We utilize a foster to adopt process, whereby dogs are placed with a prospective family following the acceptance of their application including a vet reference check and a home check. Following foster placement the rescue follows up with the family to ensure it is a good fit for the dog and family's respective wants and needs. If the foster period is successful, the adoption can be formalized with an adoption contract.
