Red Belgian Shepherd / Malinois Nashville, TN

Red is a handsome, fawn and black Belgian Malinois. He is approximately 4-5 years old and weighs 60 pounds. He only has three teeth which are premolars on the bottom, right side. Because of his missing teeth, his tongue often hangs out the side of his mouth. We have experimented with various types of foods including canned food and dehydrated food mixes and determined that he does best with a small sized dry kibble. (Many dogs with teeth don't actually chew up dry kibble before swallowing it anyway.)
He loves playing ball and going for walks and would make an excellent running and hiking buddy. He already knew some basic obedience commands and has great leash manners. He is very sweet and affectionate and is a "velcro dog" and prefers to stay very close to his person.
Red has a wonderful personality...his energy level is calm most of the time but his drive increases during times of activity and play.
He does well with older kids and other dog and seems to be cat-neutral.
MTGSR pulled him from Rutherford County PAWS in Murfreesboro, TN.
