Ripley

Meet Ripley, a 2-year-old Belgian Malinois who perfectly embodies the beauty and "bright-eyed" intensity of his breed. At 50lbs, he is a sleek, agile athlete who is as smart as they come, making him a dream partner for someone who loves the process of training and bonding with a capable working dog. While Ripley is an absolute socialite who adores people of all kinds, he is a "pro-level" companion who thrives with clear communication. He has been working diligently with a professional trainer going on pack walks and learning to master his focus while on leash, learning to look to his person for direction when the world gets a little too exciting.  He isn't just looking for a home; he’s looking for a teammate—someone who understands the Malinois mindset and wants to continue nurturing his impressive potential. If you’re an active, engaged leader looking for a loyal shadow and a brilliant student, Ripley is ready to show you just how rewarding the right partnership can be.
