Mac is a switched-on young lad with a big heart and an even bigger brain. At just 8 months old, he’s already shown us how much he loves to learn. He’s both food and toy motivated, eager to please his people, and thrives on positive training.

Mac is a social butterfly – friendly with everyone he meets and absolutely adores the company of other dogs. He could potentially live with another well-matched canine companion to share adventures with.

Sadly, through no fault of his own, Mac has grown up in a kennel environment as a case animal and hasn’t had the chance to experience home life until now. This means everyday things in a typical home can be a little overwhelming for him at first. He’ll need patient, understanding caregivers who can gently guide him through this transition.

What Mac Needs:

  • A job to do – Mac is not a couch companion; he’s a bright, driven dog who will thrive with purpose. Whether that’s scent work, obedience, mantrailing, or other training outlets, he needs his brain kept busy just as much as his body.
  • Experienced hands – He’ll be best suited to someone with a genuine interest in Malinois-types (or similar working breeds) who understands their need for structure, stimulation, and ongoing training.
  • An active, outdoorsy lifestyle where he can burn off energy and put his natural abilities to use.
  • A calm, rural or working-style environment where he can grow in confidence without too many overwhelming distractions.
  • People who are committed, consistent, and excited about helping him reach his full potential.

Mac already knows the basics, so he’s ready to build on his foundations with someone who shares his enthusiasm for training and behaviour. In the right home, this boy is going to shine – he’s loyal, clever, and full of love to give.

If you’re looking for a young Mali cross who needs and deserves a job – and you’ve got the passion and drive to bring out the best in him – Mac could be your perfect match.
