Manuela adoptieren

Manuela is a beautiful Belgian Malinois with boundless energy and potential. She was abandoned by her previous owner and arrived with some control and reactivity issues, typical of the breed when not properly cared for, as they are working dogs and very demanding. Currently, our behavior team is working with her, as she can also have negative reactions with other dogs upon initial contact. Even so, she has made great progress and is already able to interact and play with certain dogs in a controlled manner. New socializations should always be done with caution and knowledge, both with other dogs and during walks. We are also working with Manuela on vehicle habituation, as she reacts to fast movements and moving objects, also very common in this breed. This is an area where she is improving and requires consistent effort and experience. Manuela is an ideal dog for operational work: she has excellent qualities for disciplines such as police or dog sports. She is very well-suited for work, with a great capacity for learning and high motivation. She simply needs continued obedience training, which is entirely manageable and poses no problem for an experienced handler. We are looking for a responsible adopter for her, someone knowledgeable about the breed and willing to continue working with her, someone who can offer her stability, exercise, and proper guidance. She needs a job, even if it's not professional—obedience training, detection work, etc.—but her bright mind needs plenty of work and stability to be happy. Manuela has a bright future ahead of her. For now, she cannot share her home with other dogs. Her shoulder height is approximately 60cm.
