Zealand

Zealand is a 10-11 month old Belgian Malinois with pretty gold eyes that just match his pretty golden coat. His owner chose not to claim him from the Modesto pound even though he had been notified that his dog was there.

This charmer has quite a bit to say about himself. He'll talk and squeak if he isn't right by his people. He has great house manners, sleeps quietly in his crate at night, and has not had any accidents in the house. He loves to play with other social dogs, and readily jumps in the car to go for a ride. If he gets bored, he will find something to chew, as will most dogs his age. He is very connected to his people, and does not like being left alone, or he will escape a crate or jump a 6' fence.

Zealand is looking for a moderately active home, with someone home most of the time. The proper home should have a secure kennel to keep him contained for the times someone is not at home. He would do best with another dog to play with and keep him company. Unknown how he is with cats.

This is a Level 2 Dog

This is what MOST of his pictures came out like, he protested for the whole 10 minutes he was tied to a tree long enough to get pictures of him!

He came to us with a wound on his neck but it sure didn't affect his ability to protest!
