Jessie - located in CA

Meet #MADloveJessie - Your Golden Girl with a Heart of Pure Sweetness Jessie is a gorgeous 1-year-old Belgian Malinois weighing about 55 lbs. Her coat is a stunning blend of gold, rust, and deep brown, paired with classic black ears and snout. But her true beauty is in her temperament-she is incredibly sweet , gentle, and just wants all the love you can give her . Personality & EnergyJessie is an energetic, active young Malinois who loves to move, play, and be involved in everything her humans are doing. In her foster home, she instantly bonded with a 1-year-old male Malinois-no hesitation, no issues. They play, nap, and eat side-by-side like lifelong friends.She also lives with two adult cats and two tiny foster kittens (just 1 lb each!). Jessie showed zero aggression or prey drive toward any of them. She's excited and curious, but gentle-nudging and giving kisses more than anything else. She learned "EASY" quickly, though yes, she'll try to chase a running cat… dogs will be dogs! Smart, Sensitive, & Eager to LearnJessie is very intelligent and responds well to her name. She thrives with a gentle but firm handler who can guide her with patience and consistency. When she gets confused, her go-to move is "dead dog"-all 55 lbs instantly become a 100-lb floppy Malinois! It's her way of saying, "I need help understanding."She already knows: Leave it (pretty solid!) Sit Down Wait And her motto is definitely: "Will work for food." She walks fairly well on leash and is working on recall. She has met multiple new dogs with no fear or aggression. Home Life & MannersJessie is a velcro girl-she loves following her foster parents everywhere and would be over the moon to sleep in bed with her person. She's currently crate-trained for nighttime and does well with a chew toy and a couple "QUIET" reminders. After one early potty accident, she has been fully reliable with going outside. Jessie Is Looking For…A committed adopter who understands the Malinois breed-someone firm but gentle, active, and ready to give her the guidance, activity, and affection she craves. She has tremendous potential and a truly loving heart. One thing she is not is a couch potato!Jessie wants to please, play, and love. If you're ready for a devoted companion with endless enthusiasm and sweetness, Jessie may be your perfect match. All MAD dogs come with a Fi Collar and six-months subscription.
