del Rio kennels – home to belgian malinois bio picture

Welcome to del Rio malinois!

The Belgian Malinois is a highly athletic, intelligent and active breed. These are traits that first drew us into the Belgian Malinois.  Once you have brought one into your life, you discover how much more there is to fall in love with.  The Malinois can bring endless joy and at times, heartache. But throughout the journey with this wonderful breed, you will realize your life is so much more enriched than it would have been without a "Maligator" by your side.

Bobby and Angela live in Frederick County near Winchester, Virginia which is located in the beautiful Shenandoah Valley of northern Virginia, about an hour west of Washington, DC.

Their breeding program takes into consideration temperment and character, first and foremost, as well as the physical health of the parents.  The utmost concern is spent on development of the litter through the first few weeks of their lives, and training and upbringing of the Malinois once accepted into their loving homes. We stand by our puppies, not just as breeders, but as champions of the breed and friends of their new owners.

This blog will present you with the images, stories, and videos of our Malinois. At times, we will carry a story and a picture from our extended Malinois family. Feel free to contact us or comment on our site.

What the heck: What do you do?

Lunch time at the office…just finished a nice roast beef sandwich on rye, with *lechuga* and *cebollas* and a nice lathering of spicy brown mustard washed down with my second Diet Coke of the day. I’ve abandoned my Morning Rant/Rave subject moniker….it didn’t apply any longer because all sorts of blather spills from these fingers...

What the heck: Navigating the minefields of Petersburg, VA

I’ve been drinking a very good cup of Fincas de Chiapas provided to me by a fellow Belg-L’er who had taken pity on my coffee binges…..Thank you Becky! Can you believe she sent it from OREGON to VIRGINIA??? And the Pony Express rider only asked for water for his horse……… Walking a dog in my...
