del Rio kennels – home to belgian malinois bio picture

Welcome to del Rio kennels!

The Belgian Malinois is a highly athletic, intelligient 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 through out the journey with this wonderful breed, you will realize your life is much more enriched than it would have been without a "Maligator" by your side.

Bobby and Angela live in Petersburg, Virginia which is located just south of Richmond, the state capitol of Virginia. Their breeding program takes into consideration the ultimate health of the parents, the development of the litter through the first few weeks of their lives, and the 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.

Pics of Thai and her friend Jackie….

WTH: Paying respects to those who have gone before me….

I never enlisted in the military.  Just wasn’t something that I wanted to do.  But…my dad was in the Army, I had a brother retire from the Navy after 20 years, and my other two brothers also were in the military. I have three cousins, three uncles, one aunt, and my grandpa all served.  So,...

What the heck? I’m so done with….

I’ve got a nice cup o’ java going, had some yoghurt and then realized I was sort of peeved….
I’m so done with having to consider if I should drive to a dog event to shoot some fun pictures because my capital investment return on a tank of gas would be so low that I should...

Jackson Meets Thai

Mr. Jackson’s daddy came up from Rhode Island during the ABMC National Specialty and was able to hang out for few hours.
Jackson, at first overwhelmed by all of the Malinois in one place, soon came out of his shell and became the life of the party. At least my party. He was...
