del Rio kennels – home to belgian malinois bio picture

Welcome to del Rio kennels!

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 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.

Update:  Congratulations to Tom H. of Richmond, VA, on his purchase of Bebe as his next canine companion!  Tom is an avid cyclist/athlete, and looks forward to training Bebe in agility, as well as hanging out on the futon with her.  Tom has always had GSD’s and has decided to graduate to the beautiful Malinois after researching and meeting several of them.  We know Bebe will be in good hands with him.

Miss Allee Sablee Ballet Blanc del Rio [Bebe] is available to a wonderful and caring home.  Bebe is a VERY active girl suited to agility or obedience, with excellent play drive and moderate food motivation.  She has no issues, is housebroken [COMPLETELY - she has had zero accidents since being here] ;-) and as an added bonus, is excellent with small children.  She is sweet and affectionate without being overly clingy, crates up on request and will entertain herself with toys.  Her sale price of $500 will be donated to ABMC rescue www.malinoisrescue.org  Bebe has been spayed as of 12/09/2008.

She was born March 06, 2007 from our Tami X Socks litter [B Litter].
