Welcome to del Rio malinois!

*PUPPY CAM IS NOW LIVE - Click to Enjoy*

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.

The C Litter Turns Six Months

The little monkeys from the C Litter will be six months old tomorrow. We took VP [short for VesPer] out to Petsmart but before we did, I caught her in a short video clip with a phone in her mouth. She’s very much the talkative pup!

Lone Picture, Lone Wolf

I was able to snap ONE picture of Miss Vesper as she galloped, ran, jumped, and pranced around the ring.  Puppy cuteness at 4 months goes a long way – we were given a G3 by the benevolent judge.

India, aka Fuzzy Wuzzy, goes to her forever home

India, Allee Sablee Calcutta del Rio, is now with her forever owners Judy and Geoff.  India, our Tervuren, was a personal favorite of ours due to her warm and loving spirit. She always had a kiss and clack for anyone that would come to the house. The first time Judy and Geoff came over, India...

Vesper Lynd Goes A-Herdin’

A few pics of Vesper undergoing her herding instinct test this past weekend.  Vesper, named after James Bond’s first girlfriend from Casino Royale, is a keg o’ dynamite.  She’s always on the move and is more Tasmanian Devil than Malinois.

February 21, 2009 - 5:19 pm Bobby - Yes, this is the only other boy in the litter. He's a big strapping red boy. He's more like India and Cowboy is like Vesper.
