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.

November 4, 2008 - 8:04 am Helen Gruenhut - The new blog is just so exciting. Don't you know when people want males, you get girls and vice versa? A good friend of mine raises Ch Dobermans with titles at both ends. She has the same desire for sex of her pups.It is always changing. Regardless, I am excited about this litter; and the way you raise the pups. Wishing that every thing will go well with this litter and their mom. God bless, Helen Gruenhut

Mr. Jackson – From the “B” Litter

Well, in this video, we find Mr. Jackson of the B litter. He was Black Boy and was deemed the “prettiest” of them all. He’s turned out very nicely and has that typical Belgian enthusiasm and penchant for body slamming!
