    Anyone want a Malinois?

    This was posted in the rescue sectoin of another forum.

    I think in the right home they would work.

    Male and Female Malinois. Pet Quality only. These pups will not work and need some one on one attention. They were 8-9 weeks old before they even saw a human. I picked them up from North Carolina, thought I had the time to put into them, but unfortunately, I dont. I hate seeing them sit in the kennel and would prefer they go to a home where they can be couch potatoes. They have been around children and other dogs. Paid $600.00 per pup, but its my loss. I would rather see them go to homes than sit in a kennel while I tried to sell them and get my money back, so I am placing them for $50.00 each.

    The post doesn't make sense to me...I don't understand how she says she doesn't have the time to put into them, but thinks they should end up as couch potatoes? Doesn't seem to take a lot of work to turn a dog into that. They're beautiful dogs, but the post confuses me. :/

    Maybe they mean they'd rather the dogs be couch potatoes than sit in kennels all day. Because it does say "I hate seeing them sit in the kennel".
    I dunno. But they are beautiful dogs.
    Our goal in life should be - to be as good a person as our dog thinks we are.

    Thank you for the siggy, Michelle!

    It sounds like they're breeder-bought. I would encourage the owner of these dogs to check the contract and check whether or not s/he must return the dogs to the breeder.

    Also, by "won't work", what venue is s/he talking about? I also wouldn't use Craigslist. Breed rescue would by my second suggestion.

    This does sound a little off. I wonder if they were a breeding pair that
    didn't work out.
