We're located in the high desert area of northern Arizona (right on the border with southern Utah). Our dogs are introduced to a variety of people and situations at a young age, ensuring that they are well-socialized. As well, Darlene is a professional dog trainer and has obtained her Training Without Conflict Certification through 2-time world lGP champion (Schutzhund) and one of the world's top dog trainers, Ivan Balabanov. Darlene also trains protection dogs, obedience, and does Search and Rescue, looking for lost individuals. She has the only certified Search and Rescue K9 (and cadaver dog), Seika, in Kane County (Kanab, Utah) as of August 2021.
We are committed to breeding the best possible Belgian Malinois. Our number one goal is to produce dogs with excellent temperaments. You can have the most beautiful dog, but if the temperament doesn't match, why bother? That doesn't mean that looks don't matter. We breed dogs who not only live up to the breed standard, but exceed it. We want dogs who are confident, with an on and off "button" and have controlled energy. They're calm when they need to be, but bring it on when needed. We breed dogs that actually work.
All of our dogs are health-tested, eyes, hips and elbows. When it comes to our puppies, we will match them based on your lifestyle. We want your Malinois to be a life partner for you, but will always take back any of our dogs.
