Zeus is a Belgian Malinois, an extremely intelligent working breed. They are commonly used as service dogs, K9 dogs or used on farms for specific jobs. These dogs need LOTS of exercise daily and need to be mentally stimulated or have a job to do while not around their owner, otherwise they can be destructive if these needs are not met. Zeus *loves* playing with toys: Chasing balls, flipping frisbees, he is always up for it all.
Zeus was recently introduced to our Dogs Playing for Life playgroup, and we think he may do well with another dog in the household provided that the owner’s dog takes correction well and isn’t a high energy dog, wanting to play with Zeus all the time. We do not think he would do well with cats. A meet and greet will be required if you have dogs in the household.
Zeus is *very* sweet and attentive to his people. When he is happy and comfortable he acts like a young pup and loves to give and receive affection. Zeus would not do well in an apartment and needs a secure yard. He’ll need some training- which he’s up for- loads of play and exercise- any time you’re ready- and a good amount of affection and scritches. If you think you’re ready for that assignment, and don’t mind everyone taking more pictures of your stunning dog than you- Zeus might be your guy.
