About the Belgian Malinois
The Belgian Malinois (MAL-in-wah) is one of four Belgian herding breeds, all named for the Belgian towns where they were developed. The Malinois takes its name from the city of Malines. While originally bred as a herding dog, the Malinois was quickly recognized for its intelligence, drive, and trainability, and it transitioned into police, military, and protection work early in the 20th century.
