The difference between a German Shepherd and a Belgian Malinois might be best explained by how they handle a problem. The German Shepherd studies the situation, considers his options, and decides what needs to be done. The Belgian Malinois is already halfway across a flooded neighborhood, swimming toward something... show more

This is Ruger, my 2 y/o Belgian Malinois-GSD, 60/40% mix. He’s all of this!

Ruger got the best of both worlds! The German Shepherd brings the brains and the Malinois brings the chaos. Judging by those ears and that face, I suspect he gets away with just about anything!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Fir missile

So.... German Shepherds are Noncommissioned Officers. Malinois are Warrant Officers. . . . And Rat Terriers are Officers?

And Rat Terriers are the officers who give everybody orders, ignore the chain of command, and somehow end up running the entire operation!

Interesting that German police prefer German Shephards because they think and assess. That's why they perform so well in Schutzhund, compared to every other breed. U.S. police prefer Belgian Malinois who are agile and fearless.

Beautiful breed

@RickD_GK 🤣

That's also the difference between the men I know and women. The men charge in and figure it out without much of a plan and it gets done right. I admire that.

Malinois are the Olympic athletes of the dog world!

@_rockytop_biker Malinois has too much energy for me. If I were in my 20’s to 40’s again I would love to have one.

And the energy it requires to be the human of a Belgian Malinois! Yikes!

YEP!

You know exactly what I'm talking about! One has a strategy, the other has already jumped in the water. Both somehow get the job done!

My boys:

Des chiens à ne pas mettre dans toutes les mains, mais ils sont supers

Absolutely! German Shepherds and Malinois aren't for everyone, but in the right hands, they're extraordinary dogs. Their intelligence and loyalty are something special.

@1109Patricia Malinois sounds like me…🤪😂
