Belgian Malinois Appearance of the working type

In this video we are showing you the different types of appearance (color and structure)

[@MrHighroller420]

glad I got one he is awesome just 9 weeks great dog

[@bootsraw1120]

these dogs are truly OUTRAGEOUS/GORGEOUS/SMART & MOST OF ALL LOYAL

[@wanneske1969]

they also come in blue fawn and solid blue !

[@rexsovelllejes9383]

They also come in rainbow color

[@kingj7606]

No they dont

[@OrkunOrman]

super

[@IronSightK9s]

so you would turn away a black or "grey" mal because the color is not desirable? This is AKC show talk, not working dog talk. There are MANY black and light fawn working dogs. Color has zero to do with work, and vice versa.

[@twohandedgrip4520]

At 2:21, Mr. Balabanov states, "Appearance is secondary to the Working Ability and Health!" I don't think a working dog trainer/breeder of this caliber judges anything on appearance alone.

[@SuperSweetheart456]

Thank you for posting, I enjoyed this video. The competition part was incredible. If that's your dog, great job. Mals are incredible dogs. I love our Mal and it is my opinion that these are the sweetest, best temperament, unstoppable work ethic, gorgeous, most protective, smartest, most agile, silliest dogs on the planet. They are awesome!

[@fraroc]

Some stupid bitch tried to convince me that Belgian Malinos are not pets. I tried to say that any well trained dog can be a family dog, but she ended up blocking me. Nice to see that you're proving her wrong. My next door neighbor used to own a male Malinois named Max years ago in the early 1990s. He said that he was one of the most hyperactive dogs he ever owned, but also one of the most loyal and trusting. Also, when he got the Malinois, he also owned a female German Shepherd named Skylar and both dogs fell in love with each other and were pretty much inseparable! Max wouldn't leave her alone.

I love belgians malinois and dobermans!

[@MasterOfAllBulldogs]

I love these dogs

[@beangelica2540]

MasterOfAllBulldogs me too

[@pazrexthegermanshepherd4745]

At 1:05 that malinois is a beauty

[@javigtiv]

the best DOG ever. YURI BOYCA IN DOG. the most complete dog in every way

[@LongRangeDesertGroupX]

I think a lot of you are missing the point of this video, Ivan is not saying that color defines a dog. Clearly he states that Appearance is behind working and health. I can understand the point of wanting a range of colors that are acceptable. I used to like the typical tan coloring with black face but I really like the darker mal's now. But of course Work and Health come first in any aspect.

[@59moras]

Greetings Ivan . Are you still selling some of you puppies?.

[@archivaldohigs4154]

that trance music got me good vibes :) good video

[@rael6974]

I love these dogs

[@MarescaK9]

Excellent job, as always !! Congratulations !!

[@search895]

many dog breeds should be "accepted" as color variable in "standards" because they simply are. I dont understand why they separated the white german sheperd from the oficial german sheperd. If you llok at the border collies, they can be of any color (and I really mean ANY color), hair lenght and many ear position. Do british shepperd care? No, as long as the dog is the most intelligent and hard working breed in the world.

[@castiel241]

If you breed for looks you will get a weak dog. Breed for intelligence and character and you'll get a good dog. Drives are a completely useless man made saying. It is stupid to think of a dog as a mindless creature that should bite and allow the enemy to batter them while they hold on.

[@ForbiddenCatBelly]

Typically, those bites would cause enough shock to incapacitate a target immediately (broken bones, excessive blood loss, general pain). Why do you think drives are illegitimate? They merely describe behavioral tendencies.

[@AdamTyler312]

"Drives are a completely useless man made saying??" you have no clue what your talking about. yes they have drives called defense and prey, and you can say fight drive. If you know anything about working lines you would have to know this..

[@castiel241]

Adam Tyler Ok buddy whatever you say

[@castiel241]

David Romero Not as often as you would think

[@ancoloco]

You must know what you are getting into before having one of these dogs, they are not for just everyone.

[@evando11]

ancoloco You're totally right. They are not for begginers.

[@lucabrasi3253]

My first dog is actually a malinios working dog. But we dont do bite work. We do only obedience and i am 18 years old

[@fannestmafioso8818]

@@lucabrasi3253 almost the same im 19 and i live by my self with 2 mals

[@TENNESSEETRACKHAWK]

wow great video. thanx

[@pandapants32]

everyone keeps saying the dogs are not beginner dogs, but I'm planning on getting one as my first dog. it all depends on if you know what you're getting in to

[@pandapants32]

+Paz Hernandez my ultimate dream is to be a professional dog trainer. specializing in protection, and advanced trainings. still love the dog so much, I'm going to look at a local breeder who has mals and Dutch shepherd pretty soon to get some one on one before I commit

[@pandapants32]

+Paz Hernandez do you have a website or facebook? it's hard to find well bred German Shepard's that are also good in conformation

[@pandapants32]

+Paz Hernandez I'll look into it

[@apexxscout8098]

Experience is simply knowing what this young pup is gonna do and NOT over react. Since I've have three the first one taught me what to expect at each growth stage. The boy go thru a nipppy-playful stage so I'm CERTAIN NOT to correct him but to simply gently hold him by both sides of his leather collar with eye contact while gently saying 'no.' Just like a child going thru the tantrum stage but the pup is NOT challenging but playing and so pushing. We want this trait so do not want to suppress. Hope this helps. Very, very very time consuming labor of respect and love. Corny, I know but that really expresses what's going on.

[@lucabrasi3253]

My first dog was a malinios too and i am 18 years old

[@henryrights8428]

I prefer malinois than German Shepherd. They are super agile and nimble and always ready to work.

[@poopcheto771]

Nah

[@urmumgeh4200]

+Poop Cheto yeah? The GSD is amazing and a bad ass. But mals live to work. Their breed also is destroyed (yet) due to poor breeding. Respect to both dogs because I own both but my mal is way more dedicated to work.

[@tianadrake2891]

+Spruskinzie mooskenzie offsets tdsssfdds scgtu yfvydzatu

[@pazrexthegermanshepherd4745]

Working line gsds are equal to or better than the Mal in many ways(if we are speaking of versatility). They are capable of doing many more types of work. Agility wise, both would be around the same but it would depend on the dog. Typically a Mal would be faster because of its slimmer body where the Gsd would be stronger.

[@eyebleached]

That has nothing to do with the video. It's about Malinois COLORS not "GSD vs Mal" smh.

[@wulf3n773]

Man they all look ready to chase and take someone down

[@gabeb5412]

Nice video Ivan. Not sure if you remember Marco and I, but for a second I thought you had a picture of my boy. He was a look alike of my boy, but an excellent example none the less. CHEERS!

[@theorganicgarden7346]

These are great dogs. I mountain bike in remote areas. My Mal goes with me. She is not afraid to take the point position. That is perfect. All she would need to do is warn me. She is the most aware dog I have ever seen. Never be heavy handed training these dogs. If they do wrong distract them don't punish harshly. Bond with them and they will try and do what you want.

[@avasvanderwhatever7799]

I have one of these dogs and they are good with little kids

[@rnabo031]

why is it not desireable for them to have white markings extended up to neck? Is it about some genetic illnes or just because it is not approved by kennel club?

[@T.Q.]

No illnesses. Just looks/standards set by the Kennel Club. Pretty lame if you ask me.

[@rnabo031]

thanx, thats what I thought. My dog has white markings up to neck and he seems perfectly fine. Good thing I don't care about their standards

[@MrEl7decopas]

rnabo031 good opinión my friend stupid standards like that ruined the german shepard.

[@clowsf13]

rnabo031 me too

[@pazrexthegermanshepherd4745]

Because the traits weren't originally there before and they want to keep the breed as 'original' as possible.

[@privacyfirst2859]

From the town of Mechelen (Malines). Belgium.

[@jimystpats4483]

Love the obedience

[@jerrymyers1798]

My black Belgian Malinois is undesirable.....oh no.

Хубави кучета,и Витоша е хубава 👌

I love this dog 🤲🤲

[@jimihendrixx11]

I need to get a full black one...can't wait

[@croatoankennels3504]

2:18 beautiful dog

[@rajashekarashekara9131]

Excellent dog training . Impressed a lot. I am interested in taking your online dog training course. Please give the details

[@deavyhick6803]

What color is the 3rd one considered?

[@ismailmuhammad3522]

best dog hands down

[@gerryk9training]

its what's between the ears , not the colour , if you start to breed solely for confirmation you can lose the strong nerve and excellent drives that make a Malinois what it is, realizing that you need a balance between confirmation and mental strength and using only the best dogs for breeding, there are plenty of poor dogs with working titles.

[@antiocososa4453]

awsome video

[@elizabethwilliams227]

what sport was being shown near the end? where the guy would run and the dog suddenly stop?

[@buzzsparker]

Elizabeth Williams That's Schutzhund. A sport this breed excels greatly in.

[@jebclarianes5419]

How about the gray ones?

[@FLV8Jeeper]

Great video Ivan. I Love the last dog that is in the grass by the St. Pete Pier. Is that considered Mahogany color? Thats a beautiful dog. Several of the dogs in this video are very good looking dogs. I Love Black and Red, Black and Mahogany.

[@cabron1998]

good video llllllll

[@kurtkomida8601]

I'm a dog. see my pic.

[@NagatoKamiPain]

any idea how to pick puppy that will be color as one at 1:05 that mal is beautiful

[@endereco]

Only top looking dogs.

[@ritikbhagat5714]

these dogs don't have the sense to betray there owners i love these species

[@mjevans7539]

1:00 is the best

[@rogergriffin262]

I don't know I kinda like the first one.

[@mpugliano]

We purchased our dog here. We are very pleased we love our puppy. Its half alligator!

[@mpugliano]

Update: Our Puppy is almost 50 pounds and is almost entirely an alligator. She is the most incredible dog we have ever had and is maturing nicely.

[@apexxscout8098]

Four types of Belgians. You guy gotta see the wire one. So funny but same dog as ours.

[@silvervoltage5477]

+apexx scout Yeah, malinois, turveren, laekenois, and groenendael

[@silvervoltage5477]

***** ? The Schipperke isn't one of the four belgians?

[@silvervoltage5477]

***** Clearly english isn't your first language because that sentence made very little sense. Nor can you understand the fact I was AGREEING with you earlier. If you make any more stupid claims about me I'm muting you. It's a waste of breath for both of us. Stop.

[@gabrielpereiralino7935]

i love pastor belga de malinois

[@RomanoRomaker]

2:57 and 3:25 is excellent !

[@scopedoc14]

have one great dogs

[@bababobo9016]

Great dog. I still prefer the classic German shepherd over it tho. This dog seems to have fun biting, as the German shepherd only has one thing on its mind. WORK

[@LongRangeDesertGroupX]

Clearly you've never worked with Malinois's before if you don't think they work. Its hard to find a solid good working GSD these days, thats why Police and Military are getting more and more Mal's and not as many GSD's.

[@brolintruter4945]

+Infidel SF they are getting more and more mal's becuase they're better k9's then GS in every way!!

[@Kravmagainternational]

great video!
