Introducing Google! This adorable Australian Shepherd/Belgian Malinois mix puppy was born around April 1, 2026. Google is currently participating in our Fresh Start prison training program, where they are learning early basics like house training and simple commands. These pups are from high-drive, intelligent working breeds and are full of personality! While they are incredibly smart and capable of deep bonds, they will need plenty of structure, training, and exercise to channel their energy positively. Google is not a couch potato and will thrive with an active owner who enjoys training and providing a smart dog with a job. If you're ready for the rewarding commitment of raising a working breed puppy, Google will undoubtedly give you their whole heart.
