Hi Mike I worked a hard headed Mal before I got my current striped partner.

Hey Mike,
Maybe its a girl thing, I like the stripes too. Although I did have a mal and he was great.

- Tell us about yourself: I am in New York State. Got my first DS about 14 years ago (more or less as a rescue- lost her in Nov.). After years of GSD's, and a few dogs of other breeds (Rotti/Beauceron/Ger. Shorthaired Pointer/ Yorkie and my current Jack Russell) I now have another DS, 4mo female, no name yet, tho I have a few in mind.
Also have a horse-old quarter horse mare-32.

Re: only because they made me
Welcome Mike.
My husband was a total malinois man. Heck, my first working dog was a malinois too, and a good one at that. But we have both developed a preference for the clear thinking ability of the Dutch shepherd, vs the do first, think later mentality of the dumber yellow cousins.
(there...that should teach you not to boast the dumber cousins as superior on a brindle board)
