The Belgian Malinois are the military dog breed of choice today. My friend found an abandon one and he was a wonderful companion to him until the day my friend died. His dog gave him great comfort in his illness. Conan is the most handsome one I can remember seeing and obviously superbly trained. I would love to meet her.
