What a lovely dog you have Cameron. It I quite possible that there is a Malinois parent, but I think I see something else there too - something with a softer expression, possibly a Labrador. If so, this could be a good cross. Some Malinois are very high drive, and a little gundog breeding should make them a lot more relaxed to live with. This is my best guess, but I will be interested to see what other Breedia members think.
