Mica - June 2025

Details:
  • Litter of 8 Belgian Malinois puppies born June 9, 2025
  • All pups were vet checked and up to date on vaccinations and deworming before going home. 
  • We had 5 males and 3 females available from a carefully planned pairing of Rocky and Mica. This litter combined high drive, balanced temperaments, and strong social skills. These pups are expected to excel at sport, various working rolls (including active service work or personal protection), and very active companion homes.

Early Development:
  • These puppies were raised in our home and exposed to a variety of people, a house cat and other dogs. During the critical first two weeks, they underwent Early Neurological Stimulation (ENS) as outlined in the U.S. military's Super Dog Program, designed to enhance stress tolerance and neurological development in future working dogs. At the same time, they were introduced to Early Scent Introduction (ESI), exposing them to a variety of novel smells to stimulate their developing olfactory systems and build early scent curiosity - an excellent foundation for detection or scent-driven work. 
  • ​Both the intentional pairing of the parents and the structured, daily exposures these puppies received were designed to build bulletproof nerves in dogs that are both highly sociable and highly trainable. With these two key traits in place, these pups were prepared for anything that demands focus, drive, and adaptability - no matter the environment.
  • Our hope is that each one goes on to fulfill a meaningful working role - whether as a police K9, sport prospect, PTSD service dog for veterans, or a personal protection companion. 

Sire:
  • Rocky BRN 51310 (Arco Salem x Dackx Perle de Tourbiere)
  • ​Rocky holds a PH1 with a score of 411 and is also a winner of the Hard Dog Competition for police and sport k9s.
  • He's an 85 pound male with a large, powerful build, strong drive and confidence.

Dam:
  • Mica BRN 47237 
  • ​Mica is the daughter of Arco Patterson (SWAT dog working in CA) and Chyna BRN 27553 (a proven producer of police and sport dogs).
  • ​Mica is a well balanced female who excels at obedience, has high drive when asked for but an excellent off-switch inside the home. She has an excellent work ethic and could go in any direction. She was in training for psychiatric service work before taking a break to raise her puppies. She lives in the home with other dogs and children.
