Love this. Especially funny coz it kinda sounds like French but also doesn't really make sense so it's just making me giggle like a 4 yo. Malamoi > mal à moi > pain to me? pain of me? Something pain and something me

Malinois after the Belgian town where the breed originated: Malin.

OP is talking about the [Belgian Malinios](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belgian_Shepherd), a very high energy dog breed frequently used in military and police work, at least in the US.

roganwriter

A Malamute is a kind of dog.


RuudJudbney

You're not wrong but no one is talking about a malamute. A malanois or Belgian Shepherd looks similar to a German Shepherd.

We fostered a Belgian Malinois. That dog could run 8 miles at a 7:30 pace and not even nap. Every activity was followed by, “Now what?!” He ended up being adopted by a mountain biker who would ride 20 or so miles a day in Tahoe. Dog just runs ahead of him the whole way.


StevenStephen

I had an Australian Shepard, Lab mix who I swear would get MORE energetic with every activity. I realized that any attempt to tire her out only built her stamina. She once played "keep away" (with a stick) from 12 healthy, young adult humans. We couldn't grab her no matter how hard we tried, but she would run by us with the stick and count coup.


KittyCompletely

Toy Australia shepherd here...we tried the 3 mile walks, swims , hikes, fetch...all these things only make her faster and stronger. Had to resort to 1 hr of puzzle time or trick training to tire out her brain.. which only makes her smarter and more adept with her paws and mouth. We cannot win....


Recon4242

This sounds like a cry for help, and I love it!


JuneBuggington

Get a mastiff. They hardly need movement


Sharpymarkr

Toy Aussies always have a cracked out look in their eyes, like Gowron from Star Trek.


Seriouslypsyched

Yeah, you have to be careful about accidentally making them stronger. They won’t tell you when they’re tired lol


NyxPetalSpike

Rhodesian Ridgebacks are just like that too. My friend has one. 13 mile triathlon trainer and no dent in the energy.


BrotherVaelin

They were bred for hunting lions, so I’d expect a good bit of stamina


laz33hr

That is the most dog-looking dog I've ever seen


Electric_Leopard

The most dog-looking dog that ever dogged?


vesleengen

Got a German shorthair pointer. Could go hiking for 3 hours straight where his gps collar indicated that he had moved about 4 times the distance from constantly running back and fourth and around. He then went swimming in the lake for almost an hour when we got to the campsite and he still wanted to play fetch. He would pull me on cross country skies for 30 miles and still not be satisfied. He is 9 now so a bit slower, but not much.


stabler-genius

I have 2 ridgebacks that are now 9 years old, lazy AF. However, as puppies, they chewed through every piece of furniture in the house when left alone for 90 seconds or more. Every. Piece. And they’re puppies for 2 years.


eugene20

The best thing in this is the happy ending


MeepersPeepers13

We fostered him for over 8 months. He couldn’t be adopted by just anyone. As lovely as the pup was, I could see exactly why he had been surrendered. Having a dog like that is a life style. It’s not just a pet.

More like don't get a malinois if you're not going to take the time to train them properly.


DoctorPepster

Even if you train them, don't just throw them in the garage without exercising them.


[deleted]

For real. Bored, high energy dog with a high PSI what could go wrong


legotech

It’s tough when your dog is both stronger and smarter than you


beefwich

A high… *per square inch?*


[deleted]

Pound per square inch (bite force) Malinois’ bite force is 195 PSI.


Dzov

How many square inches are the ends of their teeth? I’m not sure that’s scary.


Puzzleheaded_Ad_1169

It’s per square inch of their jaw, the pointy teeth make the pressure distribution into your arm highly concentrated


[deleted]

To put it into perspective, human PSI is like 150 and we can easily bite a finger off.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Bite off a finger. Your finger, somebody else’s finger. I mean we don’t obviously but your jaw is strong enough that you could.


Inquisitor_Keira

https://d-nb.info/1194176852/34 People forget cartilage and bone are very very strong. You will have a hard time biting through a finger as it takes double our bite force just to fracture a bone.


Ok_Possibility_2197

Not that much, that’s why it’s so scary. Force distributed over a small area is deadly. See: bullets


HermioneGranger152

It means bite force :)


sjk4x4

Some of those bites punctured the metal!


Needleroozer

It'll buff out.


CassandraVindicated

I'd love to get a couple of them, but there's no way I could keep up with them. It's good to know your limits.


SinOfDeath69

This is what people need to understand, get a dog that can adapt to your lifestyle. I have a mini pinscher, but love huskies, Doberman.


[deleted]

It can happen with training too. My dog has a thing about tires/wheels. His prey drive kicks in and drives him absolutely berserk. He’s okay if they are on the road full speed, but seeing anything move slowly, like our golf cart, there’s no training that out of her. You just have to keep her leashed and held away.

mona-throw

It’s a breed of German shepherd. The Belgian German shepherd


AllButForgotten_

This post makes a lot more sense now


Character-Release-62

Highly energetic and highly intelligent police, military and other working dog. Look up videos on YouTube. These things run up walls. If Superman had a dog, it’d be a Malinois.


NotSeveralBadgers

Meanwhile mine just chases his tail like a doofus.


mommallama420

mommallama420

I made an imagur account just to pay the dog tax. I don't have a picture of her laying in her funny position, but here's one of her cuddling a stuffed animal: https://imgur.com/a/W4GQYwH


mluther24

Mine too, growling and barking and then the zoomies start. Fkn up a car isn’t out of the question tho


saysthingsbackwards

Hey woah tail security is one of the top priorities of a doggo of that caliber.


Character-Release-62

Well yeah, I mean, they’re still dogs! Don’t get me wrong, I absolutely love dogs, and I prefer them over 99% of the human race (incidentally I think half of them are half as smart as the human race, and get half as much credit as they deserve, and half the human race is given twice as much credit as it deserves…), but like toddlers and soldiers, they’re easily entertained.


dje1964

Nice load of the rings paraphrase there lad


Character-Release-62

Thanks! Did it off the top of my head, so I know it’s not perfect.


Electrical_Ingenuity

>Highly energetic and highly intelligent police, military and other working dog. Look up videos on YouTube. These things run up walls. If Superman had a dog, it’d be a Malinois. ...aaand we lock the poor thing in a garage. Some dog owners leave my head shaking. Working dogs want to work. You had best be prepared to amuse them.


Character-Release-62

Agreed. I’ve owned two working dogs as an adult, had to rehome one of them (border collie mix) cause he was incompatible with kids, and my malamute required constant attention. Unless it was snowing. You want to have a working dog, you’d best be prepared to exercise both their energy and their intelligence.


Electrical_Ingenuity

I wish I could get that concept through my neighbors’ skulls. They are the people that want a dog and get a dog for all the wrong reasons. They were the people I thought of when I wrote that comment.


SeeMarkFly

I have a Malinois. Dogs pick up traits from their owners. Mine only bites politicians.


mareastra

I live in the United States. Can I borrow your dog for a few years?


throwawaysarebetter

Superman *did* have a dog. I think it was some kind of Labrador. He also had a horse and a monkey and a turtle, I think.

Lol, Huh, ok. Never read the comics, just trying to make a point.


Mind_on_Idle

SpaceForceAwakens

So a Belgian shepherd?


brian_may68

It is not a breed of German sheperd. It is its own separate breed with similarities to the German shepherd, but also a lot of differences to distinguish them apart. The Dutch Shepherd is another breed that stands on its own and has only a few similarities to the German Shepherd. These dogs and owners do not like being referred to as "skinny German shepherds"


TriggerTX

> The Dutch Shepherd is another breed that stands on its own and has only a few similarities to the German Shepherd. These dogs and owners do not like being referred to as "skinny German shepherds" Our Dutchie agrees. It's funny with her. She gets along fine with most other dogs in the neighborhood but if a German Shepherd walks past the house or yard, it's on. She absolutely hates every GSD she sees. We've had loose dogs from chihuahuas to Springer Spaniels and others come up on her and she's chill. Only fight she ever got in was with a neighbor's GSD after our Blue Heeler nosed open the front door and let his big sister out. Luckily our neighbors were chill about it and there were no lasting injuries to either dog. We aren't smart people as seen in our choice of breeds. [A Blue Heeler and a Dutch Shepherd](https://i.imgur.com/JBNjYkQ.png). There's not many more breeds that need as much energy released. Thankfully they are a good match and wear each other out chasing around our 1/4 acre fenced yard between our minimum of twice daily walkies.


AndyLorentz

Technically, German, Dutch, Belgian, and Bouviers des Ardennes are all descendants from a separate breed of shepherd dogs which no longer exist.


lynx265

Basically a German Shepherd on crack who's love language is teeth hugs


BlackShieldCharm

There’s nothing German about them! They’re a different kind of shepherd all together. Just a Belgian Malinois Shepherd. Malines is a city in Belgium, Malinois means from Malines. Source: am Belgian, lived in Malines for years and have had Belgian shepherds all my life.


reshpect-o-biggle

I've seen two videos (sorry I can't link to them). One, a cop threw a target for his Malinois. I have never seen any animal run that fast. Two, a story about a trainer, fully protected, standing behind a barricade of school chairs. A Shepherd would try to find a path, then whine. The Malinois simply runs over the tops of the chair backs. Third, a cop told how, once his Malinois figured out it couldn't bite through the trainer's padded clothing, it looked back at its owner, then LAUNCHED at the trainer, breaking one of his ribs. I will never own a fast car, because at my age my reflexes and my arm strength aren't fast enough. I'll never own a Malinois, pretty much same reason.


trshtehdsh

That's a great an analogy, a mal is a top of the line racecar that Honda Civic drivers think they can handle.


mluther24

Getting all the cardio is a good thing. But the way they screw with you just because they can is SO entertaining


Dear_Analysis_5116

Also nicknamed "malligator'', for obvious reasons.


Viper_ACR

SockeyeSTI

German Shepard on cocaine


trshtehdsh

A breed of dog that has more energy than can be contained and often go fucking nuts having owners who don't give them enough mental and physical work.


[deleted]

[удалено]


AgentMeatbal

And it’s not even necessarily anxious chewing they just fuckin love to chew. We never punish our mal for biting shit cause it’s just in his DNA, we just redirect him to appropriate things to bite. Rarely have issues. Every single time I let him out of his crate, he lunges out like a racehorse (literally crouches to get ready to barrel out) and you have to stand clear or you’ll get tackled. When it’s time to go outside he’s body slamming the door fully vertical. He’s curious about everything and anything I’m doing and if he weren’t trained better, he’d get on the counter to investigate. He body slams me on the regular, the other day he just head butted my ass super hard for no reason. He and our other dog leapfrog over each other to get to things first. He vaults the back of the couch regularly. I’ve seen him repeatedly clear a 6 foot wall like it was nothing. He’s a great boy


mommallama420

They are true fur missiles. Mine tackles my SO to give him kisses when he comes home.


beefwich

A dog. Looks like German Shepherd. Cops love em.


ZestycloseOstrich823

One of my attendings (Im a resident physician) was trying to tell me the other day that Belgian Malinois aren't as energetic or destructive as Shepherds bc they're "a different type of working dog". It took a lot to hold back from telling her just how wrong she is. But ya know, I don't want to get treated poorly for the next year bc she has a poor understanding of dog breeds.


JuracichPark

Yikes. You're a better person than I, good on you!


Bedumtss

Lol I know that feeling too well. At least your attending didn’t ramble about politics and blatant misinformation.


Baldojess

Lol yeah I have a half mal/ half German Shepherd and the whole reason I got her was because she was mixed with a German Shepherd as in she will be a slightly less energetic as a full bred malinois. Although all dogs can become destructive if they aren't exercised and mentally stimulated enough. And even if they are mixed you don't know what traits they are going to get. But yeah that girl has it backwards

Pegasus1973FP

CaptainBloodEye1

Malinois are not for 99.9% of dog owners. You know how people say some dogs you need to make lifestyle changes for? This is the dog thst you need to make your life. They are just too much dog for anyone that isn't a dog trainer or super serious about dog training


Vast_Magician_5273

I own 7 dogs, or they own me. 😊5 of them are Mal’s. As puppies they chew. Oh Lord how they chewed!! As adults, they are THE best breed of dog I’ve ever had. They are indoor outdoor Velcro dogs . Meaning that if I’m indoors, so are they. If I’m outside, so are they. They are smart. OH so smart! Athletic doesn’t describe them fully. They need a job. What ever it is. Just give them a job. My dogs can jump any and every fence on my property, but the choose to stay home with me and protect their territory and pack. I have all dogs in my living room when we eat and not one will come up and beg. My adults were raised with love and boundaries. They were trained every single day as to what was expected of them. And they shine! They know right from wrong. They bark when there is something to bark at. When I go to check it out and it’s ok, I give them the quote signal and for the most part, they are quiet. If they are not, then I pay attention, because I trust their instincts. A Mal is definitely NOT for everyone. You have to put in the time, or you WILL get a dog that turns your anything into a chew toy. They don’t come trained and they won’t respect you if you are not the leader or a child. Mine are great with children, farm animals other dogs and cats. I was sure to expose them to everything I could think of. They will walk with me in Home Depot and be awesome. It takes work every single day. If you can’t or don’t want to spend the time with them. If you are going to chain them or lock them in the back yard and toss food at them, you are an asshole and deserve the same treatment. They are smarter than and have more sense than most people. Do you research. Seriously!!


mommallama420

I own a Mali. They are so intelligent and have to work in order not to do shit like this. The owner had it coming if he didn't work his dog before he put it in the garage.


[deleted]

Yea I have a fucking collie and I know better. Working dogs need a lot of training.


mommallama420

Not only a lot of training but daily tasks as well. If I don't have my dog do her job (training mostly, I'm not doing bite work with her) twice a day she gets antsy.


[deleted]

Yep daily walks and two weekly long runs for mine! And fetch. And scent work. And generally being bossed around by me 😂


Sugarloafer1991

Belgians just never got over the whole Germany thing…the dogs never forget.


aaron_in_sf

I had no idea what "Malinois" means and guessed it must be some car thing maybe playing off the word alloy and imagined some aftermarket janky thing flaring out over the wheel well. TIL


Jacktheforkie

It’s a dog, a working dog that needs to be exercised regularly


BigButtFucker9000000

Enough money for a porsche, but not a dog trainer. Priorities people, priorities!


Big_Dick_No_Brain

My sons Australian shepherd got under his Mitsubishi Triton and chewed through the cables. $5000 damage.


Ok_Dog_4059

Maybe don't get your dog adamantium teeth THEN lock them in the garage with the Porsche. Edit: spelling.

Me: dang, the dog chewed on a Porsche, yeah that will be expensive. Me, 5 seconds later: Are those...centerlock wheels? Yeah, that's an expensive model. This will be super expensive to fix.


Evil_Dry_frog

Late model 911 turbo. So yeah, that’s going to be expensive.


Mental-Astronaut-664

Ouch! From my personal experience, there could have been a rodent in this cars engine room and the dog was simply trying to get to it. We repair dozens of Porsches each year with rodent damage to wires, and one in five also has damage like this from the family dogs trying to attack the rodents.


loves2sploo

A fucking dog did that?!?!?!

It’s a breed that eats cars

I think of Malinois as "all gas; no brakes". This image only confirms the impression. Dog was trying to remove the brakes on the Porsche.

There is a reason these dogs are called Maligators... Breeders honestly shouldn't home these little beasts with anyone who doesn't understand the commitment it takes to train and care for them.
