Penelope Rose Faubion DCAT CGC CA TKA VHMA VSWB *Retired from breeding* Penelope is an exceptionally smart and high-drive Belgian Malinois. Penelope’s precision and dedication are evident in everything she does, excelling in disc, dock diving, lure coursing, bitework, and rally obedience.

Faubion’s Order of the Phoenix BCAT CA Phoenix represents the versatile side of our breeding program, combining strong working ability with an exceptionally social and stable temperament. She is an athletic, driven female with excellent prey drive and a confident, people-oriented personality that allows her to thrive in a wide variety of environments. Phoenix is currently training in mantrailing with the goal of certifying as a search and rescue trailing dog in the near future. She also enjoys a variety of dog sports and activities, including lure coursing, dock diving, and rally obedience. Her enthusiasm for work, environmental confidence, and ability to focus around distractions make her an excellent candidate for detection and search work. This breeding will not occur until after Phoenix completes her final OFA hip and elbow evaluations at two years old. As with all of our breedings, no decisions will move forward unless health testing is complete and approved. Phoenix is a large, powerful female with strong prey drive and excellent athleticism. What truly sets her apart, however, is her temperament. She is extremely social, friendly, and confident with people and other dogs, with the kind of clear-headed stability that allows her to work comfortably in public settings. This balance of drive and sociability is something we value greatly and aim to preserve in her line. We plan to pair Phoenix with Spyro MR3, an accomplished Mondioring 3 dog known for producing medium to large sized dogs with strong working ability and stable temperaments. This pairing brings together athleticism, prey drive, environmental confidence, and social stability, with the goal of producing versatile working dogs capable of excelling in sport, detection, and search and rescue work. The goal of this breeding is to produce well-rounded, high-drive puppies suitable for sport homes, detection work, search and rescue, and active companion homes dedicated to training and enriching these dogs. While this breeding will not take place until after Phoenix completes her health testing, we are currently accepting applications and waitlist deposits for this pairing. Applicants should have clear plans for sport, working outlets, or advanced training, and placements will be made carefully based on temperament fit, drive level, and handler experience. Additional updates will be shared as Phoenix continues to progress in training and completes her final health testing.

Faubion's Warrior of Light Ahsoka is our keeper female from our Alex x Emma litter. As a young puppy, Ahsoka is already showing an excellent balance of confidence, curiosity, and engagement. She is social and environmentally comfortable, with a thoughtful temperament and strong working drive for her age. She approaches new situations with interest rather than hesitation and shows early signs of both problem-solving ability and athleticism. Ahsoka is being raised with a strong foundation in engagement, neutrality, and relationship-based training. As she matures, our plans for her include bitework, detection, and agility, allowing us to fully evaluate her drives, nerve, and versatility. She will not be bred until she has completed final OFA hip and elbow evaluations at two years of age (Oct 2027) and has demonstrated herself both physically and mentally in training. Until then, she will remain focused on development, titles, and real-world working proof. We are excited to watch her grow into the dog she is clearly capable of becoming. Follow her progress and join her waitlist if you are interested in a 2028 puppy.
