Meet the breeder
I'm Moriah H., the breeder behind Grit & Grace Malinois located in Spencer, IN. We breed well-rounded Belgian Malinois for work and for responsible companion homes. Our dogs excel in a variety of fields. We decided to start a responsible, in-home breeding program in order to produce quality working dogs that also fit into a home setting. These dogs can do it all, and we make sure to develop that versatility in our puppies beginning from the moment they're born.
Q. & A. with Moriah
Why did you start breeding?
I was always raised around working line German Shepherds. Even though I love GSD's tremendously, after I worked with a Malinois for the first time, I knew that the Malinois breed was for me!What makes your program special?
Having balanced working dogs has always been of great importance to me. I wanted to create a breeding program specifically for the purpose of workability and livability--a balanced K9!Where do your breeding dogs live?
They live in my home.

+4Although I did not have a lot of contact with the girls, what little I did was very nice. They really seem to love their dogs and my little one definitely loved them. Their facility was very nice and incredibly clean, you would never even know there was a kennel. Its a beautiful area and a great place for these animals to begin their lives. My puppy was obviously socialized, she's great with people, other dogs and she quickly learned what a cat is and that they have claws. 😊 At my age, this will be my last puppy. That being said, if I ever was to get another one, I would absolutely go back to these young ladies.
