ORKIN, dad
Belgian Malinois
About ORKIN
ORKIN is a dual purpose police K9 with several live deployments. ORKIN is an absolute powerhouse at 90lbs and has extreme possession, big, full, powerful, crushing grips with nerves of absolute steel both in and out of drive. He is extremely calm and confident on the bite and has never bat an eye at any pressure or challenge we have put him up against. ORKIN has power, size and intensity balanced with clarity and intelligence. He is a true joy to have in the home. No anxious destructive behaviors and is a very social dog with a great off switch. 100% health tested and clear this boy has it all and in our opinion is what a true working dog should be. He passes his wonderful traits on to his offspring and has proven himself as an asset to the future of working dogs.

Heart testing reduces the chance of passing down congenital heart disease, which can cause a range of symptoms ranging from trouble exercising to heart failure.
Dentition
A breeder may perform additional tests on their dogs that do not fall into these general categories. These tests may be more uncommon or very specific to a particular breed.
