This is a video of Kaylo the service dog. He is traveling across the country with his owner who drives a semi truck. A service dog works well for their person no matter where they are!!

Our Service Dog non-profit relies extensively on donations from people like you and we need your help now!
These life saving puppies need food, toys, blankets, training equipment, etc. You can also donate money that goes towards all their needs.
Any and all help is greatly appreciated. We thank you so much for your support!

The puppies are 4-weeks old. They are still growing leaps and bounds as they do at this age which is a fun age for us to begin their training.
They are learning a ton but we want to hear from you about what you want to see in training a puppy, questions you have or suggestions.
We are looking forward to hearing from you!!!

Hey everyone, we are so sorry for the delay in posting. A LOT of changes have happened with the babies and mom and we have had our hands full.
The puppies are now 3 1/2 weeks old and have surpassed every milestone marker.
All eyes are fully open, all have a lot of top teeth and some have bottom ones. They are not only walking but starting to wobbly run. They have also had their first front nail trim.
We began a slurry mix of ground of dog food and milk replacer at 2 1/2 weeks. We only started them this early because mom (Jyra) developed Mastitis with a bacterial infection which required antibiotics and her to be away from them for good. Basically this means we are feeding around the clock. However all are thriving thus far. Stay tuned for videos and updates please!
If you are interested in one of the puppies, please let us know as soon as possible as we are reserving them quickly to appropriate homes.

Good afternoon, we will be posting individual puppy videos for everyone in the next couple of days. Their eyes are either mostly or fully open and they are becoming more mobile everyday.
We are also seeing their personalities and temperaments emerge more & more each day.
The litter is owned by "Pawsitive Difference", and will be available for purchase. However any training, if requested can be either run through "Pawsitive Difference" or the non-profit "Pawsitive Directions", only if certain criteria are met.
"Pawsitive Difference" can provide all of the basics, competitive and protection training if requested, along with some Service Dog training. The cost for these sections of the training process are dependent upon the owners needs and level of training desired.
"Most"all Service dog training will go through our non-profit "Pawsitive Directions", if certain criteria is met...

Good afternoon everyone. I wanted to give you an update on the puppies.We originally had 11 puppies born and have unfortunately we have lost 2.
The sad, but honest truth of having puppies is that there is a chance of a 20-30% mortality rate in the first three weeks of life.
The picture attached to this post shows the one with the orange collar we lost.
This far the others are rapidly gaining weight and meeting milestones which is exciting!

Hey everyone!! It's been very busy at puppy central. The babies are now 8 days old and growing so quickly.
For anyone interested in one of these incredibly intelligent dogs please either call or message me.
We have both parents on site as well as a several generation pedigree as both parents are AKC registered and health verified.
In this litter there are a couple of puppies that may be pet potentials, several who have service dog potential and possibly some full working dogs. Granted, this is still very early in the process. However, if you are thinking about a Belgian Malinois, we have an ever growing list of folks that are interested. We would encourage you contact us as soon as possible to be placed on the list.
I have a vetting process for potential new owners, to help ensure this breed is the right fit for you, your family & living situation.
Our waiting list is not based on first come, it is based upon the correct fit and need. Basically the tasks or job the dog needs to fulfill.
We are excited to hear from you!!

Hi I everyone. We had 11 puppies but unfortunately lost one. We still have 10 healthy babies thus far and today you will see their sweet faces an collar colors for easy identification.
I will be posting their pictures today. They are such an active bunch.

We have 11 puppies on the ground! Here is a picture of the babies and the puppy area. The babies are in the front area so I can clean their space and then place them into the back where they stay with mom. We are doing supplemental bottle feeding for the 3 littlest ones to ensure they have what they need to give them the best chance at survival. However the rest of the litter is plump and happy!
We do attach names to our puppies and will be placing tiny colored puppy collars on them tomorrow. The names are easiest for us for identifying them along with the collar colors.
We know that any new potential owners will change them and this is perfectly fine with us!
We are keeping extensive records of each puppy daily. Our records are to help us best fit a potential owner to the dog that is best suited for them.
Stay tuned for videos tomorrow!!
