Belgian Malinois | 5 years old | Large (59 pounds)
Female | Reseda, CA
ABOUT BETSY
Personality: friendly, calm, easy to handle, focused on her person
Favorite things: too early to know what Betsy enjoys
Training: it's unclear whether Betsy has had any training, but her owner said she knows commands
Exercise: because she’s a Belgian Malinois, puzzles, finding things, and practicing with her handler will exercise her brain as well as her body
Care status: spayed, vaccinated, microchipped
Special notes: Betsy was brought to the shelter by her owner. She had impaled herself on a fence, and the owner waited six days before bringing her to the shelter with a large, untreated wound. We rescued her that same day and got her straight to our vet, where she underwent surgery. She’ll be available for adoption in August.
Rescued: Outta the Cage rescued Betsy from West Valley shelter on July 3, 2026
