Security is always a concern. There is no finer companionship and security than a well trained protection dog. There is no better provider of this type of dog than Wayne Simanovich. He knows what he's doing. Our dogs are a big part of our family.

Thanks Wayne. Just what we needed. We love him.
The Belgian Malinois
The Belgian Malinois, done right.
I've bred, imported and trained working dogs since 1978, and for most of that time the Belgian Malinois has been the other half of my program alongside the German Shepherd. Anyone who has watched a good Malinois work knows why. A good one possesses excellent working ability and many of the traits we want in the home.
Choose carefully because that working ability in the form of uncontrollable energy is why most people should not buy one from most places that are selling them. A Malinois with the wrong genetics, or one that was brokered off a training field and shipped, is not a personal protection dog. It's a problem you now live with. The dogs we place have been selected for strong nerves and a clear head first, then trained here by my staff, day in and day out, until they are the same dog on Tuesday morning at your kitchen table that they are on the training field. That is what Huggable Security™ means: a dog that will deter a threat and then go lie down by the couch.
Every Malinois we sell comes from genetics I chose, was trained by people who have been with me for decades, and is delivered to your door by a handler who gets you started down the path of Huggable Security™.
Is a Malinois the right dog for you? I'll tell you the truth here, because it saves us both time. A good Malinois or a good German Shepherd is a lot of joy to own. If you want a dog that is a constant motor running performing stunts like you see on social media, I'm not your guy. If you want a manageable dog that is capable of the protection phases at a high level, you've come to the right place. Chosen properly, a well trained and balanced Belgian Malinois can be as good as it gets and an absolute joy to own. Choose wrongly, and you and your dog will be miserable.
When we talk about your lifestyle, we'll ask about your household, your routine, your property and what you actually want the dog for. Then I'll tell you which of my dogs is right for you, and sometimes that's not the one you called about. That's how it has worked since 1978.

A Team That's Been Here for Decades
My trainers spend months with every dog, then deliver it and train your family in person. We're a phone call away for the life of the dog.
Fully Trained Adult Belgian Malinois
The finished dog. Eighteen to thirty-six months old, obedience and protection work proofed under distraction, socialized in the real world. You get the result, not the project. Fully trained adult Belgian Malinois are $45,000–$65,000.
See Fully Trained AdultsSee Pricing
Trained Adolescent Belgian Malinois
Five to eighteen months old, obedience trained, protection foundation started, and priced by how far along the dog is. For the owner who wants to be part of the finishing and has the time and the will to do it right. Trained adolescent Belgian Malinois are $10,000–$25,000. Availability can be limited, but I often recommend this age group as a good fit. There is no finer genetic material and my staff is talented.

Belgian Malinois Puppies for Sale
Eight to twelve weeks old, from the same genetic material that produces our trained adults. A puppy is the start, not the finished protection dog: you raise it, and our team is a phone call away while you do. For the owner who wants to build the bond from day one. Belgian Malinois puppies are from $5,500. Litters are limited, so call or use the form below to hear what's coming.

How Much Is a Belgian Malinois?
The short answer, with no "call for price": Belgian Malinois puppies from our program are from $5,500. Trained adolescents are $10,000 to $25,000. Fully trained adults are $45,000 to $65,000. Every dog we have for sale shows its price on the card above. Here's what goes into those numbers, and how to tell whether a Malinois is worth the money. For the full breakdown, puppy to fully trained, see our Belgian Malinois price guide.
Why Belgian Malinois Prices Range So Widely
Three things set the price: the genetic material, the age, and how much training is already in the dog. A puppy is genetics and potential. An adolescent has its obedience and the start of its protection foundation, and the price climbs with how far along it is. A fully trained adult is the finished dog: eighteen to thirty-six months old, proven under distraction, with months of daily work by my staff behind it. You're paying for the time and the result.
What a Cheap Malinois Really Costs
A Belgian Malinois puppy from a pet breeder or an online listing often runs $1,000 to $3,000. Some of those make fine pets. But the Malinois is a high-drive working breed, and with the wrong genetics that drive becomes a dog you can't live with. By the time you've paid a trainer to fix it, the cheap dog isn't cheap anymore. I've said it for years: when you buy quality, you only cry once.
What a Trained Belgian Malinois Costs Elsewhere
Shop around and you'll see trained Malinois quoted anywhere from $45,000 to $250,000 and up, often with no price on the page and only a few dogs to look at. Our fully trained adults are $45,000 to $65,000, and you can see the dog, the video and the price before you ever pick up the phone. Price alone isn't the measure. The dog is. Come see ours.
What's Included at Every Price
Fully trained adults also come with hands-on handler training, either at your home with one of my trainers or here in Conover with our staff. Delivered to your door.
What It Costs to Keep a Belgian Malinois Each Year
Plan for the upkeep, too. Rover's 2025 cost-of-ownership report puts a typical dog's yearly care at $1,390 to $5,295, with food alone at $655 to $1,905 and pet insurance at $602 to $1,120. A working Malinois lands in that range: premium food (we feed Inukshuk Professional, 3 to 4 cups a day), routine vet care and preventives, a crate, collars and leashes, and the occasional tune-up session with our team. Small numbers next to the peace of mind.

48 Years. One Standard. The Man Behind Every Dog.
My name is Wayne Simanovich. Training protection dogs since 1978 — that's not a marketing number. Nineteen years old when I started, and still doing it every day.
Competing against the best dogs and handlers in the world, across six countries, and placing dogs with executives, politicians, entertainers, athletes, and government officials. But the phone calls that matter most are the ones from families who just want to feel safe in their own home. Those calls come in every day.
The world is not a safe place. The stories come in daily. People who've had a break-in. People who live alone and don't sleep well. People whose jobs make them visible. People who just had kids and started thinking about security for the first time. The answer is always the same: a well-trained dog changes the equation.
A protection dog turns constant vigilance into quiet confidence. You stop checking the windows. You stop lying awake listening. The dog is listening for you. And it's also your companion, your family member, and a lot of fun. That's the whole point of Huggable Security.
Founded this company in 1978. Most of my competitors weren't born yet. Every piece of genetic material we breed from is personally selected, and the standard every dog has to meet is set by me. But this isn't done alone. My staff has been with me for decades — some of them more than thirty years. They're the reason this standard holds. It hasn't moved in 48 years, and it's not going to.
When your dog arrives at your door, it's the product of a time-honored system and a staff that has raised hundreds of dogs for families just like yours. We've changed a lot of lives. Welcome to Huggable Security.

What To Expect with a trained protection dog
Health
A Fully Trained Adult is a young dog in its prime — vibrant, strong, with a responsive immune system, and past the vaccination stage. Before a dog is ever bred in our program, we screen the breeding partners for congenital health defects and radiograph hips and elbows. Good health starts with the genetic material, and we start there.
