Firewall K9’s Breeding Philosophy

We only produce a litter when we have a waiting list of homes. Strong preference for working and competitive homes as these are dogs that thrive with and desire to do things together with their families.

We carefully select the pairings from both inside and outside of our kennel based on multiple factors including health, temperament, and desired skills and abilities. All of our dogs are health tested and genetically profiled to reduce and eliminate known issues in the specific breeds.

All of our dogs live in and whelp in our home as well as puppies are raised in the home with substantial enrichment to prepare them for whatever their futures may demand. For any puppy buyers looking to pursue a specific purpose (ex. bite sport) or detection odor we will provide basic imprinting for the selected puppy prior to going to their new home. Puppies will be weaned to both kibble and raw to enable the easiest transition to the desired diet in their new home.

We provide support for the lifetime of your pup and social groups to stay in touch with other puppy owners and share milestones.

Cyber ‘A’ Litter (July 2024)

Germali’s Nero X Roxy

This was our first Malinois litter and is an exciting pairing between two dogs that are proven producers of both working and sport dogs around the world.

Germali’s Nero IGP 3, IPO 3, FH 1, FH 2, SH2, SPH1 - This is the first litter directly produced from Nero in the United States. We are thrilled to bring his genetics into our kennel and into the country. Nero brings power, speed, and intensity and has competed X times at the national and international level including winning the sleeve from the decoy 2 championships in a row. Overall Nero’s competitive history speaks for itself. He is the perfect fit for our breeding program because alongside the intensity is the bond with his handler and family, stability in the home and environment, and overall balanced picture of a confident dog.

Roxy IGP3 CGC FITB SAR is a large muscular female imported from the Netherlands with a rich lineage in Norwegian People’s Aid (NPA) mine detection dogs (MDD). She has proven her working ability not only on the field, obtaining her IGP3 before reaching 3 years old with very respectable scores, but also through her work as a Search & Recovery K9. After only 6 months of training she achieved her certification with the American Working Dog Association for Human Remains Detection and actively serves on a team. Roxy is a go anywhere, do anything dog who is full of life and love and without reactivity to environment, people, or animals (dogs, cats, small animals, farm animals). She has an extremely strong hunting drive which makes her perfect for detection work. Even with strong drives and deep, full grips she is a trustworthy and wonderful member of the house and pack.
