Maligator-proofing my Telly's interior

[JonFar111]

Good luck with the Malinois. One of my buddies is a police dog trainer and he had one for years. Be prepared for more exercise than you can possibly imagine!

Dog owners, I need your advice and perhaps some specific recommendations:

I'll be adding one, possibly two, Belgian Malinois "Maligator" pups to my life in the next week or so.

What do y'all use to line the cargo bed areas. Should I cover the 2nd row Nappa leather seats with some material that's more puppy teeth proof than Nappa leather?

This adorable breed of do-it-all dogs have been described by some owners as "German Shepards on methamphetamines" and I just want to give my Telly's interior a fighting chance against the legendary bite force of these little lovelies

Here's some preliminary photos of "Pink collar". Still trying to figure out a name for this girl, maybe Maggie or Bella or something easy and two syllables or less. Any input from y'all is appreciated:

Beautiful! Perhaps Hettie? Danish name means “rules her household”. I have boxers and had crates in the car when they were pups before they knew car etiquette. Called it the “chamber of good decisions”. Lol. Congrats! Keep posting the new additions!

I've had German Shepherds (working line) all my life until now when I have two mixed breed rescues. South Dakota sounds like a perfect place for your pups. My most recent GSD (pic in profile) was my buddy. I always thought she was kinda laid back until I saw her in action one day. I ran across a big snake while gardening then a fur missile launched herself, gave that snake a couple of shakes and poof, that bugger was dead. I was so surprised and impressed, I just sat on the ground and loved her all over. I miss her to this day, she lived until she was 12. Her name was Gunner, as suggested by my father-in-law, Lt. Col. USMC. Your maligators will do the same for your livestock. They are herders and protectors by instinct and breeding. Keep me posted on your puppers.

Rest in peace Gunner. 12 years on this Earth with y'all and being a great fur missile and family protector is a great life for a dog.

I keep hearing about the natural herding/protecting instinct that make them suited for many dog jobs. I want to give them more space to run and do what they do best, and since California is prohibitively expensive in that sense, South Dakota will be great.

Also, many areas in California discriminate against Belgian Malinois and they're sadly on many lists of HOAs, Universities, Apartment complexes that don't allow for this great dog. I firmly believe that here are no naturally bad dogs in the world, just bad people who can intentionally or unintentionally make terrible decisions that lead to unfortunate consequences for their dogs and others.

Y'all know I can't stop posting to Front-End Friday. I'll try to post some Maligator + Telly photos when I finally get them

I want two, but only the female "Pink collar" will be mine for sure. Someone put a deposit on her brother, who I also had my eye on, and it looks like he's going to go to a good home but sadly not with me

Seen this cargo cover on Amazon for pets. Well Amazon Canada, but looks like it could be good for coverage in the cargo area.

She just got her last vaccination and growing strong.

Hoping to pick her up soon
