About Malakai - 4 Year Old Border Collie X Aus Shepherd
Meet Malakai 🐾
If you’re looking for a loyal best friend with brains, heart and a love for adventure — Malakai might just be your perfect match.
Malakai is an almost 4-year-old male Border Collie x Aussie Shepherd, combining the intelligence and loyalty of two incredible breeds. He’s the kind of dog who forms strong bonds with his people and truly thrives on connection.
What Malakai Loves:
• 🐶 Other dogs, toys and play time
• 👨👩👧👦 People (he’s incredibly affectionate!)
• 🌊 The beach and swimming
• 🚗 Car rides, & going in adventures
• 🏡 Relaxing at home with his family
Malakai is house-trained and comfortable being left at home for short periods, making him a wonderful balance of active companion and easy household member. He enjoys his adventures, playing and multiple walks a day, but is equally happy settling down once the fun is done.
He is cat and chicken friendly — a rare and special quality — and would suit a home with respectful children aged 5 and over ❤️
With his intelligence and eagerness to please, Malakai would love a home that can continue to engage his clever mind and active spirit while giving him the love and companionship he deserves.
If you’re ready for beach days, road trips, and a devoted shadow by your side, Malakai is waiting to meet you.
Malakai is in foster care in Killarney Vale, NSW. He is available for adoption interstate. His adoption fee is $600 and he is desexed, vaccinated, treated for fleas and worms, and microchipped.
