Jenko the Malinois, a young male (formally called Garrick) distinguishable by the unique, white marking across his stunning face.
Jenko’s rescue was considerably more traumatic than a standard rescue. The poor dog was savagely attacked by another dog that belonged to the owner of the slaughterhouse. As Jenko was being taken out of the slaughterhouse holding pen by dog meat traders, the other dog set upon him and dragged him back inside the pen, causing traumatic wounds to his neck.
Once back at the shelter Jenko was able to heal and learn to trust humans again. Unfortunately, he was diagnosed with pneumonia but he fought hard and beat the illness. He was taken under the wing of The malinois Rescue League, which funded all of his vetting, export, and transport costs. He was flown to the USA in October 2019 and now has a superb new home and family that have committed to making his life the best it can be. His rehabilitation is an ongoing process but he continues to steal the hearts of those around him and impress people with his resilience. His new family has shown extreme dedication and he has had specialist trainers, interactive toys, and tons of time and endless love to help him become the happy dog he is today. He lives each day to the fullest along with his siblings Mishka and Makana. Follow junks adventure on Instagram @takemoredetourss
