Purebred Belgian Malinois? - Page 2

I was looking up "War Dogs" on the internet and I came up with these very similar looking animals.
How are the feet?

Also, there is a nice video up on Malinois Colors. Darker and lighter dogs exist especially in the working lines, but they tend to preffer a medium brown color with no white otherwise. Some great looking dogs in this Video.

Short hair black dogs are now permited.

Belgian Shepherd Dog / Belgian Sheepdog or Chien de Berger Belge can refer to any of four varieties of dog: Groenendael, Laekenois, Tervuren, Malinois. At times in history, there were other "varieties" as well. The brindle became known as the Dutch Shepherd (both a long, and short haired ) when not permitted for registry as a Belgian by the FCI. The FCI has recently (2012) announced that it will now allow the crossing of Malinois and Groenendael, which produces a short-coated black dog, previously not permitted. In Europe and Canada, the Belgian Shepherd is one breed. The same applies in the United States with the UKC registry, but not with the American Kennel Club (AKC).

I love how people who claim to "know" don't realize what colors a Mal can be. I would say she's a mix, but there are lots of mixes people call "pure," especially pertaining to Mals, Dutchies, etc. I have seen lots of Mals who are dark like that. That's not why I'm saying she's a mix. Looking at the hip/pelvis structure, croup, tail, legs, head and ears makes me say that, not her color. I see some Mal in the leg structure, but I see very skinny GSD in a lot of the rest of her. 

I agree with Jenni.  There is a trainer nearby who breeds malxGSDs.  He really likes his crosses.  This dog looks quite similar to his dogs.  I'll see if I can find a picture...
