Atos is a two-year-old Belgian Malinois who has been raised within a family home by one of our team members. This upbringing has given him a wonderful balance between the qualities of a serious protection dog and the temperament required to become a genuine part of family life.

Medium in build and naturally athletic, Atos is an affectionate, happy and outgoing male who thrives on companionship. He loves affection, has a particularly lovely temperament with children and is straightforward and enjoyable to handle. Socially, Atos is confident and comfortable around people. He is happy to interact with others while remaining attentive and responsive to his owner. Around the home, he is respectful and relaxed, with a naturally affectionate character that makes him an easy dog to live with.

When protection is required, Atos shows a very different side. He is exceptionally quick to react, tenacious and committed when defending those close to him. Just as importantly, once the situation is resolved, he can switch off and quickly return to his calm, sociable nature.

His athletic, medium-sized frame also makes Atos an extremely practical personal protection dog. He can comfortably accompany his owner on trains, in taxis and on public transport, making him an ideal choice for someone who wants their dog alongside them as part of everyday life. Atos represents exactly what many families are looking for in a modern protection dog: affectionate and sociable in everyday life, easy to travel with, yet fast, confident and committed when his family genuinely needs him.
