Hi, I’d like to know if Belgian Malinois are authorised for hunting, and if so, what makes a good hunting dog?

    The Malinois is fundamentally a sheepdog.

    Sheepdogs are bred for retrieving and guarding (their flock).

    So, they are absolutely not cut out for hunting.

    Well, I’ve honestly never heard of a Malinois being used for hunting before.

    I did a bit of digging on a hunting forum and came across this—I haven’t read through the whole thread yet,

    Your best bet is to check with the people in the know, they’ll definitely have more info.
