MEET THE WORKING DOGS OF RIVAL K9
ENVY
Envy, an HBIC, and current breeding female is a 5 1/2 year-old Belgian Malinois, from Kludde and Thornes’ last litter. She comes from European lines, has a stout, compact frame, and weighs in at around 50 LBS.
But don’t let her size fool you. She will prove to you size doesn’t matter, with her vicious, head-thrashing bite.
RAYA
Introducing Raya, our 2-year-old Dutch Shepherd hailing from the United Kingdom. Raya boasts a robust physique, characterized by a sturdy build and dense, lean muscle mass. While she's sociable, her approach to work is precisely calibrated like a "push-button."
With a bite that's both deep and formidable, coupled with lightning speed in her movements, she strikes with the force of a hellfire missile. Weighing in at a solid 70 pounds, Raya is brimming with boundless energy, a keen eagerness to please, and an exceptional aptitude for scent work. She's a valuable asset to our breeding program, forming an unshakable bond of teamwork and support with her handler, Russ.
HELA
Meet Hela, our latest addition originating from Slovakia. Arriving as a 2.5-year-old female with the prestigious SVV1 title and showcasing remarkable proficiency in protection work, we're thrilled to welcome her into both our team and our kennel. Hela impresses with her flawless obedience, composed demeanor, and fearless determination when confronting challenges. Her bond with her handler, Russ, is unwavering.
Alongside her SVV1 title, she is adept in "bark and hold" techniques, tracking, and obedience, positioning her as a leading candidate among our breeding females. Blessed with a pedigree enriched with superior genetics, robust health, and a strong work ethic, Hela excels in both human and canine company. Despite her serene demeanor, she embodies the essence of "FAFO" – Fuck Around and Find Out!
KUDA
Kuda, a 4-year-old, son of Dreki & Envy, lives up to the hype of what is truly a protection dog. With elite levels of obedience, a strong protective drive for his humans, and a sneer at all who oppose him, Kuda is one of our resident kings of the Serengeti here in Utah. With a deep, crushing bite, menacing fight, and a torrent head-thrash, you do not want to be on the business end of this Malinois from Rival K9.
Kuda also possesses an incredible and acute olfactory system, showing scent-working skills that promise what he is looking for, will be found. You’ll likely see this guy in your nightmares as he haunts you while you sleep, and stalks you while he’s awake.

HADES
Hades, a 2-year-old Belgian Malinois, excels in scent detection and sports-related apprehension, protection, and deterrence. As the offspring of Dreki and Envy, he possesses an exceptional work ethic and an extraordinary nose, making him stand out in his field.
Friendly and sociable with both dogs and humans, Hades has a lively spirit. However, his playful nature doesn't compromise his protective drives; he's always ready to defend his humans against any threat. Plans are in place for Hades to sire future litters.
