Dutchie VS Belgian Mali
What is the size difference between these two breeds (DS vs BM). Also I have seen a ton of videos on the agility of the Belgian Malinois. How does a Dutch Shepherd compare in agility (being able to jump over things and climb?) Thanks in advance!

They are basically the same dog. My Thalie could scale the big wall with the best of them. We also did Agility and she kept up with the other speed demons.

It all depends on the dog... the breeds are very similar in conformation and ability to move.. it's more on the temperament and drive of the individual dog you are looking for
