Warning: Cuteness overload.

Hula in training with her foster momma!

As many know by now, Hula was found tied to a fence with no food, no water, and no note, she had every reason to give up—but instead, she came back stronger. This little Belgian Malinois is all fire, focus, and love.

Hula isn’t just cute—she’s thriving. In her foster home (with 8 other dogs!), she’s already crate trained, potty trained, and impressing everyone with how quickly she learns. She loves having a job to do and approaches every training session with tail-wagging enthusiasm. Her eagerness to work, coupled with her natural intelligence, means she’s ready to excel in the right hands.

We’re looking for a home with prior Belgian Malinois experience (no exceptions) and a professional trainer already lined up. Hula’s potential is limitless—but she needs someone who understands how to channel her drive into greatness.

Today wraps up Give a Dog a Bone Week! 🐾 Why not celebrate the weekend and the dog days of summer by making these yummy frozen treats for your pup! You can see Ferris enjoying one -- they were gobbled up so fast it was tough to get a picture! 😆

Frozen Fruit Yogurt Treats
¾ cup blueberries (can substitute with other fruits, such as watermelon)
¾ cup greek yogurt
½ banana ripe

Add all ingredients into a blender or food processor. Blend until fully incorporated, about 90 seconds. Pour into your shaped silicone mold or an ice cube tray. Freeze until solid, 1-2 hours. Remove from molds and give as treats. Happy dog!

*Frozen treats can be messy, we suggest eating outside.
To store: remove the pupsicles from the molds to save freezer space. They last up to 3 months in a freezer bag.

If you haven’t already heard Hula’s story, she was found tied to a fence with no food or water at only 3 months old. But this girl? She didn’t break — she bounced back. And now, she’s all heart, all drive, and 100% Malinois magic.

Hula’s ready for her forever home — but not just any home will do.
Hula is very driven and will need a Malinois experienced owner. She’s crate trained, potty trained, and thriving in a foster home with eight other dogs under the guidance of an experienced trainer.

This girl is smart — scary smart — and she’s got potential for greatness. But she needs more than love.
She needs structure.

We’re looking for a Malinois-savvy adopter — no exceptions — and a professional trainer already on board. Hula’s not here for couch cuddles and casual walks. She’s here to work, bond, and become the best version of herself — with the right human by her side.

She’s not a beginner dog.
But if you’re experienced, committed, and looking for a next-level partner in crime…

Hula could be your once-in-a-lifetime dog.
