Why I need a new home

Fostered

My story

Here's what the humans have to say about me:

Gushen is a striking young Malinois raised as part of our Paws with Purpose project dedicated to pairing dogs as companions for veterans, with the potential to grow into full-service roles. From the start, he’s been raised at a ranch with structure, love, and purpose. Unlike many high-energy Malinois, Gushen has a calm, steady presence. He enjoys lounging at your side, napping in the sun, and watching the world with quiet confidence. Yet, when it’s time to play, he runs with power, engages the pack, and shows the athleticism the breed is known for.

Respectful, non-destructive, and rarely vocal, Gushen communicates more through posture and awareness than noise, a grounded dog who adapts to the energy around him. Because he was raised with the goal of one day joining a veteran, we are especially seeking a foster family to continue his training and socialization. We also welcome qualified adopters who may not be veterans but can provide a stable, structured, and loving forever home.
