Some heroes leave a lasting pawprint long after their service ends. HuggleGroup™ is incredibly proud to once again support Project K-9 Hero with a very special tribute to K-9 Yoube, a beloved Dutch Shepherd whose story is one of service, resilience, and an extraordinary life after retirement.
Yoube faithfully served her community as a narcotics detection K-9 before retiring and becoming a National Ambassador for Project K-9 Hero. As she grew older, Yoube faced new challenges and eventually required the use of a canine wheelchair. Through it all, she continued to show the same strength and spirit that defined her years of service. With the support of Project K-9 Hero, Yoube received the lifelong medical care she needed while remaining where she belonged, alongside her handler.
Our K-9 Yoube Knottie® was created to make her story part of her tribute. Her custom wheels honor the wheelchair that helped keep Yoube moving during her senior years. One wheel shares her heroic story, while the other features a real photograph of Yoube, making every toy a special reminder of the remarkable dog who inspired it.
By creating this special tribute Knottie® to Yoube, HuggleHounds® is honored to celebrate her life and help support the retired Police K-9s and Military Working Dogs who have given so much in service to others.
Every Knottie® is designed with multiple squeakers, our signature knotted limbs designed for seriously engaging playtime, and a durable 2-layer Tuffut Technology® lining. Knotties® are our best sellers and backed by the quality that comes with every HuggleGroup™ Heart!
