Belgian Malinois Hollywood superstar Channing Tatum is making a return to the box office after a five-year hiatus, starring in and co-directing a movie that puts military working dogs in the spotlight. The MGM movie “Dog” is about the relationship between Army Ranger Briggs (Tatum) and Lulu, a Belgian Malinois military working dog.

Belgian Malinois Channing Tatum stars as Briggs alongside Lulu the Belgian Malinois in the movie "Dog".

The film was inspired by a real road trip director Channing Tatum took with his dying dog, a pitbull mix also named Lulu, after she was diagnosed with cancer in 2018. Tatum told Yahoo! News, "When I went on my last road trip with my puppy, [I experienced] that feeling of, 'There's nothing I can do.

However, by the end of Dog, Briggs not only decides to keep Lulu but also writes a poem about how she's changed him and made him better. This would have been completely out of character for Briggs at the beginning, but the ending of Dog is indicative of just how much he's changed.

Co-director and star of the film, Channing Tatum rescued a mix-breed dog named Lulu in 2008. She lived with him for the last decade of her life, passing away from cancer in December of 2018. The real Lulu was a Pitbull Catahoula mix while the fictional Lulu is portrayed by a Belgian Shepherd.

Briggs spent a lot of time trying to avoid pretty much everything in his life before Lulu. However, by the end of Dog, Briggs not only decides to keep Lulu but also writes a poem about how she's changed him and made him better.

The final transition to death comes when a dog's organs shut down, they stop breathing, and their heart stops beating. Once breathing and heartbeat have stopped for 30 minutes after a natural death, pet parents can be assured that their dog has passed away.

Lulu - played in the film by three Belgian Malinois dogs named Lana, Britta, and Zuza - shares a name with and is loosely inspired by the relationship between Tatum and his late, beloved pitbull-Catahoula mix who passed away in 2018.
