KulyaThe War Dog

Куля means bullet. The soldiers who fed her on the front line gave her the name. She has earned it twice over.

Fed by soldiers. Named by soldiers.

In the first year of the war, on the front line in the Kharkiv region, a small dog with enormous ears started turning up where the soldiers were. They fed her. She stayed. In her own way she had adopted them, and they gave her a name that fitted the place: Kulya. Bullet.

Then one day she was hit by a vehicle. An injured dog cannot be looked after on a front line, so the soldiers asked K9 Rescue to take her. It was August 2022, before the region was liberated.

The hip was nothing. The scan found the war.

The hip injury from the road turned out to be minor. But the CT scan showed something nobody had expected: a piece of shrapnel embedded in her head. She had been carrying it around the front line, eating with the soldiers, wagging at them, the whole time.

Surgery removed it. Kulya came round, ears first.

Drag the scan line across her head. When you find it, take it out.

She was meant to leave. She stayed.

After surgery she went into foster care with a Ukrainian family in Kharkiv. The plan was a home somewhere in the EU, far from the war.

Her foster mum fell deeply in love with her. She already had more than enough animals. She asked to adopt her anyway. K9 Rescue couldn't refuse: Kulya was just as deeply bonded to her.

So Kulya stayed in Kharkiv. It means she lives with bombs all around her. K9 Rescue is still in touch to this day and regularly sends her mum food and supplies, because Kharkiv remains under wartime conditions.

The supply line that never stopped

Delivered. Again.

days since August 2022, and she is still there, still fed, still loved.

At home she answers to Pulya.

Kharkiv sits in a mostly Russian-speaking part of Ukraine, close to the border, and plenty of people there speak only Russian. So at home her mum calls her Pulya (Пуля), and sometimes Puleshka, which is what you call someone you adore.

Пуля is the Russian word for bullet. Same dog, same name, just said the way they say it in Kharkiv.

A war dog, on a coin.

The coins people remember are built around one real animal and one real story. Kabosu had DOGE. Kulya has this. Her face is the mark, her story is the reason, and every single trade pays the charity that carried her off the front line.

Nothing here needs K9 Rescue to do anything. The charity only receives: its share of the creator rewards lands, automatically, in the wallet it already publishes, and every payment is listed in the supply log below.

A direct gift goes from your wallet straight to K9 Rescue's, the charity that still sends Kulya's family food and supplies in Kharkiv and feeds strays in frontline cities. This page never touches your money: your own wallet signs and sends it.

K9 Rescue's own figure: £8 buys a 10kg bag of feed. Volunteers on the front line cook it into porridge and feed thirty dogs at a time.

The charity that carried her out.

K9 Rescue is a UK charity with a no-kill, kennel-free sanctuary in West Wales. Much of its work is in Eastern Europe and Ukraine, where the stray animal crisis is at its worst, partnering with grassroots rescuers and shelters to provide food, veterinary aid, spay and neuter support and emergency care.

Since 2022 the war has transformed that work: emergency aid, food, medicine and veterinary supplies from suppliers in Kyiv and Odesa, animals evacuated from the conflict zone, and feeding programmes in frontline cities. Looking ahead, its focus is large-scale sterilisation, because with most government schemes in Ukraine suspended, animals are breeding unchecked.

K9 Rescue has believed in crypto's potential to help animals since 2017. It is the charitable beneficiary of this project and nothing more: it does not issue, run, promote or endorse the coin, and it has no part in this website.

Questions people ask.

Is this run by K9 Rescue?

No. This is an independent community project. K9 Rescue has not issued, approved or endorsed the coin and takes no part in running or promoting it. K9 Rescue is solely a charitable beneficiary, receiving its share of the creator rewards directly into the Solana wallet published on its own website.

Is Kulya all right?

Yes. The shrapnel is out, the hip healed, and she lives with the family in Kharkiv who fostered and then adopted her. The city remains under wartime conditions, which is why K9 Rescue still sends her mum food and supplies.

Where exactly does the money go?

K9 Rescue's share of the creator rewards is paid from the coin's fee vault directly to the Solana wallet the charity publishes. The charity does not give this project access to its wallet, and every payment can be checked on the blockchain through the supply log on this page.

How much goes to K9 Rescue?

A 1% fee on every buy and sell generates the creator rewards. 90% of those rewards go to K9 Rescue and 10% stays with the team that runs the project. The split applies to the rewards, not to the value of trades. No part of the coin's supply is set aside for the team.

Can I adopt Kulya?

No, and that's the happy ending: she's home. K9 Rescue lists the dogs that are waiting for a family on its own website, and adoptions and fostering go directly through the charity.

Why "Bullet"?

Куля is the Ukrainian word for bullet. It's the name the soldiers on the front line gave her when she adopted them. After the scan found shrapnel in her head, it turned out to be truer than anyone knew. At home in Kharkiv, where many people speak Russian, her mum calls her Pulya (Пуля), the Russian word for bullet, or Puleshka as a term of endearment. Same name, different language.

I'm in the UK. Can I take part?

Cryptoassets are high risk and largely unregulated in the UK, and promotions of them to UK consumers are restricted. This website is not directed at people in the UK. If you are in the UK, please don't treat anything here as an invitation to buy, and consider a direct gift to K9 Rescue through the charity's own website instead.

Is this financial advice?

No. Digital coins can go down as well as up and can lose all their value. Nothing on this page is advice, and no income or outcome is promised to anyone.
