Chile’s most ambitious anti-drug dog audit went straight for a vice admiral’s pocket
A trained anti-drug dog unexpectedly lunges at a naval officer during a ceremonial event in Valparaíso, ChileDear Cherubs, what was meant to be a tidy Navy ceremony in Valparaíso turned into a very public example of “the mission comes first, hierarchy later.” A drug-sniffing Belgian Malinois, freshly graduated from an anti-narcotics training course, launched itself straight into a vice admiral’s trouser pocket and instantly became the main character.
It is the sort of clip the internet adores: formal uniforms, solemn faces, and then one dog arriving with the energy of a staff member who has found a typo on page one of the report. As noted by thisclaimer.com, ceremony and chaos are often separated by exactly one highly motivated dog.
TRAINING DAY, THEN WHAT?
According to Chile’s Customs service, the event marked the end of the second canine training course for the Armada. Over more than a month, Customs trained five Maritime Police officers and four Belgian Malinois dogs, with the course running for 356 hours and involving theory, practice, and exercises in places such as the Port of Valparaíso and even on vessels.
BioBioChile reported that the ceremony took place on May 7, and that the dog in question made a beeline for the vice admiral’s pocket while officers and canines were on stage. The video later spread widely, because of course it did: if a dog turns a formal graduation into slapstick, the internet will not let that go quietly.
The vice admiral involved was identified by the Navy as Arturo Oxley, who according to the Armada’s official biography is the Director General of the Territory and Merchant Marine and was born in Valparaíso in 1969. So yes, this was not just any pocket. It was a pocket with rank, history, and now a tiny bit of embarrassment attached.
THE POCKET SAYS IT ALL
The Navy later said the dog’s behavior was linked to its age, temperament, and activation level. Oxley was not injured, though his uniform did not entirely survive the encounter, and the dog was reported to be in good condition and undergoing re-training under the supervision of the Maritime Police.
That response is almost impressively calm. No drama, no scandal, no dramatic courtroom soundtrack — just a working dog doing what working dogs do, only with a little too much enthusiasm and a terrible sense of timing. In another universe, this is how every anti-drug message ends: with a dog that takes the assignment so literally it tries to frisk the brass.
The real punchline is that the ceremony was designed to showcase disciplined coordination between Customs and the Navy, and instead the dog delivered the most memorable compliance check of the day. Honestly, that is one way to make sure nobody forgets the training program. Mission accomplished, pocket not so much.

Built for Weather Like This
January 6, 2026 looked like the world hit mute and left the contrast cranked. Snow locked the yard down, and the big dog moved through it with a blue ball in his mouth like it was mission critical. No wasted motion, no cute nonsense, just breath hanging in the air and paws punching holes in winter. The little one tore after him in a striped sweater like a discount punk sidekick, legs flying, fully delusional about keeping pace with a four-legged tank. Beyond the fence, the neighborhood sat […]https://ericfoltin.com/2026/03/01/built-for-weather-like-this/

This Is Why I Look Like I’ve Seen Things
People love to ask why I look tired. Like it’s a mystery. Like I’m up all night partying in 1997. I’m not. I’m pinned to a mattress by 300 pounds of fur and feelings. These photos? One night. One completely normal, deeply stupid night. First problem: personal space is a myth. I fall asleep in a reasonable human position. I wake up folded like a lawn chair because a Belgian Malinois has decided my face is a pillow. Not near my face. On it. Direct eye-to-snout contact. Breath hot […]https://ericfoltin.com/2026/02/16/this-is-why-i-look-like-ive-seen-things/

So, ein letztes Mal muss ich euch noch mit der Zeichnung nerven, dann geht es an neue Projekte. Malinois Brisby und Äbbs in Pastellstiften auf 40x50 cm Pastelmat. Die beiden sind übrigens Mutter und Tochter, obwohl man ihnen das nicht unbedingt ansieht. 🥹
Falls ihr auch so ein liebevoll handgezeichnetes Portrait eures Haustiers haben oder einfach ein paar meiner Arbeiten anschauen wollt, meine Website ist in meinem Profil zu finden. <3
Gerne boosten, danke 🥰

#Hurricane, a #BelgianMalinois, rose to fame more than a decade ago when he spotted a man hopping the White House fence. Hurricane, a Secret Service canine, kept his jaws locked onto the intruder’s arm even as the man kicked, punched & slammed him into the North Lawn. The dog pinned the man in place so authorities could take him into custody.

She has beds her size, but sometimes, she just likes to be a tiny dog. ❤️ #DogsOfMastodon #BelgianMalinois

Timba often lies down next to me on the sofa & gives me her best I Am A Tiny Adorable Puppy face so I’ll tickle her chest. Once the tickling commences, she slowly oozes her way onto my lap. Even tho she doesn’t fit on my lap. 🥰 #BelgianMalinois #DogsOfMastodon

Swimming wears her out. #BelgianMalinois #DogsOfMastodon #MiddayNap #SilentSunday

When I (Timba’s spare human) go swimming, she maybe comes to the edge of the pool once or twice & stares until I speak to her—to, you know, make sure I’m still alive or whatever.
When Mr. Boots (Timba’s beloved daddy) goes swimming, she flings all 80 lbs of herself in the water & sticks to him like a giant hairy barnacle & makes huffy noises & sometimes even grabs his arm in her mouth & pulls until he’s back on the stairs in the shallow end.
She adores him. 🥰

Meet Kaia, our new dog. She is a Belgian Malinois mix.
My oldest found her in a parking lot and has been unable to find her a home. Like a sucker, I have decided to adopt her. This makes dog number 4 in our family. 🤦🏻♂️
