Pearl (aka Elsa)


Dear Friends: It is always a blessing to see the transformation of an animal we have helped. It makes it so worthwhile to have the good, happy ending stories like the one about Pearl, now known as Elsa.


Pearl was rescued by Polly and Nokomis, who brought her to the shelter last summer with a litter of 4 puppies. She was in very poor shape. The story was that she had been homeless in the Little Rock area for a couple of years and had been raising litters and trying to feed herself. Well in the process she had been shot more than once in the abdomen with a shotgun.




When she came, she really was not trusting humans. She was vetted and found out she was heartworm positive, had lymes, anaplasmosis and the RAVS vet would NOT spay her at the time of the August clinic due to her poor condition.


Thankfully she went to Animal Ark and got treated for heartworm and lymes, anaplasmosis and was spayed. She has been adopted to a loving home,. And just look at her before and after picture!! Amazing what we are seeing. Thank you all so much for helping play a part in rescuing Pearl and others like her!! Karen Good

  1. hi, my name Jessica May. I'm so happy to see she is doing so much better, all that time I thought she just had an ich, here she was shot, I still wonder who was cold enough to shoot a helpless animal, she was just trying to survive. In the end of all she and her puppies have gone through, I'm so greatful for all that Red Lake Rosies does for our animals. Pearl, it's amazing how far she has come, thank you's!
