This is Minnie Pearl 18-285. Isn't she adorable? Minnie came to us as a foster, a retired breeder who was in pretty tough shape. She was found on Craig's List after having a stillborn litter and was determined to be "of no value" to her owner. Lucky for Minnie, she found her way to RAGOM where she received the medical care that she so badly needed. In addition to having bilateral ear infections that were determined to be chronic due to the extensive scarring seen, she was found to have hookworms that necessitated 3 rounds of treatment to clear, mammary tumors that needed to be removed, and 3 broken teeth. Oh, and did i mention that she also needed to be fixed up so that she would be having no more puppies.......EVER! After many, many months of trips back and forth for her to receive the best veterinary care in the world (thanks to Waconia Area Veterinary Clinic), you wouldn't even recognize her as the dog that was so lost and confused back in January 2019.
The most important thing to mention is that RAGOM paid for ALL of her medical bills. Everything. Including the heartworm, flea and tick preventative treatments. And RAGOM does this for ALL dogs that come in through their intake process.
We are late in starting our fund raising efforts for Goldzilla 2019, but I hope that you will consider helping Minnie (and Big Sister, Kayla Marie!) as we join in the efforts to save even more dogs (like Minnie & Kayla) next year. #RescueMatters and every little bit helps!
Thanks - from the bottom of our hearts,
Minnie & Kayla
