Beulah

When Beulah the Pomeranian arrived at Magnificent Mutts Rescue, her documents named her as "Pom #26", after the "26" tattooed inside her right ear at the puppy mill where she had spent long years in a cage, producing babies for sale. Beulah also came with a patchy and badly matted coat, deformed "cage feet" and a mouth rotten with decayed teeth.

Amazingly, though, Beulah was friendly and trusting with the people she met on her rescue journey. Beulah received her intake vet care at EACC, where she was bathed, examined, dewormed, vaccinated, and spayed- and also had every one of her remaining ruined teeth pulled.

While at her foster home, Beulah displayed obvious pleasure in her new surroundings: the freedom, good food, grassy yard, kind words, and a soft bed. She learned to snuggle, and she learned to play. Beulah even bounced back quickly from her new toothlessness, and never once turned down a meal or snack.

Beulah soon found her Forever Family, who renamed her Autumn. With the help of her new mom Colleen, Autumn "wrote" her foster mom a lovely Thank-you letter, for helping her recover from her awful life in the puppy mill. Today, Autumn is "big sister" to another rescue dog.
