Pearl - English Pointer and Labrador Retriever Dog for Adoption in Fairfield, Connecticut

LOOK AT ME NOW!... My name is Pearl, and I am now a pretty 7-month-old, 24-lb English Pointer/Lab mix pup, but just a month ago I looked like a wreck and was set to be euthanised at a Port Lavaca animal shelter in South Texas. I had demodex mange leaving my skin dry, crusty, bloody, and itchy, mostly on my face and legs, and I was scared and miserable. Then, out of the blue, 4 Little Paws Rescue saved me along with 27 other dogs and puppies and sent us all to foster homes in and around San Antonio. It turned out that just a pill and some medicated baths fixed everything for me, and now I am healthy, happy, and playful, with an amazing future waiting for me! So far, my fur has mostly filled in, I'm spayed, vaccinated, microchipped, up to date on preventatives, have veterinary records, and I'm ready to be adopted!

My foster mom wants you to know that I have a beautiful personality. Sweet and kind, I make friends easily with everyone I meet- grown-ups, kids, dogs, but kitty cats make me nervous. I love to play, and I am very affectionate, happily sharing kisses, and when I see my foster mom grab a pillow, I am the first one on the couch to snuggle beside her! I love dog toys and doggy treats, but broccoli isn't my favorite. I am good on a leash, and I enjoy a ride in the car. I am housebroken, know how to use a doggy door, and I don't guard my food or toys. I know I will be a wonderful addition to any home and find my way into any heart! Inquire about me today.
