Please help give Sheba a second chance.

Baby Sheba couldn’t eat. She couldn’t heal. She needed rescue.

Seven-month-old Sheba was suffering from a severe rectal prolapse for at least a week before help was sought. The only care given was to “clean her at home” while this sweet puppy stopped eating and continued to decline.

By the time Sheba reached us, she needed emergency surgery to save her life.

Doctors initially attempted to replace the prolapse and place a purse-string suture, but became concerned that something more serious was happening internally. During exploratory surgery, they discovered necrotic tissue in her colon that had to be removed immediately.

To spare Sheba future surgeries, she was spayed, and her painful cherry eye was corrected.

We are so grateful Sheba made it to rescue in time, but her medical care has been extensive, and she will continue to need close monitoring and follow-up care during recovery.

Please help us give Sheba the second chance she deserves

Sheba has already endured more pain than any puppy ever should. But today she is finally safe. She is finally being cared for. And for the first time in a long time, this baby has a chance to heal – with you by her side.

Sheba is slowly recovering but is still going to the bathroom more frequently than she should. She is receiving the best care possible right now.

8/3/26 Update

After the extensive surgery she needed to remove damaged colon tissue following her rectal prolapse, healing is going to be a gradual process. The good news is that she is happy, playful, eating well, and enjoying all the love she's missed.

But, healing takes time. The biggest focus is helping Sheba’s digestive system recover. She still has very frequent bowel movements and some straining related to the healing process, so we're continuing to work closely with her veterinary team to give her body the time it needs. We don’t yet know yet what her long-term needs will be.

For now, Sheba is exactly where she needs to be - with a loving foster family, excellent veterinary care, and so many people (YOU!) cheering her on.
