A neglected bald puppy, who looked more like ''a seal'' than a dog after her owners ignored her skin disease, is now thriving as she enjoys a ''healthy and happy'' life. The mistreated Staffordshire Bull Terrier, Pearl, was only four months old when the RSPCA rescued her from a home in April this year, Wales Online reports.
Inspector Rowena Proctor discovered the poorly dog, who had lost her fur, in the doorway of a property in Newcastle, after she was informed by a member of the public about Pearl's condition. The pup was taken for some emergency veterinary treatment after her owners agreed to let her go, and medics discovered Pearl was severely underweight and suffering from a skin disease which caused constant irritation and fur loss.
Pearl has since made a miraculous recovery and is doing ''absolutely amazing'' and is ''full of energy and life'' while she patiently waits to be adopted. Rowena said: “The transformation she has undergone is absolutely amazing."
