Debbie Pearl spends most of her life rescuing dogs, particularly dogs with physical and mental differences, and she’s seen how animals can make an incredible impact on those around them.
Debbie is the founder of Dream Fetchers, a nonprofit that joins special needs animals with similarly-challenged humans. She believes that there’s no medical challenge that can’t be improved with the addition of a friendly dog, especially when those dogs have been through so much in their own lives. “Here at Dream Fetchers, we try our best to better the lives of those around us,” Debbie explained.
To support the nonprofit’s mission, Debbie has started a team of rescued dogs she calls The Unstoppables. The Unstoppables are comprised of Speedy, Zeek, Eddie, Pop, Kala, and Bunny Pop. Each of these animals has a tragic origin story, including being treated cruelly, thrown away, and left for dead due to birth differences. Once these animals are rescued, Dream Fetchers gives them training, love, and care to change the course of their lives forever. Nearly all of them have physical issues that require prosthetics(义肢) and wheelchairs, but, you guessed it, that doesn’t stop them! In fact, it doesn’t even slow them down.
Hoping to spread the word about the value of these animals and the mark they make on human lives every day, Debbie recently published a children’s book called “The Unstoppables,” based on the dogs’ adventures. She hopes the fun book helps children learn more about differently-abled dogs and all the joy they can bring to the world.
