Every so often, we encounter a soul that leaves an indelible mark on our hearts. During a recent trip to the beautiful Little Corn Island, I met a courageous island dog who captured my heart. She followed us back to our resort from across the island, instantly becoming a part of our journey. Life on the island, while breathtaking, is filled with challenges for many dogs. With no full-time veterinary care and food scarcity, survival is an everyday struggle. Unlike many of her canine kin who have a community to care for them, my little friend is alone, facing threats from larger dogs and enduring nights without a safe place to rest or a decent meal. Since coming back to Indiana, I have been determined to give her the loving home she deserves. The journey ahead is complex, involving flights from Little Corn to Big Corn, then to Managua, and finally to the U.S. She also needs immediate veterinary care and a health certificate for safe importation. In honor of her spirit and resilience, I am reaching out for your help. Your donations will ensure her safe passage to a life where she is cherished and cared for. Each contribution will support her travel costs and urgent vet care needed for her arrival. Please donate today to change her life forever. With your support, this little island dog can find warmth and love here in Indiana. Thank you for your generosity and compassion.

All money that is donated will go towards bringing sweet Ellie to the US.  A boat ride, 3 flights, Vet care prior to leaving Nicaragua(vaccinations, microchip and health certificates). Boarding at a rescue prior to coming to the US and her associated care while being there.  I am most grateful for Chay who is helping locate her on Little Corn and get her on her flight to Bug Corn and then onto Managua, and pass her on to Giovani who will assist me in getting all local paper work for her safe import into the US.  Any amount will help and even if you can not donate, share on your socials
