Luella the duck was raised by Pancake the Pug and Luella returned the favor of Pancake's good wishes by donating a copy of her dramatic life story to the Northern Illinois Pug Rescue and Adoption group (NIPRA).
On Saturday, September 15, NIPRA held its annual Pug Jam in Rockford, Illinois. Luella's stirring life story was one of the most highly sought after items in NIPRA's silent auction to raise money for the important work of pug rescue!
