What's up dog?
Summer started coming to work in aged care facility where I worked. She was the facility pet therapy dog.she never failed to put a smile on the residents faces or sit with them if they were distressed or calm them down.she is very in tune with humans its amazing thing to watch. It wasn't until a few years later I would discover this for myself. She was acting different toward me, clingy and always checking on me. Something was off with me so I went to my doctor and after tests I was diagnosed with cervical cancer. To this day I believe she smelt cancer and saved my life. She got me through treatment and the harder days.I am in the clear now but through treatment I developed high anxiety which she helps me with on daily basis.She is with me 24/7 and helps me navigate life in general
