What's up dog?

Roger Taylor is tasked trained to help with my autism and my heart condition, without him I would be bed bound! I now am able to safely leave the house and he has saved my life by alerting to my heart condition before I pass out in dangerous situations! I also made friends because of him! I found a community of people also with disabilities and assistance dogs and made friends after struggling for years! He is my hero
