dog. I didn't believe it when I heard that but she showed me pics. I love those big goobers but a service dog? I wonder who masterminded that one?

They use a smaller variety of Danes which serve by walking along by the human and providing a walking support.

One of their dogs - George - was the 2015 AKC Service Dog of the year.

He has stayed closer to her than any adult could over the same time span, never leaving her side, guarding her at every turn.

Now she can even ride her bike.

She's a tiny heroine, and he is her angel.

Thank you, TomSlick.
