Beyond Companionship: The Role of Assistance Dogs in Transforming Lives
In this inspiring episode, Beth chats with Sarah, who shares her remarkable journey with her assistance dogs, Kiki and Nellie. From everyday motivation to extraordinary moments—like attending a Buckingham Palace garden party and even detecting Sarah’s ovarian cancer—these incredible dogs have been so much more than companions.
Sarah also opens up about how her dogs have given her independence, lifted her spirits, and connected her with a supportive community through her guide dogs’ fundraising group. This episode celebrates the unique and life-changing relationship between humans and assistance dogs.
