The pup in the video below brings true meaning to the old saying, “dogs are a man’s (and woman’s) best friend.” It’s amazing that such a tiny little creature could have the sensitivity, on its own, to be so caring and loving. Nala, a teacup poodle seems to be a gift from heaven for elderly residents at the Minnesota Lyngblomsten nursing home. It all started when her owner, Doug Dawson, brought her to work one day when she was a tiny little pup. As Doug was dispensing the resident’s medication, Nala was dispensing love.
She had no training as a therapy animal, but instinctively knows that her presence and affection is doing more for these people than any medicine that can come out of a plastic container. As Nala has grown she has learned to cruise the nursing home on her own. Not only does she scurry from room to room visiting her friends each day, but she rides the elevator by herself so that she can reach everyone!
