This Dog Is Giving A Little Boy A Chance To Live – PROOF That Dogs Can Save Lives!

Lucas Hembree, an adorable boy in Knoxville, Tennessee, suffers from Sanfilippo syndrome, an extremely rare degenerative disease that robs children of their ability to function. Juno, a Belgian Malinois, was living in a shelter and only days away from being euthanized.

The Hembree family wanted a service dog to help Lucas, but the astronomical price made that impossible. Instead, they brought home Juno. I won’t ruin the video for you, but let’s just say it was the best decision they could have possibly made. Whether they’re trained service animals or not, all dogs form a special bond with their favorite person. I’m just happy that Lucas and Juno found each other. Please SHARE if you are, too!
