Dogs tend to form a special connection not only with their owners but also with the people around them. They are also most likely to establish a bond with other people who give them so much attention. In short, the bond shared between a person and a dog solidifies through physical affection and deep attachment.
A 93-year-old woman, Sally, and a one-year-old Saint Bernard, Brody, share a special kind of bond every pet lover yearns for. In 1990, Sally was left on her own when her husband died and her four children resettled far and away. Fortunately, because of sweet Brody, she never felt alone and unaccompanied all through the years.
Sally has been living next door to Dave Mazarella in Mt. Vernon, Washington, for the past few years. With Dave being an animal lover, he has loads of pets under his care. Sally loves and cares for them all, but none of the guys has a special space in her heart as much as Brody.
Most days, aside from playing and cuddling, the giant fluffy Brody also loves paying a frequent visit to his favorite neighbor, Sally. It all started when Dave occasionally went to the old woman’s house bringing in the pooch with him. By constantly feeding Brody with treats, scratching him, and brushing his soft fur, the two fell in love in no time.
The periodic visit to Sally has gradually turned into Brody’s daily grind later on. The two spend most of their time cuddling together while watching the news and sometimes go for walks. The sweet pup also helps his human friend get her newspaper and even goes with her to church.
Sally has been fond of dogs back in the day, and she found Brody as a perfect furry friend that matches her liking. Despite her age, it doesn’t slow her down to keep up with the pup’s silliness, playfulness, and affectionate personality. Not being able to care for the pup herself, keeping the friendship she has with Brody is all that matters.
As of the present, Sally has been transferred to a care home and is healthy and happy. Her furry best friend Brody still enjoys paying her a visit along with his canine siblings.
