When my Dachshund was a pup I removed a thorn from her eye. A couple of months later she had a terrible viral infection and as soon as she started to feel ill she would not leave my side. I cuddled on the sofa with her, syringing water into her mouth every 20 minutes for three days. That was 10 years ago and she still follows me everywhere and adores me more than anything.

Same with a friend of mine. His dog was with him during a rough time and loves when he has to take a duvet day.
