Nala is a teacup poodle who visits a nursing home in Minnesota with her owner Doug Dawson. Nala wasn’t trained as a therapy dog, yet Nala provides love and affection to the residents of Lyngblomsten. Doug prescribes medication at the nursing home while Nala ventures through the nursing home all by herself to visit those in need of love. She even takes the elevator all by herself. The residents at the nursing home say that Nala was Heaven sent and Doug says, “Nala is doing God’s work”.

I saw this float around my newsfeed the other day. I loved the lady at the end “I just love her.” is all she can manage to say. Gave me tears.
