Dog Helps Sister Overcome Anxiety In Car

Eddy is a very special dog. He’s a black lab who is dedicated to helping his family and making others around him happy. He was rescued from a shelter roughly two years ago and became a brother to an older sister, Daisy.

The two share a strong bond, much like real brothers and sisters. They eat together, play together, and sleep together. This 95 lb dog is extremely observant and can tell when something isn’t right. One way he uses this skill is to helo his sister overcome her anxiety during car rides.

Daisy gets anxious when it’s time to go in the car. She feels car sick and begins to drool, then vomit. Eddy has figured out a great way to help. So, he lays opposite her and rests his head on top of hers. This prevents her from getting up and sitting down repeatedly which makes her even sicker.

When he does this, she doesn’t puke, and she’s able to fall right asleep. He always watches his mom to make sure she’s fine too. If she’s not, he’s the first to notice.

That’s how the family found out she was pregnant. Eddy would place his head on her tummy and that was the real sign for them. He has even woken her up from going hypoglycemic despite never being trained for that purpose. Perhaps he was a doctor in a past life. Whatever the case may be, Eddy is an invaluable member of the family, and looks out for everyone!
