Sergeant: Hi, my name is Sergeant, and have I got a story to tell you! Grab a cup of whatever you enjoy and get cozy on the couch, because you’re going to love this one. [Smiles big.]

As you can see, I am a handsome, majestic four-year-old husky. I chose to live with and help a lady with disabilities and many challenges. For four years, I was my caregiver’s friend, mentor, and companion, but there comes a time in every being’s life — including beings in the animal kingdom — when a mission here on Earth Mother is complete. Animal companions like me can be guided and assisted to move on to the next person who needs our physical, behavioral, and emotional support. Much like our human counterparts and friends, we choose to experience different situations that we put in place for ourselves.
