A unique type of extraordinary dogs that display unwavering loyalty towards their human companions are teddy bears. Among these canines, Gertrude, a Great Dane, has gained widespread recognition across the nation due to her gentle demeanor and deep affection for her owner, Bella.
At the age of eleven, Bella encountered Gerard for the first time. She had already been diagnosed with Merquis Syndrome, a condition that affected her mobility. Bella’s mother, who was involved as a volunteer for the project provider, witnessed their meeting and instantly felt a deep connection. Taking on the role of Bella’s caregiver, Gilbert provided her with daily support and helped her with putting on her coat.
Bella emphasizes the significance of George in her life, highlighting that whenever she requires assistance, he is always there for her. The bond between them is clearly demonstrated through George’s actions, as he seems to rely on Bella as much as she relies on him.
BarkPᴏst, a well-known website dedicated to dogs, honored George for his exceptional service by presenting him with their “Dog’s Best Day” award, designed to offer a day filled with fun for deserving dogs. Videos featuring George and his fashionable companions have since gone viral.
According to Bella’s mother, George has accompanied Bella throughout her weekly enzyme replacement therapy at Boston Children’s Hospital, as well as during her two recent hospital stays. George’s presence has provided Bella with increased confidence, allowing her to feel like a typical child despite her condition.
On October 14th, Bella is scheduled to undergo reconstructive surgery on her right foot, and George will accompany her. He has provided Bella not only comfort and assistance but also a sense of belonging and confidence.
