Myers rescued his 6-year-old German shepherd called Sadie after she was surrendered at Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge in New Jersey. The sanctuary team located it tough to place Sadie since she was nervous around men and defensive.

” [She was] a little standoffish when she first came and she had not been sure what was going on,” Heather Centrella, the front office manager at Ramapo-Bergen Animal Refuge, informed The Dodo. “She came to be a little bit shut-down in the shelter, so we knew she was going to need an experienced house with somebody who was patient.”

It took only thirty minutes for Myers to decide that he wanted to bring Sadie home after they met.

The problems she was supposed to have had with men seemed to melt away.

” She jumped into my car and we’ve developed a strong bond. I had the ability to work through the issues she had and committed to providing her the home and love she was worthy of,” Myers claimed in a Facebook post.

” She maintained licking me and crying, so I reached my right hand up to pet her, then I grabbed her collar,” Myers told The Washington Post.

Myers had no idea that Sadie would be responsible for saving him a few months later.

The pair were enjoying a normal evening at home when Myers suddenly had a stroke. He had no feeling in his left side and really feel in between his bed and the wall surface.

” It was truly frightening– I couldn’t get up and I didn’t realize at that moment that I would certainly had a stroke,” Myers said. “My mobile phone got on the dresser about 15 feet away, however there was no chance I could get to it.”

Sadie sprung into activity and licked her dad’s face to try and revive him.

The dog refused to leave his side.

She kept barking for aid in hopes the neighbors would hear her. Myers reached out to get her collar and was pretty amazed by what happened next.

Sadie after that used all of her toughness to drag her dad across the room so he would certainly be closer to his phone.

” She was not educated as a service canine, but she was in distress over what was happening and she could tell that I remained in problem,” he claimed. “I do not recognize how she did it, but she knew.”

Myers had the ability to reach his phone and call for help. Doctors at the hospital told Myers that Sadie was likely responsible for saving his life.

Sadie stayed with Myer’s family while her dad spent time at the medical facility and after that in rehab.

” They do FaceTime, which he claimed she’s a little confused by because she intends to get at her father and she cries,” Centrella said. “But he reassures her that he’s doing everything he can to get house to her as soon as possible so they can be reunited.”

When that day finally arrived, it was an exceedingly happy one.

Myers shed tears as Sadie leaped into his arms and covered his face with kisses.

” It was the best choice I would certainly ever before made to adopt her,” claimed Myers. “I truly feel it was meant to be.”
