An actress fought back tears as she told ITV viewers of the moment her dog saved her life.
Speaking on Lorraine on Wednesday morning, ex-Emmerdale star Malandra Burrows told host Lorraine Kelly that her one-year-old border terrier Teddy helped to get her breast cancer diagnosis. One night, Teddy and Malandra were curled up on the sofa when the pup wouldn't settle.
The 56-year-old said "it was so bizarre" as Teddy lay on her chest which hadn't happened before and was "nuzzling and cuddling". Getting emotional, Malandra said Teddy "swiped me so hard with her head it really, really hurt".
