A woman has said she "wouldn't be alive today" if it wasn't for her dog, who was a priceless source of comfort when her partner suddenly passed away from a rare cancer aged just 26.
Amanda Collins, 36, based in Essex, describes her Afghan hound D'hari as a "little lifesaver" and says she gave her a "purpose" and reason to get up every day.
Amanda's partner, Jamie O'hara, was diagnosed with clear cell sarcoma in June 2016 and tragically died just seven months later.
