Woman quits job to help her terminally ill dog complete her bucket list

A woman has quit her job so she can spend time helping her terminally ill dog complete a bucket list. Megan Marshall, 31, wants to dedicate herself to her precious pet Sasha and make her final days as special as possible.

She has spent the past 15 years with the Labrador cross after welcoming the dog into her life when she was just a puppy. Sadly, Sasha, who is now almost 16 years old, has been diagnosed with dementia as well as numerous health problems that will leave the dog unable to walk and eventually completely paralysed.
