She was quite surprised and upset since dogs were not permitted at the hospital where she was receiving treatment.
That’s when her niece was planned a clever and creative strategy.
Shelby brought the dog from her grandmother’s house and covered him in a blanket. The vehicle journey helped the dog calm down and sit calmly under the blanket after he first became extremely anxious. Shelby was skilled at calming the puppy because she is a veterinarian.
Shelby walked confidently into the hospital while carrying Patsy covered in a blanket. Instead of a concealed dog, everyone assumed there was a baby behind the blanket.
When her niece walked into the room, the grandmother was amazed. She didn’t even have a hint as to what may be there. But when Shelby took the blanket off, Grandma’s joy at seeing her lovely dog again left her speechless. It was all she needed.
