Meet Sarah Davies, a real-life survivor with an extraordinary story to share, thanks to Bonnie, her loyal furry friend. At 30, Sarah experienced a terrifying cardiac arrest at home in Caernarfon. But it wasn’t a human who first noticed; it was Bonnie, her rescue dog. With unusual whimpering, Bonnie woke up Sarah’s husband, Aled. Curious about Bonnie’s behaviour, Aled checked on Sarah, only to find her not breathing and her lips turning blue. 🚨

Quick-thinking Aled dialled 999 and began CPR immediately. It was Bonnie’s keen instincts that set the rescue mission in motion, saving Sarah’s life. After time in an induced coma and with a new implantable cardioverter defibrillator, Sarah made a miraculous recovery.

To honour Bonnie, Sarah got a paw print tattoo and has expressed her wish to be buried with Bonnie’s ashes someday. Sadly, Bonnie passed away at 17, but her life-saving legacy lives on. 🐕💖

Sarah, born with a congenital heart defect, has faced numerous health challenges. Yet, she’s turned her experience into advocacy, speaking about heart health and urging others to be aware of cardiovascular issues. “My family is everything,” says Sarah, appreciating every moment since Bonnie’s life-saving alert.

She continues to cherish life with her family, including two new dogs, but Bonnie will forever be the hero of the story. 🌟🐶

The British Heart Foundation recently celebrated Sarah’s amazing journey with a red bench dedicated to her resilience and Bonnie’s unforgettable act. Let this incredible story of a faithful canine companion and a family’s love inspire us all! ❤️
