Chloe Belloti, 29, from Suffolk has spinal muscular atrophy which means she can only move about on an electric wheelchair and requires constant care.

But thanks to Morris, a five-year-old black Labrador, Chloe got a semblance of ‘normality and independence’ for the first time in her life.

Chloe said: “Every day I am left in awe of what Morris does every single day, without him I wouldn’t even be able to get dressed.

“I had always dreamed of being able to do the things I used to do before life became such a struggle but never in a million years did, I anticipate that it could actually happen; then came Morris.

“It’s the little things I notice most, like being able to open and close doors through Morris rather than asking for the assistance of others, or how he patiently picks up an item that I’ve dropped five times already because my hands are not working well that day.

“I used to be stuck to my carer but now with Morris and I can go off and my carer will be there as a safety precaution.

“Morris also bridges the gap with strangers and removes the stigma attached to my disability.

“Instead of being someone that is ‘pitied’, I now have a bond with Morris that people envy.

“Morris has even given me the confidence to overcome my fear of public speaking and we have now given numerous talks about Canine Partners and have organized many fundraising events.

“With Morris, absolutely anything is possible.

“Not only will he look after me physically by moving me in my wheelchair and helping with household tasks but he also reminds me every day that life is beautiful.

“I truly owe my life to this beautiful creature, he’s introduced me to the independence that I never thought was possible and love that I never expected.”

Chloe got paired with Morris in 2015 thanks to Canine Partners. To say that Morris has become an indispensable part of Chloe’s life is an understatement.

She adds: “I have a degenerative muscle-wasting condition that affects all aspects of my life and I need assistance for every single aspect of my care.

“As I approached my late teens, my condition was deteriorating a lot faster than I had expected and I needed multiple surgeries.

“I lost the use of my right side and had to have a feeding tube inserted as my swallowing muscles had deteriorated to a point where I could no longer swallow or chew my food.

“Despite the tough times, I lead a relatively normal life with a crazy sense of humor, yet the pressure of maintaining normality was simply overwhelming.

“Before Morris, I felt like my life had just paused and I had no idea how to make it start again.

“He has completely changed my life for the better as I’m now able to get on with day to day duties without relying on my carers.

“It feels like we are one person as he can pick things up for me, help me with my food shopping, getting items off the shelves and putting them in the basket along with paying at the till.

“To Morris, helping me is fun and exciting – every task turns into a game for him, which makes me feel much less of a burden.

“He has given me my independence and confidence to do things I never would have before such as public speaking or a weekend away.”
