When Hazel Smith decided to bring a friendly special needs Chihuahua into her home, she never imagined how he would change her life.

A retired police officer, Hazel suffered from agoraphobia where even going outside to cut her grass was challenging. She was on several medications to help manage the symptoms of agoraphobia and anxiety. She was a prisoner in her own home.
