The nicest time of the day for most dogs is when they get to chow down on a meal or play rough with their favorite toy. However, Daisy, a 2-year-old Rottweiler puppy, finds nothing more thrilling than snuggling up next to her human brother at night to put him to sleep.
Daisy’s mother, Brittany Troilo, told The Dodo, “She’s his shadow.” Every night, she shares his bed with him.
Since she first moved in with her family two years ago as a tiny puppy, Daisy has radiated love throughout the house. The young dog immediately fell in love with her brother when she arrived and hasn’t left his side since.
Troilo remarked, “She can’t get enough of him.
Daisy and her brother enjoy playing fetch and tug-of-war with their toys in the backyard during the day. Though the real pleasure starts at night.
Once 8:30 o’clock rolls along. Daisy goes to the stairs every night and waits for her brother’s bedtime routine to begin.
Troilo predicted that the woman would wait by the stairs. She will jump on the bed as soon as we start going upstairs and wait for her brother to finish brushing his teeth so she knows it’s hug time.
Daisy wraps her arm around her brother’s and slowly nods asleep once he is properly tucked into bed.
Every night when she goes to sleep, she holds him, Troilo added.
Daisy will usually spend the whole night cuddled up alongside her brother. But one night, Troilo woke up at 2 a.m. to see Daisy sitting alert next to her bed, and she knew something was wrong.
“My son has type 1 diabetes and Daisy could tell that he was having an emergency even though she’s not trained to do that,” Troilo said. “Now, if his sugar is high or low in the middle of the night, she comes and wakes me up so I can tend to him.”
Daisy is aware of her brother’s quiet emergencies in addition to the medical devices he wears, such as the Dexcom glucose monitor he wears at night.
Her sibling is protected in large part by the Dexcom, which tracks his blood sugar levels and notifies his parents if anything is awry. Even when they are sleeping, Daisy understands somehow not to touch her brother’s Dexcom.
Troilo remarked, “She’s extremely aware of what it is.” She won’t sleep on his belly if it’s on his stomach.
Daisy will also take care to avoid the gadget when she wraps her arm around her brother’s for a cuddle.She is really intelligent, Troilo added. She is a unique girl.
Recently, Daisy’s family welcomed another Rottweiler puppy into their home. Daisy is obsessed with playing with her new sister, Lilly, but not even the puppy can get in the way of Daisy’s bedtime routine.
“She knows even with the puppy that at 8:30, it’s time to start getting ready for bed,” Troilo said.
Daisy will stop whatever she’s doing to join her human brother for their evening snuggle session.
And the adorable puppy will wake up in the morning eager to embrace a new day while counting down the seconds until she may get in her brother’s bed and sleep with her arms around him once more.
