Yesterday we met a puppy who, at just ten weeks old, is already carrying a responsibility far bigger than she is.
Her name is Sapphire.
A small German shepherd… with a job that she is working towards.
Sapphire job role is quieter. Softer. But in many ways, far heavier.
She’s training with her handler to become an assistance dog — with a hope to something very exciting and bigger in the future.
That’s Sapphire’s purpose.
Not to chase danger, but to heal from it.
And she hasn’t been bred for the job or shaped into it — she’s simply the right soul, in the right place, at the right time. A tiny dog chosen for her kindness, her softness, and her ability to make the world feel a little less frightening.
We’re going to be cheering her on every step of the way.
💙 Wish Sapphire luck in the comments

Some heroes use their teeth.
Some heroes use their courage.
And some, like Sapphire, change the world simply by being there.
