The arrival of a guide dog in the life of little girl was a huge trigger.
The appearance of a guide dog named Diamond was an important event in the life of little Ella. In just a few days, the last one, suffering from a form of autism, came out of his bubble thanks to a dog.
10-year-old Ella suffers from autism spectrum disorder and low vision. Because of this, she was isolated from a young age and had very little contact with her surroundings.
Today, the situation is completely different thanks to Diamond, a female Labrador Retriever, who has become her best friend, confidant and source of comfort, according to the Daily Star.
The child’s mother, Nicola Moss, couldn’t handle it. She didn’t expect the dog to have such an impact on her daughter. The family, who lives in Belper in the English county of Derbyshire, tried different methods for 6 long years, but to no avail. Until acceptance of diamonds in August 2020.
The idea came to them when Ella met another guide dog when she was 4 years old.
It was a turning point. although he had hardly spoken before, she spoke her first words to the animal.
A week after Diamond appeared, Ella became much calmer. Gradually, she was able to free herself from the anxiety and isolation that marked her childhood.
For the mother of the family, this ability of the dog to feel the emotional state of Ella is very important. So much so that it is difficult for her to imagine life without a dog. She even calls the process a “miracle”.
