A dog of the Punjab police's canine squad who was suffering from cancer has returned to duty after recovering. The police said the Labrador assists in anti-sabotage checking and has helped them during operations, reported news agency ANI.
In a video shared by ANI on Twitter, the dog, Simmy, is seen getting out of a vehicle and walking around as police personnel holds her leash.
According to Harjit Singh, Superintendent of Police, Faridkot, Simmy had been battling cancer for a long time but has now joined back duty after her health improved. He said the dog had once helped the police seize intoxicating substances from a foreigner.
The post drew several reactions on the platform where users expressed joy over Simmy beating cancer and returning to work.
“Welcome back Simmy,” a user wrote.
Another person said, “So happy to see this”.
This person called the Labrador a “hero” for beating cancer.
“Beating cancer Back to work. What a brave girl she is & hats off to Punjab police canine squad for the care towards her,” a comment read.
“Wow, Simmy the Labrador is one brave doggo! Beating cancer and returning to work for the Punjab Police Canine squad? That's pawsitively impressive. I hope they gave her some treats as a reward,” a user wrote.
“God bless Simmy,” another person commented.
“Now that's some good news,” one user said.
While Simmy won her battle against cancer, a 12-year-old Border Collie named Ella wasn't that lucky. The dog suffered from oral cancer and her parents decided to put her down to end her suffering. But before that, Sarah Keith, who had spent over a decade with her dog, took Ella on her last walk on Fraisthrope beach, in East Yorkshire, Edinburgh while inviting people on social media to join them. “The post just got shared and shared. And I had people from all parts of the country who never were going to be able to make the walk sending me messages,” said Sarah.
