A Wyoming woman who suffered a massive heart attack while in bed said she would not have survived if it weren't for her toy poodle coming to her rescue.
Susan Denker from Cheyenne was found unconscious at her home in July by a friend who could tell something was wrong when her seven-pound poodle began acting strange, according to the Cowboy State Daily.
Karen, a friend of Susanne's, rang the doorbell several times and was about to leave when she saw the poodle, Lily, barking and running to the bedroom.
The dog was trying to tell her something, and Karen listened.
'If it hadn't been for Lily alerting Karen, and Karen being wise enough to listen to a dog, I would not be talking to you now, because they did pronounce me dead at one point,' said Denker to the outlet.
Karen had walked around to the back and found Denker unconscious. She called the authorities, who knocked down the front door and brought her to the hospital.
After two months, the pair was reunited at a groomer where Lily was being boarded.
Denker described the emotional reunion to the outlet: 'They took her out of the crate, and she saw me and just went hysterical. They put her up on the counter. She wrapped her legs around my neck. She tried to crawl inside my shirt.
'She licked absolutely every centimeter of my face, my lips, nose, eyes, she gave me a full wash. I was holding on to her as tight as I could, and she was holding on to me, too.'
The pair is inseparable. Denker described that Lily comes with her to appointments, sleeps with her, and has an intimate kind of connection.
Denker lives alone with Lily after her family moved across the globe.

The headline is so poorly written that I thought the Poodle had a heart attack.
Sweet girl!!
It was an American Bull dog who saved my hide early this November when I had a heart attack and respiratory failure , early this November. So, I get it wifh the bond of an animal who saves humans. And he’s not even my dog, but we’ve been good friends. Now, we have a level of deepness.
Poodles 🐩🐩🐩 tend to be smart dogs
My Mom owned 4 different ones that were pretty sharp
Right!
Sorry to hear that, prayers up.
Good Girl, Lily!
My Grandma had two white Standard Poodles during her lifetime and both of them were smart as a whip. Peggy and GiGi. My Aunt was a hairdresser and you never knew how those dogs were going to be ‘styled’ or what COLOR they would be when we saw them.
Most of the time they looked like pink Cotton Candy. :)
If this is in Cheyenne, she didn't say centimeter
It does read exactly that way. now that you mention it.
Quite the multi tasker. that Lily!
Otherwise, though, it is what most would call a heartwarming story. Some “Rescue” Dogs deserve that title.
Meanwhile, Puffball, the Siamese Cat, watched the entire heart attack episode take place, and never moved from her pillow on the nightstand. ///
All while having a heart attack. Impressive. Reminds me of an example of a Cajun farmer (while attending a Freshman English class in college): The Cajun Farmer said that he would throw some cows over da fence some hay.
