Humans and canines have an undeniable bond and more and more hospices providing palliative care utilizing therapy dogs to provide service as part of end-of-life care. Travelling the halls through Hospice Simcoe, therapy dog Daisy can be found visiting with patients and family. Her visits can evoke positive memories for patients of their own lives and her calming nature helps ease anxiety and fear. Daisy also provides support for families who are visiting their loved ones during their last days.

This inspiring documentary series shines a light on the evolution of death and dying, and the relationship between caregivers and terminal patients. It challenges ideas about end-of-life care and provides new ways to improve the quality of care.
