00:03 My dad spends four hours a day giving Dolly her massages.
00:07 Who's that, Dolly?
00:08 Is that Dolly girl?
00:10 My dad is a complete pushover when it comes to Dolly.
00:13 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:18 Dolly.
00:19 Dolly is equally obsessed with my dad.
00:22 Dolly baby.
00:24 Oh.
00:25 My dad cannot sit peacefully in a chair with Dolly around.
00:29 And he's such a softie, he always gives in to her.
00:32 Hey, hey.
00:34 Later, OK?
00:35 Later.
00:36 Oh, OK.
00:37 I'm sitting here.
00:38 [GRUNTS]
00:40 OK.
00:41 [LAUGHS]
00:43 She follows him everywhere.
00:45 [MUSIC PLAYING]
00:47 Waits for him by the door if he goes out.
00:50 Dolly.
00:52 She's obsessed.
00:54 I call Dolly a diva because she is a diva.
00:59 She struts around.
01:01 [LAUGHS]
01:03 Dolly, come on.
01:05 She only likes to do what she wants to do.
01:08 Let's go.
01:10 My dad will never say no to her.
01:13 Dolly.
01:14 If we go on a walk, she often decides
01:16 she doesn't want to walk anymore.
01:17 And she just lies down.
01:19 And so my dad goes and picks her up
01:23 and then carries her for the rest of the walk.
01:27 But I think he really likes it, actually.
01:30 She's a little bit tired, I think.
01:31 It gives him the opportunity to carry her,
01:34 which he likes to do.
01:36 He likes to be her man's servant.
01:40 I'm looking for a little girl.
01:41 He lets her sleep on his bed.
01:43 And he's never done that with any dog we've ever had.
01:46 There she is.
01:47 And whenever we go out for dinner,
01:49 dad has to share what he has with her.
01:52 Baby, let me get around here where you can get out.
01:57 My dad got a diagnosis of mild Alzheimer's.
02:00 And so I think she really helps with that.
02:03 How long has this massage been going on for?
02:05 Oh, it's been years.
02:07 She gives us quite a lot of comfort
02:09 and keeps his brain active and entertained.
02:13 Just let him, please.
02:14 Oh, how sweet.
02:15 I don't think he would be doing as well as he is today
02:18 were it not for her.
02:19 They seem sort of made for each other.
02:22 She goes with him everywhere he goes.
02:26 My dad takes her to the hairdresser with him.
02:29 We take her out to restaurants.
02:33 We take her on holiday.
02:34 He's like a kid without his security blanket.
02:40 If she's not there, he doesn't like it.
02:42 Dolly has definitely enhanced my father's life.
02:46 Looks very sleepy.
02:48 I asked him, what does having Dolly kind of mean to you?
02:51 And remember, he just said, oh, it's
02:53 so nice to have someone that relies on me for a cuddle.
