Therapy dog surviving cancer

Maggie, the golden retriever who visits sick children to cheer them up, has been back at work with no sign of her own cancer for six months now.

According to her owner, Michael Kewley, the founder of Shrewsbury Paws for Patients, Maggie has been thriving on natural supplements after being forced to stop chemotherapy last year because she was too weak.

There is still no sign of the golf-ball sized tumor that was on her snout, said Kewley, who didn't expect the 10-year-old dog to survive the holidays. "She's definitely an angel with four legs," he said.
