After 2-year cancer battle, Fort Erie, Ont., man reunites with dog he never thought he’d see again [Video]

Fort Erie, Ont., resident Mike Nayler never thought he’d see his “four-legged daughter” Minnie again after surrendering her to a shelter two years ago. 

At the time, Nayler was diagnosed with terminal cancer and “gave up” on life, he told CBC Hamilton. 

Last week, however, he and the mastiff mix reunited — with a tackle and many licks to his face.

Minnie might not know it, but Nayler credits her with saving his life.

“She helped me through every single hardship in my life,” Nayler said.
