Before Phoebe came into Jazz Turner’s life she needed someone to be with her 24/7. But when the 25-year-old first met the Golden Retriever, the dog transformed her life. That’s because Jazz has a life-limiting progressive condition called hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, which causes her joints to dislocate. This is because her body can’t produce collagen. The condition also affects all her internal organs and many other of her bodily systems.
Phoebe, a rescue dog, is Jazz’s medical alert dog and mobility assistance dog. Not only does Phoebe alert Jazz to her fainting episodes and seizures, she helps her around the house.

Says Jazz, “She not only gave me back my life in the house but she gave me my life back on the water.”
It’s no wonder that Phoebe and Jazz are up for The Kennel Club Hero Dog Awards 2024!
