When my wife fell ill, our loyal Labrador became her constant guardian, never leaving her side. Even after she recovered, his clinginess escalated. Concerned and puzzled, we sought answers, only to uncover a shocking revelation that shattered our marriage and changed our lives forever.I never thought I’d be sitting on my front porch, staring at a sunset while struggling to come to terms with the breakdown of my marriage. Life has a funny way of throwing curveballs, and today, I was squarely in the path of one such pitch.

It all started a few weeks back. Alicia, my wife, had always been the nurturing type. She had a knack for making our house feel like a home, filled with warmth and love. Then she was struck down by a nasty stomach bug. It came out of nowhere and knocked her off her feet, leaving her exhausted. Rocky, our three-year-old Labrador, became her shadow during those days. He refused to leave her side, even when I tried to coax him away with his favorite toy.
