Mimi

OTTAWA, ONTARIO

MIMI, a one-year-old Collie/Shepherd, sensed that something was wrong when her owner, Aline Gagnon, was breathing irregularly during her sleep. Reacting to Mimi’s nervous behaviour, André Gagnon discovered that his wife was in cardiac arrest. André, a professionally trained ambulance attendant, performed C.P.R. and within seconds his wife’s heart had started beating again.
