But this small defect didn't prevent Debra Garrett from falling for the pup. She had been looking for a pet for her 82-year-old mother who suffers from Alzheimer's. She explained:
My mom [...] really wanted a dog. We did not want her to have a dog that was likely to outlive her or that would require a lot of training and energy. Muttville provided us with the perfect solution for my aging parent, an older dog that was tried and true.

Debra said:
It's magical to watch a true dental-phobic patient melt while holding Karma in one of our chairs. Even patients who didn't think it would help much found that their appointment went much better with Karma on their lap.
