Boy allergic to peanuts has dog to sniff out danger

Peanut-sniffing dog

Billy Gensel counts on service dog Remy to detect any trace of peanuts, to which he's acutely allergic. His mom Karen guides the dog, which sits to indicate possible danger. Wiping down the piano bench with alcohol eliminates the threat so Billy can play with the Patel Conservatory Jazz Ensemble. (SHNS photo by Daniel Wallace / St. Petersburg Times)
