I have decided that I am going to train Dulce to be a diabetes alert dog.<\/p>\n
I am a former drug dog handler and trainer. I had completely dismissed the idea for years because the people who were doing it were completely had no scruples. In fact, the Texas Attorney General was after too \u2013 and the man is in a wheel chair, so for god sakes, he has to be looking out for the medically disadvantaged, right? <\/p>\n
In fact, I had stopped watching DLife, because they were giving one of those groups free advertising.<\/p>\n
Anyway, it seems that we actually do excrete something that dogs actually can detect when we go low and when we go high. Or last least those of us who don\u2019t produce insulin and I think I live in that boat.<\/p>\n
There are a lot of logistics that need to be worked out. Where does she ride in the car, as I am absolutely against having any dog loose in the car, and how does she alert when we are in the car.<\/p>\n
I\u2019m in a plane right now, and where does she ride in the plane, there is no freaking room for her here. Not that I fly often.<\/p>\n
The rest of its easy. I just have to go high a few times (not hard \u2013 and capture that \u2013 and go low a few time (harder, scares me to freaking death, who wants to help with that party?), and train her.<\/p>\n
Peace of cake.<\/p>\n
Besides, the child desperately needs a job.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
