The Scent of Safety You can harness dogs' amazing sense of smell to
manage your diabetes. Many dogs can perform this life-saving task,
but they must be trained if you are to produce a reliable diabetic
alert service dog (DAD). The authors bring to this book extensive
experience in training for diabetic alert and assistance dog work
in particular, and over half a century of training dogs for search
& rescue, obedience, and therapy in general. They will guide
you through this process step by step. This book helps diabetics
train their own dog with the help of a professional trainer, and
explains how to: o Select a great dog for alert work o Find and
work with a qualified trainer o Understand how dogs detect changes
in diabetic blood sugar levels o Train alerts and low/high blood
sugar signals o Teach your dog to alert at night and in the car o
Train other helpful skills such as Go for Help, trailing the
diabetic, and retrieving useful items (glucometer, juice box, etc.)
o Troubleshoot training difficulties o Locate additional resources
on training and assistance dogs And when you are done, you will
experience the freedom that comes from knowing a canine friend is
looking out for you.
