Hypo Sniffers: How Diabetes Service Dogs Change Lives
Dogs can be trained to detect low blood sugar in their type 1 diabetic best friend. For people without hypo awareness, this can be life saving - especially when tech fails or isn't available. And who wouldn't want a furry friend looking out for them when their glucose crashes?
In this episode, we talk to Lucy Breytenbach from Honey's Garden - a non-profit that trains medical alert dogs - to find out how it works and what it takes to turn your pup into a furry CGM.
