Diabetic Alert Dogs of America provides world-class service dogs specifically trained to alert diabetic handlers to low or high blood sugar events. Dogs begin their intensive training program at a minimum of four months old, with the average timeframe for home placement being approximately six months, as each dog progresses at its own pace.
The training process involves collecting the client’s specific high and low blood sugar samples, which are then used to train their assigned dog. Upon completion of the program, a Certified Service Dog Trainer personally delivers the new Diabetic Alert Dog to the client’s home. This delivery includes a minimum of two days of in-home placement and transitional training to ensure a smooth adjustment for both the client and the dog. The trainer remains with the client until they are comfortable and ready to begin life with their new service dog. The program is all-inclusive, covering necessary equipment and providing lifetime client support.
