My names Jacey and I am head of Marketing at Moneysworth. I love cocktails and hate butternut squash!
I was watching Day Break yesterday when i came across this amazing story. http://www.itv.com/daybreak/lifestyle/petsandanimals/meetlifesavingshirleythelabrador
It was an article about Shirley, the life saving Labrador! Her owner, 6 year old Rebecca suffers from Diabetes, and can go into a diabetic coma at any point of the day. Shirley, a hypo-alert dog, has been trained to smell when Rebeccas blood sugar reaches dangerously low levels and can alert those around her by licking their hands when Rebecca needs to raise her blood sugar, and therefore prevents her from slipping into a diabetic coma - how amazing!? Shirley accompanies Rebecca to school and even watches over her when she sleeps, what a hero! What marvellous things we can train such intelligent dogs to do. This kind of thing will prevent people from fatal occurrences and I look forward to hearing more success stories like this soon!
