Four Paws for Caroline

Amazingly enough, service dogs can be trained to detect blood sugar levels in individuals with diabetes, and alert them when their sugar is outside of a healthy range. 4 Paws for Ability is an organization that provides service dogs to children with various types of disabilities and medical conditions, and they will raise and train a diabetes alert dog to support Caroline.

Here is an excerpt from Caroline's application letter: "I've had type 1 diabetes for over three years now, but I'm still scared of sleeping and going really low at night. Sadly, I can't tell when I have high blood sugar, and sometimes I don't wake up in the middle of the night when my level is really high. I think it would be good for me to have a diabetic alert dog because it would give me independence, responsibility, and peace of mind. I think it will also help me keep my blood sugar at a stable level."

Please join us in raising money to support 4 Paws For Ability, Inc. We look forward to having a loving, committedcompanion to help Caroline and keep her safe, but before we can start training with a dog we must raise $15,000 --not even the entire amount it coststhe agency to raise and train one of these special canines. If you can help us, please purchase a tshirt on this site or makea tax-deductible donation.
