    Default Merlin the Magician

    This is our 2 year old Lab Merlin, doing his job with the eldest, he's an assistance dog whom we trained to detect Hypoglycemia.
    Well we can't really take any credit for his 6th sense, he's a natural hence his name Merlin(magician)

    Sorry TL, I was rather vague, Hypoglycemia is low blood glucose levels, as opposed to a diabetics hyperglycemia, (high BGL).

    Merlin is registered with Paws for diabetics, although our girls aren't diabetic, quite the opposite. They suffer Glycogen Storage disease type 3a, (http://www.agsdus.org/typeIII.htm) for a better explanation that I can give.
    Paws for diabetics were the only organization to come forward to help us, and recognise GSD as a disease, and for that we are very grateful.


    Sorry will post a bit more soon, Have docs app. I clear forgot!

    Back again, Thanks Bob someone played with the camera settings(maybe me?)
    anyhow the mutt, He's one in a million (too us anyhow), who know how many dogs we could have had before we got the right one?

    He was first cab off the rank, and has his own story,

    TL unfortunately they still have plenty of blood tests. It bothers me more than them.
