Diabetic Alert Service Dog in Boston, MA

Many individuals with type 1 diabetes spend their days constantly monitoring their blood sugar levels in order to prevent symptoms of hypoglycemia. If left untreated, low blood sugar levels can lead to seizures, blackouts, and even comas. There are early symptoms of hypoglycemia, such as sweating, shaking, or confusion, however, after a few years, a person with type 1 diabetes may lose their ability to feel these symptoms as they develop Hypoglycemia Unawareness.

Living a balanced life with Type 1 diabetes isn't always easy. With the support of a diabetic alert dog training in Boston, MA, that balance becomes a possibility. Your diabetic alert dog is a service dog you can take anywhere and who will aid you with alerting for stability, safety, and support.

    Jason from Elite dog training is absolutely amazing. We were seriously thinking of giving up on our rescue boy, as we did not know what else to do with him, but working with Jason for the last 3 years has been truly amazing. Would highly recommend if you feel that there is nothing else you can do.

    Jason and Syanne have been amazing and I couldn’t ask for a better experience. They are working with my family and I to train my puppy Finn to be a psychiatric service dog. I’ve been with them for about a year now. They both never fail to make me laugh and make training fun. As someone with a lot of anxiety, they do such a great job at making a fun and safe environment. Jason is always available to answer questions and always answers in such detail and I have learned so much from him. Jason is extremely knowledgeable and very kind. I’m so grateful my family and I chose this training with them and I would highly recommend them for any training with your dog! It’s always so fun to see everyone and their dogs at group class too!!

    10/10! Would recommend Jason to anyone who is looking for training. I also loved that he meets you where you are in your training, From novice to expert. Jason really cares about all of his doggy clients and their owners too! I don’t have enough good things to say, only than I had found him earlier on

    Jason is the best trainer we could have asked for. He helped us train our Golden Retriever Callum to become an excellent therapy dog for nursing homes. Jason is a 10/10 trainer, highly recommend!

    We hired Jason to help us train our yellow lab, Rory, to be a diabetic alert service dog for our 11-year-old son. Jason and his team have been incredible for this entire journey--which we are now more than a year into! Jason is always incredibly responsive, very easy to communicate with, an excellent teacher, and Rory loves him! He clearly enjoys his job, is very knowledgeable, and is great with children and dogs. Working with Elite Dog Training in New Hampshire, Jason gave us advice on which puppy to choose (taking into consideration gender and breed), and started scent training with us when Rory was 11 weeks old. Jason has focused on the scent training and service dog component of the training, while the New Hampshire chapter led the obedience and group training portions (since we live in New Hampshire). Jason provided great suggestions and one-on-one training sessions with my son and I. He helped us trouble shoot any issues and helped both son and Rory develop a great bond. He has trained us through scent training with tins in the open, to tins hidden on my son, to open air scenting with my son, to passing the public access test. He worked with us in our home, in a variety of public areas, and at the school. Jason has been invaluable in integrating Rory into the school system. He is a great presenter to the school administration and has been an invaluable resource for the school, addressing their administrative and logistical concerns. He has walked us all through how Rory and my son will thrive in the school environment. He has visited the school to meet with the school team and to walk my son through each of his classrooms to show him where to place Rory, how to place her in the room while he is working, how to navigate P.E., lunch, and recess, how to interact with the public (including other children) and has been very helpful in troubleshooting throughout it all. He was very well received by the teachers, administrators, school nurses, and the school community. My son loves him and describes him as “awesome!” and “the best!” Rory can’t stop wagging her tail whenever Jason is near, and always wants to play more with him. Jason answered every question we had, and was very patient with my son. Not only is my son diabetic, but he is also easily distracted (ADHD/ADD) and on the spectrum. Jason was able to explain things to my son in a way that he could understand. He has a great balance of humor and seriousness, which my son really responds to. We highly recommend Jason and his team!

    Jason is great! Very upbeat and knowledgeable, and it is obvious that he loves working with dogs. I've had the pleasure of working with him recently and would highly recommend him.
