Diabetic Alert Service Dog in Knoxville, TN

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 service dog in Knoxville, TN, 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.

    Parker is reliable, consistent, extremely competent, and professional. He mixes all of these traits with a level of empathy and caring that makes him very effective. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my thumbless child. It’s just too bad y’all don’t have a ten-star rating, because I would give him 11.

    Bolt has been through tough times recently! His trainer Reina is amazing! A couple months down the road, and Bolt is doing amazingly compared to how he was with his reactivity! I am very satisfied with the progress, and how it is obvious progress! He now can calm himself down when people come to our house, and his place command helps him tremendously with his anxiety. Reina and I finished at the dog park today! I never would’ve expected being able to take my boy there. He used to pull and bark towards everything, but today, Reina showed me exactly what I should do if Bolt focuses on dogs, and how to calm his inner crazy! I’ve personally been afraid to bring Bolt to the dog park, but Reina showed me Bolt CAN do it! I am scared but excited for his Mall trip in a couple weeks! I am ready to show everyone the growth my dog has experienced. Also, Bolt absolutely loves Reina! He gets excited when she is around, and loves her positive vibes! I am very happy I decided to go with Dog Training Elite! I highly recommend if you have a reactive dog(human, dog, children, etc)!!! Thank you for everything you’ve done to help Bolt work through his emotions!

    Dog Training Elite has been great to work with. They have taught me to have a better relationship with my rescue dog. My dog Wyatt was traumatized and abused. Dog training elite helped him gain confidence, and start to trust people again. He has gone from being reactive on the leash to walking nicely in my neighborhood. Best investment ever!

    Carol is a phenomenal trainer! Her expertise and professionalism stand out, and she clearly has a natural ability to connect with dogs. She is also able to teach me as an owner practical and effective techniques for training and help me understand the bc “WHY” behind it. My dog Knox’s behavior, recall, and obedience has drastically improved since working with her…and in just a short amount of time! I highly recommend Carol and Dog Training Elite in Knoxville for anyone looking for a skilled, convenient and passionate dog trainer!

    I loved my experience with Dog Training Elite. Parker has helped my standard poodle Kaiser blossom into quite the gentlemen. He used to jump on people and pull on the leash but now he is a model citizen. Thank you Parker and DTE
