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 Essex County, 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.

    Today was an initial meeting with Marcus an evaluator with Dog Training Elite. A gentleman and well versed in dog training for sure. Throughout Marcus’s visit he listened to our needs for our dog. His presentation of how Elite training works touched upon all the areas I want my 13 month old puppy to be trained in to become a well behaved dog in days to come. Thank you

    My training session with Patrick was the best yet. He is patient, calm, explaining everything carefully and why. We reviewed PLACE and BREAK. Marvin did great and was happy to do well and be a good boy! Cannot say enough good.

    We absolutley love Marcus & DogTrainingElite! We started our rescue pup, Maple, with them in 2023, and when I tell you it changed our lives, I'm not kidding. My husband and I have experience with dogs, but we've never had a high-energy herding dog until we rescued Maple. We thought we could train her ourselves without any help, but we quickly discovered we needed help! Marcus and everyone we've met through DogTrainingElite KNOWS their stuff! Maple has come SO far and yes we're still working on her reactivity on walks- but Marcus and the team have given us the tools for sucess. They are so accomodating and flexible, working with our schedule and traveling to our house for in-home training. We try to attend group classes whenever they pop up around Boston, too. These classes are amazing- such a great way to practice Maple's skills in a high-stimulus environment but in a controlled manner. 100% recommend them

    We just started working with Dog Training Elite of Central Massachusetts and we are already noticing a huge difference in our 6 month old pit bull puppy! We know if we continue to do classes and the homework we are going to have a very well behaved dog on our hands in no time! I would highly recommend them to anyone!
