I am hoping to train a dog over the course of the next few years to be a diabetic alert dog- sensing low and high blood sugars.

What breed of dog would work best for this? I am hoping to be able to rescue one, not buy.

Thanks!

How do you train a dog to not be jealous of other dogs around her owner?

My golden retreiver will not allow other dogs to come near me (except my other golden) in the dog park and outside. I can not even go up to them anymore! I try time outs, but it is very hard to get her attention and the other dogs’ owners freak out thinking that she will hurt their dog. She plays fine (submissively) with any dog as long as they don’t get close to me. Any ideas?
