Success Stories
"Libby makes things easy to understand and FUN! She is a joy to watch and she is so encouraging." "Before I found M.D. Dogs, I was lost. My dog was alerting ok, but was struggling in public and was lacking confidence in herself and in her alerting. After I read the M.D. Dogs workbook and watched the videos it was a life changer for me and my dog. Watching Libby train Franklyn on Instagram made me see was real Diabetic Alert Dog training looked like. My faith in having a solid working Diabetic Alert Dog was restored. A long while later and now my dog not only rocks movement alerts, but is also trained to low blood sugar alerts with a bringsel (which is something I had never thought of using for an alert!) and is a dog that I trust to alert me in just about every situation. I've gotten so many compliments on her behavior when I'm in public, and at many JDRF events she's always the most well behaved Diabetic Alert Dog there. she's such a happier dog now and I'm a safer diabetic because of M.D. Dogs. Thank you Libby and M.D. Dogs!" |
"Libby is very knowledgeable and professional as well as an excellent trainer. After attending her MD Dogs Diabetic Alert Dog seminar I am excited to be able to help other owner/trainers who need support while training their DAD." "I had researched scent training methods for over a year, before my pup came into my life. I felt discouraged at first and I honestly thought that I couldn't train my own diabetic alert dog, until I found M.D. Dogs! Libby's workbook is user-friendly and she's always so nice and helpful if you need further assistance. Thanks to M.D. Dogs, my DAD Tógó, is often alerting 15-30 min. before I'm low, giving me more time to treat. My endocrinologist is seeing major improvements since Tógó started alerting with more accuracy and the times I have needed Glucagon, has greatly diminished! M.D. dogs has definitely changed our lives and gave me the confidence to train Tógó! I'm incredibly grateful to Libby and her training methods" |
