Si Hero ay isang “trained diabetic service dog”. Talagang pinahanga nito ang publiko nang nagawa niyang mailigtas ang isang batang limang taong gulang kahit 5 milya pa ang layo nilang dalawa sa isa’t-isa.

Ang kaniyang iniligtas na bata ay walang iba kundi si Sadie Brooks na mayroong Down syndrome at Type 1 diabetes. Dahil sa mahirap na kalagayang ito ni Sadie, kinailangan niya ang tulong ni Hero upang agad na malaman ng kaniyang mga magulang kapag masyadong mababa o masyadong mataas ang asukal sa kaniyang katawan.
“I’ll hold out my hands and say, what is it? and he’ll paw for, paw my left hand for a low, and he’ll nose my right hand for a high,” Sadie’s mom Michelle told KUTV.“The lows are more dangerous immediately,” she explained. “[With] lows, she could go into a diabetic coma right away, and she could die, if we kept her low too long.”
Napakacute ng Labrador na ito at talagang kitang-kita ang pagiging malapit nila sa isa’t-isa. Palagi silang magkatabi kung matulog at palagi rin silang naglalarong dalawa. Napakasweet naman talaga ni Hero sa kaniyang amo na si Sadie.

Makalipas pa ang ilang taon ay halos hindi na mapaghiwalay pa ang dalawa. Palaging nakabantay kay Sadie si Hero sa lahat ng oras.
Isang araw nang nasa paaralan sa Deerfield Elementary School sa Cedar Hills si Hero ay dinig ang nakakatakot na balita.’
“He’s normally a very quiet dog. Whining is not in his protocol. But he just started whining and he would not stop,” Komento niya.’
“I can’t explain it. I think it’s like mother’s intuition. These dogs have abilities and senses beyond our understanding. I’ve always called Sadie our little angel, and I think Hero was a little angel sent into our lives to watch over her,” Komento naman ng tatay an Sadie.
What is diabetic alert dog training
Diabetic alert dogs are trained to monitor their owner, and detect blood sugar level changes before they can become dangerous. This detection allows the patient to take appropriate measures, such as using their blood glucose meter or injecting insulin.
Alert dogs will even monitor their owners while they are sleeping, and will wake them up if they sense anything amiss. That provides emotional security and confidence to those struggling with such a serious condition. These amazing dogs offer all the joys of canine companionship, and better diabetes management too. – Source
