My brother's Diabetic Alert Dog (DAD) arrived one week ago today! Brad, Tiff and Kai have undergone nearly a week of training. The trainers actually came to St. Louis for nearly a week to deliver Kai and help Brad and Tiff learn what to do the next few months to continue his training. It takes 2 full years to complete his training, and trainers visit every 3 months. This is a top notch organization - so thorough and dedicated to the success of their dogs! It's been so wonderful to hear the excitement and hope in both Brad and Tiffany. We are amazed at what Kai is doing already and cannot wait to meet him! We will see him this weekend for "Cocktails for Kai," a fundraiser they are putting on! (If you are interested in supporting them, you can find info on their blog!) Kai has already alerted several times each day! It's incredible! Finally, some help with this chronic and sometimes hopeless disease.
Here are some adorable pictures Tiffany's been sending.... I also stole some from their blog - they are just too cute!
Another family near St. Louis was getting a dog as well.
What a beautiful dog!
I love the smile on Brad's face! Really just brings tears to my eyes!
