Doesn't Dr. Jennifer Cattet with Smart Animal Training Systems run a Diabetic alert dog program? You might want to check as I'm fairly certain she does.

Not all diabetic alert dog programs are created equal. Some are charging huge amounts of money for "scent imprinted" puppies that are no where near ready to be service dogs.

What kind of dog do you have? Countywide Dog Training Club in Santa Rosa has group classes for competitive obedience from beginner to advanced and the CGC, and some of their trainers do individual sessions.
I need a recommendation for a dog trainer in the Santa Rosa area. Any advise would be helpful. There are so many different types of training, I am confused.
