Six months ago I discovered that my little dog is tick. He has diabetes and it was really hard to assimilate. But some stuff that have helped me to understand and assimilate the situation and make it easier for me and for my dog is some devices like the little thingy that makes the dog tick. all the registers of her insulin measurements and it’s really useful because it can make me notice if my dog is feeling good or is feeling bad and what to do in that case so it was a little bit difficult to learn how to to use it because it’s not something normal or common or for regular use but I started watching YouTube videos to know how to interpret the results that the controller gives me. And it became easier by the time. So I started using it when my dog was like two months into the diagnosis because we didn’t know that it would be so good for him because we thought it hurt him but it wasn’t like that. We tried other manners to know how the insulin measurements were but right now this device is really useful to save my little dog’s life. So I’m really grateful about it and I think that it would be a great tool for everyone that has diabetes. It also includes not only pets but humans like little kids or grown-ups. It’s really useful and even though it’s not that easy to use it becomes easier with some practice and time.

Six months ago, I discovered that my little dog is diabetic. He has diabetes, and it was really hard to assimilate. But some things that have helped me understand and manage the situation for both me and my dog are devices like the little gadget that monitors the dog's blood sugar levels. It records all of his insulin measurements, and it's really useful because it helps me notice if my dog is feeling good or bad and what to do in those cases. It was a little difficult to learn how to use it because it's not something normal or common for regular use, but I started watching YouTube videos to learn how to interpret the results that the monitor gives me. It became easier over time. I started using it when my dog was about two months into the diagnosis because we didn't know it would be so beneficial for him; we thought it might hurt him, but it wasn't like that. We tried other methods to monitor his insulin levels, but right now, this device is really useful for saving my little dog's life. I'm really grateful for it, and I think it would be a great tool for anyone who has diabetes. It can be used not only for pets but also for humans, like little kids or adults. It's really useful, and even though it's not that easy to use, it becomes easier with some practice and time.
