A four-legged friend is a special friend. We should always remember this, because if we know how to give him the right affection he deserves, our faithful friend will be able to reward us in the best way, especially when we need it.

There are many stories of friendship between a canine four-legged friend and his human friend. When a situation involving a health problem gets in the way , we can truly realize how precious the help of a dog is.

What we are about to tell you is the story of a dog named Oddie and his human friend, who has the name of Pablo . Unfortunately the latter suffers from diabetic crises. And do you know how Oddie helps him on a daily basis in dealing with this problem? Hearing this story makes you really think that Oddie is a very special dog . And Pablo, thanks to his help, manages to live more peacefully.

What the dog Oddie does for his human friend

We have said that Oddie is a very special friend for Pablo, because the dog warns the owner when a diabetic crisis is about to occur . Oddie is one of those little dogs who are specially trained to do this job.

Thanks to his abilities he can notice up to 20 minutes before a crisis occurs. In this way Pablo, warned by his little dog, can take a life-saving drug and runs for cover before his health problem can cause serious consequences.

Pablo is 16 years old and lives in Spain and Oddie is one of those service animals who can tell when his owner’s blood glucose level changes very quickly. He is so good that he can identify the problem even up to 30 minutes before .

Oddie’s arrival changed Pablo’s life

Pablo had been diagnosed with diabetes four years earlier and must always carry a syringe with him to self-administer insulin in case of a crisis. Pablo was always nervous before Oddie came into his life.

The idea to get an assistance dog came from the young man’s aunt, who is a veterinarian. It was she who told him about assistance dogs for people with diabetes. Since Oddie arrived in his life, Pablo can live much more peacefully.

In fact, the same boy explained that, before episodes of lowering or increasing blood glucose occur, humans release a substance that trained dogs can smell. At that moment Oddie looks at him intensely and starts barking to warn him.
