[Dailydrool] Diabetic Dog for Candy

[Marilyn Briggs via Dailydrool]

Our Sasha was diabetic. Injections at 8 and 8. I didn't go out past 8:30 for years. Important they eat so the 
insulin doesn't put them into shock. We had to bribe her at times with really good stuff. I remember giving her 
the injection in the morning and then trying to find something she would eat before I left for work. My sister also 
had a diabetic lab. They seem to do really well for a number of years, and then just don't anymore. Sasha was older 
when she was diagnosed, as was my sister's Daisy, the lab. They did well for 3-4 years and then kind of crashed. Younger guys 
will probably do better. Best of luck. Both led very normal lives as long as they got their injections and ate regularly. And there are worse things, like cancer, so not all that bad. It will be OK. There are some groups on line for diabetic dogs that were helpful to me. If you can't find them, let me know, and I will give you some info.
