My name is Monkey!

Monkey is a Diabetic Alert Dog in training. She is doing quite well with detecting low glucose levels in diabetic patients. At this time, I am beginning to train her to detect high glucose levels so that she will have both skills. Monkey has been in basic training and obedience courses for the past several months. Although Monkey is rather well trained, she is very young and will need reinforcement training. Monkey is a high energy Chihuahua Mix. I believe she has Rat Terrier a/o Min Pin in her. Did I mention how sweet she is? Monkey is a loyal little love bug, she loves to curl her little body up against me, and she sleeps right next to me during the night. She is crate trained, and very rarely barks in my home. Monkey does not like to be too far from her person. Unlike most of my foster dogs, she always follows me out of the dog park. Monkey does have a high prey drive but she is learning to listen quite well as we walk by squirrels, crows, and other dogs.
