as a newly diagnosed Type 1 Diabetes patient, I am very encouraged to learn about service dog for Diabetic patients. Sad though that location wise, being in Singapore/Asia, we do not have something similar.

For the past 12 years, I have trained dogs for obedience and for certain aspects of agility. My teacher, Harry, learned directly from Mr William Koehler. (http://www.koehlerdogtraining.com/)
Upon knowing my condition, Harry and I are wondering if we can a) train my dog b) train other dogs to help other patients in Singapore. We know the basics and we are proficient at training tracking dogs.
We think that being aligned to an organization that is experienced and can guide us along will help us help others quicker. We plan to be a non-profit as well.
so far emails to such organizations have not been answered. if anyone knows anyone that can help, kindly let me know.
