"Making a Difference: Our Charitable Contributions"


Paws for Diabetics

From the president:

Paws for Diabetics Inc would like to sincerely thank our friends at Wag Tail Natural for kindly supporting us through the sales of their  Bear Hug Teddies and other fundraising ideas.

Paws for Diabetics Inc assistance dogs give their owners and carers additional support for diabetes management. A hypoglycaemic episode (low blood sugar level), if left untreated can lead to coma and even death.

These dogs are real little life savers, they are quicker at identifying a hypoglycaemic episode and more accurate than a CGM. These dogs give their owners advanced warning of an impending hypoglycaemia episode to allow for prompt treatment to help avert the episode from happening and they give the carer of a diabetic reassurance and take away the worry and stress associated with the ongoing care of someone with diabetes.

Currently Paws for Diabetics Inc does not receive any government funding so we have to rely on our generous supporters like Wag Tail Natural to help us raise much needed funds.

By purchasing one of these really great Snuffle Mats you are not only buying a really great enrichment tool for your pet, but you are also helping to support a diabetic in need to lead a more independent life with the help of their Paws for Diabetics Inc assistance dog.
