Medical response dog

A medical response dog is a special kind of dog that helps people who have certain medical conditions or disabilities. These dogs can be trained to do different things depending on the person's needs. For example:

- Some medical response dogs can detect changes in a person's body that might signal a medical emergency, like a seizure or drop in blood sugar. When they notice these changes, they can alert their person or someone else nearby for help.
- Other medical response dogs can help people who have difficulty with their mobility. They might be trained to retrieve things, like medication or dropped items, or to provide support while their person is standing up or walking.
- Some medical response dogs can even be trained to help with mental health conditions like PTSD. They might provide comfort and support, or perform calming activities like blocking or turning on lights.

Medical response dogs are different from pets or regular service dogs because they have special training to help their owners with medical needs. They can make a big difference in the lives of people who need their help.
