Hearing Dogs
The Project ~~~~~~~~~~
The Yankalilla Club supports the Australian Lions Hearing Dogs.
This year we have donated $1000.00 to this worthy cause.
The Australian Lions Hearing Dogs' Diabetic Alert Dog program is proving to be very successful, even at this early stage and they are now looking for type 1 diabetics to apply for a dog.
​
After the successful placement of our first Diabetic Alert Dog in late 2022, we are excited to now be entering phase 2 of the development of our Medical Alert Dog program.
We are looking for type 1 diabetics that fit the following criteria:
Over 18 years of age
Received a type 1 diabetes diagnosis 12+ months ago
Non-smoker (and no other smokers in the home)
No other dogs living in the home
Living in South Australia
​
Utilising current technology such as CGM or insulin pump
​
If this is you, and you are interested in applying for a Diabetic Alert Dog, please contact Laura Harris directly at laura@lionshearingdogs.com.au
Please note, Lions Diabetic Alert Dogs are provided to eligible and approved applicants free of charge; as a gift from our kind supporters and Lions Clubs
