Name: Chino
Breed: Toy Poodle
Owner: Dot Koroleff

Chino is 17 months of age. He is mini/toy poodle, chocolate brown in colour. Since coming to me as an 8 week old puppy, he has been a constant companion, a quick learner and is well behaved when in public.  He is especially fond of people and does not show shyness or fear. His skill as an alert dog has been exceptional on more than one occasion.  He tends to wake early, sniff and lick my hands and generally nuzzles me with his nose until I get up and test my BSL.  I quite often register on the lower side of 5-7.  If however he thinks I am ok he lets me sleep in longer.  Recently he began to jump on me at around 2-4 am and behave as if he wanted to play.... it took a while (several nights) to figure out what was happening. .  He sleeps on my bed, usually touching me with his paw or using some part of me as a pillow. He often sleeps on the floor next to my bed.

In the evening before I retire he will sit beside my medication in the kitchen and will not come to bed unless I take it.

Because of all these reason I decided after much time to join Paws for Diabetics so that he may accompany in public.
