Pata d’Açúcar Association
The Pata d’Açúcar Association is a non-profit association, legally incorporated in December 2016, whose purpose is to boost, promote, propose,
proceed and assist the training of dogs with a view to the early detection of seizures of
hypoglycemia in humans with diabetes disease.
In pursuit of its objective, the association developed the pioneering project in Portugal, which encompasses two social causes simultaneously, to contribute to the reduction of animal abandonment in Portugal and in parallel to allow diabetics to have another complementary means of control. of your blood glucose.
The concept of the project is based on the triangulation of the idea of the dog as a companion animal, the use of its innate olfactory abilities and the final ability, after training, to detect and signal low blood glucose. The reconciliation of the three factors strengthens the affectionate bond between man and dog, and is now seen not only as a companion animal but as a powerful preventative aid in managing a diabetic’s blood glucose levels.
