lol the dog is like 'wtf are you doing? is this a game, why are you pretending to spaz out on the floor, what's with all these other people with camera's and stuff? are we having a party? oh i know, you probably think you are pretending to have a fit and you want me to press the button, well ok then, i'll play along".
My Pom puppy who is almost 2 years old now has been around me all his life and I have seizures. He jumps on my body and howls alerting my foster mom to help and then he stays on my body until she comes.
steevee1945 Well you don't "fool" the dog per se, you're training him for the real thing so that when they encounter the real thing they'll know what to do. And diabetic episodes and seizures do give off a type of pheromone. The change in chemical components in the body and brain of their owner give off scent. That's why they are so adept at alerting minutes and seconds before an visual signs. They do recognize visually too of course.
And to add to my last comment, it just seemed the dog responded MUCH faster when the person filming was out of sight at first, like when they'd walk around a corner, and he'd fall. I guess I'm just curious if they're trained to kind of wait a bit if someone they recognize is present.
The service dogs are taught to do both trigger the medical alert device, and alert the nearest person., as well as try to nudge and lick the persons face to help bring them out of a seizure. Also responses at home are different then in public. Also the order of responses depends on the clients preferences. Although this is simulated seizure it's close to what happened during this clients actual seizures. This service dog we trained has saved this clients life several times over the past 1.5 years. In actuality, less than 6 days after this testing the client was traveling out of town and was alone when he had a grand mal and stopped breathing. The dog performed as trained and brought EMS and saved his life. Story of it can be see here losangeles.cbslocal.com/2014/01/28/ventura-man-says-dog-saved-his-life-after-seizure/
Thanks for the quick response! And thanks for clearing that up for me. I didn't realize they were trained to differentiate between a public and home scenario. Bottom line is these dogs are incredible. Incredible story too! Thanks for sharing the link!
Dog is such amazing creatures. Good job Garth! I hope Garth will find somebody that he can help! On another note, why all the male adults sound like Goofy?
I had seizures when I was younger that I would eventually grow out of when I was around 22,23 or so. Anyways, I was given a dog, Belle. She was amazing in alerting me before ANY seizure. On average she would warn me 3-8 minutes beforehand. I was wondering about this dog and if he will be trained to help or alert before a seizure?
How does a dog know you are going to have a seizure? Is it a change in your breath or something? ( I know it is when your blood sugar is low, so it's the only example I know)
AndrewPaligaDogsLife He is pressing an emergency alert watch on his handler's wrist. I have a similar one although my service dog in training will eventually use a K9 rescue phone. Although, I would have hoped for the dog to be more attentive to his handler, he still did his job.
Rosie Stinnett no its a maybe. Dogs can sense what they have seen. If they are not aware of white silent seizures are they will not just pin it to a shaking one
There is different stages of training. They are shown the obvious signs on the visual aspect so that they get a clear idea what their jobs will be. After that, they are more exposed to visual cues. I do believe that once the dog is ready, they will meet their new owner. That's not the end of it really, they go through training together so that both person and dog become more bonded and aware of each other since everyone of different from each other.
Could the dog have been confused, because of the person filming being present and not responding? I mean, I know the dog did trigger the alert, but you see him or her repeatedly look towards the one filming. This is a serious question, as I'm just interested if a service dog would not respond immediately with an alert or wait for that person to intervene if there was someone present whom they recognized, or wait for commands or something. I don't know, just curious honestly because of how he looked multiple times, it seems, to the person filming. I'm curious if lets say a dog is trained to alert if they're alone, but sometimes you see the dog immediately run and just lay on that person, which seems to be the case when others are present during the persons seizure. I personally don't know much about service dogs, but I was curious if those two responses could be conflicting with each other in this specific video, since it was a simulation of someone having a seizure in a public spot and there was someone present the dog did recognize.
Amazing i have a pitt service dog in training to alert my sezures she has alerted 5 of my sezures so far and my when i first got her she didnt even know how to do anything and she just knew she alerted me her trainer told me you cant train a servicedog to alert or to tell you a sezure about to happen thwy just know its a gift its amazing how they just know 😊so far she half way through her training she doing very well your doing very well training that golden retriever? ! what an awsome job good luck to you both i hope the pup doing well Happy Holidays to you oh and the service dog for me lol sorry i have sever sezures and i have a unstable walk ever since i had my last 7 massive sezure it did some damage to me unfortunately so yea my service dog go to classes i traine her at home and she go to doggy boot camp twice a week for training and to socialize with other pups so its good for her any ways awsome training awsome video 💙💙💙💙💙
ka1kage Seriously dude? Yeah that was uncalled for, however what you said was very rude. What you said offends a wider range of people than his comment. No that doesn't excuse it but it doesn't make what you did any less offensive, or rude. So before you go off on some dumb rant think about who it effects.
Tori & Bosley How is what I said offensive or rude? "Embarrassing to watch" is what I said. I'm a victim in my own body, buddy. So you can fuck right off.
I wasn't aware they do this training in the middle of an open store without really warning surrounding people
I like how garth looks around to see if he can also alert a human that may be near to help his human. great job Garth.
Award to the ladies though at the end too!😸
yes he is faking, it states that at the start of the video. he is training the dog smh, do people read
N. Herbig no i dont but i type😄
N. Herbig im glad you know how to read the world needs you
+calico lee_ruiz - LOL OK lol
lol the dog is like 'wtf are you doing? is this a game, why are you pretending to spaz out on the floor, what's with all these other people with camera's and stuff? are we having a party? oh i know, you probably think you are pretending to have a fit and you want me to press the button, well ok then, i'll play along".
What did we ever do to deserve dogs? 😭
I'm glad the dog knows what to do, and it made me happy seeing the women yell for help..
This made me cry I don't understand why
Amazing job you'll are doing
Dog be like, goddamn man again ?
Awh. He's so sweet. He's like somebody help, don't y'all see my daddy!
camera man was distracting the dog.
absolutely amazing. I had no idea this was a service dogs were trained to do. thank you for posting.

I do not think you can fool the dog with a fake episode.
Dogs can sense the precursor signals of a seizure.
steevee1945 he said at the beginning of the video that the dog is being trained
steevee1945 so I doubt he has real seizures
steevee1945 Well you don't "fool" the dog per se, you're training him for the real thing so that when they encounter the real thing they'll know what to do.

Thank you for making my point.
People cannot fake the smell of an impending seizure, only the physical manifestations.
Do you know what signals?

Christie Craft it seems its just a seizure response dog, it looks like hes only training him to get help after
he's training to alert and to help him
How does a dog know you are going to have a seizure? Is it a change in your breath or something? ( I know it is when your blood sugar is low, so it's the only example I know)
its the change in your breath and sugar, eyes etc.
Incredible ❤️
The dog had no change in behavior. ....
AndrewPaligaDogsLife He is pressing an emergency alert watch on his handler's wrist. I have a similar one although my service dog in training will eventually use a K9 rescue phone. Although, I would have hoped for the dog to be more attentive to his handler, he still did his job.
He is AMAZING!!
AWESOME!! Good job Garth!!!
Wow. Just wow.
this made me cry
What if your having a seizure but not shaking does the dog still know that your having a seizure??
Sakster Rose yes they can sense it
Rosie Stinnett ok thanks
Rosie Stinnett no its a maybe. Dogs can sense what they have seen. If they are not aware of white silent seizures are they will not just pin it to a shaking one

Embarrassing to watch.
why would this be embarrassing.
