In this book, Taffy the dog goes to the Veterinarian for a check-up. Taffy has diabetes and her owners learn how to care for her special needs. Diabetes is a condition that happens when humans or animals have uncontrolled blood sugar. Sometimes when you have diabetes you need a drug called insulin. Just like in humans, diabetes in dogs is serious but is manageable with proper nutrition and exercise and, if needed, with the drug insulin. Taffy's owner monitors her blood sugar to be sure her diabetes is under control. Taffy also gets an insulin shot each day to help her body control her blood sugar. She also needs to eat special dog food that will not raise her blood sugar. She needs to eat at the same time each day, as well as receive her insulin at the same time each day. This is a big responsibility for Taffy's owners. But although she is diabetic, Taffy is like every other dog. She loves to go to the park, play with her toys and take long naps. Enjoy her story of play time, nap time and healthy eating to control her diabetes. Follow her journey of learning how to stay a happy and healthy pup!
