Sponsor Ernie

Sponsor Ernie today and help him save a life

Sponsor Ernie from just £5 a month and you will receive a fantastic welcome pack and regular pupdates following his training.

Hi, I’m Ernie. I’m an inquisitive and confident puppy and with your help, I can become a life-saving Medical Detection Dog.

Breed: Labrador

Gender: Male

Colour: Yellow

Likes: Playing with his toys, exploring new places and snuggling with his humans.

Dislikes: The fences in the garden that prevent him exploring further afield!

Ernie is the first Medical Detection Dog that Flo and her family are socialising for us. They are really enjoying the journey so far. Flo and Ernie have just started going out for walks and Ernie is learning very quickly about walking nicely on the lead and is a very confident and happy little chap.

Trainer Ali adds: “Ernie is a delight to work with so far. He loves learning and works very hard to make the right choices and thinks things through. He is a calm and confident boy with a lovely personality. He has just started coming along to classes and he has taken to it like a duck to water. Everything new is taken in his stride and he’s progressing really nicely.”

We’re delighted with Ernie’s early training and it is clear that he and Flo are getting on well. We are sure that he’ll go on to achieve great things.

The difference a sponsor puppy can make

Elizabeth’s journey with PoTS has been a rocky one to say the least. She only appeared to have black out episodes whilst doing judo and used to get some kind of warning beforehand. As time passed she began to feel more unwell in day to day life; was always extremely tired and dizzy, ached constantly, and had frequent heart palpitations and chest pain. Her black outs also started happening more and more frequently without warning, and whilst doing daily activities, such as school, shopping or watching TV. Elizabeth also had a fair few bad injures and concussions from dropping suddenly. Henry and Elizabeth were partnered up and ready to give it a whirl in the real world. Elizabeth was blown away how much more relaxed, calm and safe her episodes were. Henry would alert, she’d sit down, and everything would run its course smoothly; no injuries or drama. With time his alerting became really strong and he hardly missed any episodes! Henry has allowed Elizabeth to take her independence back and start living! He’s her wet nosed knight in shining armour and she couldn’t be more grateful to him.
