We have a diabetic miniature schnauzer who was diagnosed almost 7 years ago. WD works for her and she receives insulin 2x a day 12 hours apart. We have found that being faithful to the time is critical for her. We have noticed we can tell how her numbers are from her behaviors - energy level, quantity of urine and thirst, etc. After a while you kind of get a second sense.
She is now going blind from cataracts but still fights on. We will help her along for as long as she seems happy. She has done well with this disease for so long.
It can be intimidating at first but you will learn how to manage all this. Hopefully you can get the numbers down where they need to be. Good luck with this all.
