I don't know if i'd trust my dog to back a trailer...you know with having to steer in the opposite direction and all.

Murphy backed the trailer right into the house then tried to run for it,
leaving Emma hung up in the back to take the blame

Your property looks like doggie paradise. Woods, a lake, plenty of room to run. Active pups are happy pups.

I think the better question is, "can they clean the fish loon catches"?

Loon,
Had a Lab that developed that at age 8. She had been having issues for many months before the diagnosis. She lived a fine 5 years following that diagnosis to age 13. Diabetes, I feel, had taken most of her sight by the end, and caused failures internally. I suspect kidney failure. Beyond the end, the day to day is not bad to deal with. Assuming you will be administering intravenous insulin, I can offer some tips. We kept the syringe in the fridge with the insulin. This allowed for longer use. Cleaned with rubbing alcohol between uses, it would last 5 - 7 days. It would dull and cause her to flinch at the time of insertion. This is an expensive undertaking, and saving dollars by multiple uses of the syringe helped. We were using human insulin, which was the best option then. I believe there are better options now. I always injected her on top of the neck. Grabbed a hold of some skin with the left hand and kind of used a petting motion that would both distract her and relax the skin. Quick insertion is best. Most times she never knew the needle was inserted. The cold insulin was the thing she felt most, in my opinion. The toughest part is gauging the levels. Strips to test urine were the method, and again, that was not cheap. Once you get a grip on levels, your job will get easier. Make sure she eats after shots. Very important! Lack of food will cause seizures. She looks like a sweetheart and your lucky to have each other. Good luck with it all.
