Nicola is registered disabled, and she has trained her own Rottweiler to be her medical service dog. Her dog will alert her if she is going to have a panic attack, amongst other incredible skills she can do. She was the first to teach a gluten alert in the UK. She is the author of the book "Your Service Dog and You, a Practical Guide" and she also trains IGP with her second Rottweiler. 

Here I ask her how she taught her dog to detect her panic attacks, IGP and much more.

Her book can be bought here https://mcfarlandbooks.com/product/your-service-dog-and-you/This is a really interesting listen, especially if you are into scent work.
