I have Standard Poodles. I owe my life to them, to the first one I had, in fact. Cybele was my first seizure alerter. She taught herself to warn me & to hold me in my chair during a seizure. At the time it was widely believed that this was impossible. We know better now, and I have since trained two others to work for me.
Poodles are smart, which helps immensely in the training.
Before we settled on the Poodles, we were seriously tempted by a young male Saluki. But I doubt he would ever have been able to do the seizure work.
