<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Franklin from Nashville Tennessee has our question of the week. \u00a0Franklin, like a lot of older adults, has a medical condition called A-Fib, which stands for Atrial Fibrillation. \u00a0AFib is a condition in which the heart beats irregularly and can lead to weakness, dizziness, shortness of breath and on the more severe end of the spectrum can cause blood clots and strokes. \u00a0Franklin wants to know exactly what an AFib alert dog is and what the dog can be trained to do to help him with his A-Fib. \u00a0 See what our answer is in this weeks Medical Alert Dog Monday video.<\/p>\n<\/div>
