Kramer, what a wonderful contribution to the world you make. My son is Type I & we drove all the way to CARES in KS for our alert dog! I've seen it first hand and it is amazing what these canines can do. Keep up the good work. You sir, are FedEx!

Dear Buddy, I enjoyed seeing
Dear Buddy,
I enjoyed seeing your little training film. You look just like your father, you sound just like your father, and I don't know who your dog looks or sounds like. That's a great job you are doing with the dogs, I REALLY enjoyed watching that and I am quite proud. You'll be getting an Emmy next year! Great job!
Love,
Aunt Loretta
ps- you're older than what I remember!
Kramer: What an enjoyment you
Kramer: What an enjoyment you must get in training these amazing dogs. I have currently had the complication of diabetes myself. After seening your story months ago I looked into obtaining this same type of assistive dog. Gus, a rescued German shepard/ Collie mix, is 4 months old and currently in training to become certified as a Diabetic/Therapy assistive dog. His ongoing training is going well and I would like to hear more about Mr. Darcy and all your current trainees. Thank you you are doing a wonderful thing! Dan

Daniel, I would be happy to help you and your DAD (Diabetic Alert Dog) in any way that I can. I can't tell from your response what area of the country you're located or whether you're a FedEx employee. But assistance is out there where ever you live. If my email address shows up in this msg, email me. If not look me up on Facebook (search Kramer Morgan) I will answer. Mr. Darcy has his own FB page and more friends than any one of us. Check it out. There are numerous resourses out there I can hook you up with.
p.s. Sorry for the delay in my reply
Kramer: Yes, I do work for
Kramer:
Yes, I do work for FedEx Express. It would please me to have help with training Gus. He his been very responsive and is learning hand commands at this time. Gus has amazed me a number of times with the compaionship. He has given me the protection I know I get knowing while he is around to help if needed. It is a wonderful thing you are doing! I will keep in contact through FedEx email. Again, thank you for all you do.

Tracy, great job on you mate.
Tracy, great job on you mate. Just got off the Paws for Diabetics website. Lots of good info there. Tell them for me that they will be hearing from me. I was really impressed with all the unique fund raising ideas on the site. We really need help in that area. The dog training is something we're very familiar with, but our goal is to be able to place these dogs with families that need them at zero cost. I thank you for your help! A SERVICE DOG MAY NOT BE YOUR WHOLE LIFE, BUT WILL DO THEIR BEST TO MAKE YOUR LIFE WHOLE.....Wildrose Lemon Sweet

Jerry, you're there. You know it's more fun than work.
I think it is really nice
I think it is really nice that Morgan Kramer of FedEx works with Wildrose Kennels to train those sweet Labrador Retrievers to detect low and high glucose levels for diabetics. I like the end, when the video shows the little puppies. Labrador Retrievers are so intelligent and sweet.
I am so proud to know you and
I am so proud to know you and to be part of your family. You do truly wonderful things and make such a difference in people's lives. Thank you.
What a wonderful way to help
What a wonderful way to help others in need. Does FedEx support your work? Is there a way to find out what the company donates? Good for you Kramer I'm very proud to know you.
Kramer, really enjoyed this

Kramer,
Thank you for all the work you do at Wildrose Kennels. Thanks for taking time to work with us at the May DAD Conference. Wildrose Abbie's Saved by Grace (Gracie) is now 4 1/2 months old and is alerting to low and high blood glucose levels. Wildrose Labs are AMAZING! Thank you for your service!

Nancy, thank you for paying such close attention to the video that you picked up Sweets name. She complained to me that the real star of the show should have been properly introduced. Wildrose Lemon Sweet say hello to Nancy.
Kramer, I will never forget
Kramer,
I will never forget your kindness and attention to my sister, Mary, who was having asymptomatic low sugar when we were at the Diabetic Alert Dog Conference in Mississippi. You were very sensitive to the situation in a very classy way, and you really helped her with her little dog, Button. You are one in a million. Wishing you all the best. FedEx is lucky to have you.:-) Peggy
Peggy, thank you for the high
Peggy, thank you for the high praise. I'm really not used to people saying I'm one in a million in a positive way. Anyway It's people like you and your sister who have helped me become a better person...thank the both of you and that rascal Button.
Kramer, Greetings from the
Kramer,
Greetings from the UK. My 4 year old Godson has just been diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. In supporting him and his family we came across the use of alert dogs. I must admit that I had not heard of this before and was totally amazed and impressed at the possibility. We have now identified a local trainer, like yourself, here and a puppy and the training begins soon. This will be such a godsend to have a guardian watching over him at all times. Although this is our personal story from this side of the pond, I just wanted to applaud your commitment and work in supporting those less fortunate and allowing them the freedom to be ABLED and not disabled. Thank you sir! I AM FedEx but you are a LEGEND. Best regards, Sean.
Sean, So good to know the
Sean,
So good to know the video helped someone directly affected by this dreadful disease. I hope everything goes well with your new pup. Just a short story of hope and how well a good dog can positively affect a Type 1's life. The handsome red dog in the vid is Mr. Darcy one of our first dogs from Wildrose. Abby, the girl Mr. D works for, doesn't feel her highs or lows but with Darcy working she gets alerts so early she is able to drive to college. He has recently begun sometimes to just get the raisins or juice for her lows (not something he's been trained to do). Sean, if my personal email doesn't show in this reply post again I will send it. I want to stay in touch and share a ton of info I have accumulated.
Regards,
Sweet & Kramer
