Very interesting. I don't know if you have read any of the reports about dogs monitoring their owner's health by sniffing. Apparently they're very good at detecting cancer.

Now, realistically what chance is there of expensive and lucrative tests being abandoned by the health professions in favor of a simple breath analysis? Call me cynical, but it is big business.

How do you teach a dog to say "he has cancer" ...... unless it's kinda like drug tests at the border

That was funny Cbob!
I knew about the dogs sniffing out cancer and someone on TOB actually posted about their own experience and thanked the dog for being alive today.
Not all dogs seem to be able to do it. But, if a dog starts licking repeatedly or attempts to bite at a specific spot regularly then you might want to pay attention and get it checked out.

Should one get excited when a dog starts humping their leg? Just what would that mean in "doggie speak"?
