Dogs Can Smell Cancer

January 17th, 2006 in Dogs, Pets

Dogs can smell cancer.  These researchers have trained dogs to sit when they smell lung cancer and they got it right 99% of the time.  This is not new news.  I wonder why it hasn’t been applied more globaly?  Is it a shortage of cancer researchers who also know how to train dogs?
