Dogs Detect Cancer

I saw an article that some researchers are working to use dogs as cancer detectors (less expensive than current procedures with comparable error rates).

I told UGA and Gretel about it and they went to the internet.

Sure enough, there is even a web site dedicated solely to this issue. The web site is called 

http://www.dogsdetectcancer.org/

although it credits other canines as having the ability to detect, other canines aren't so easily 'trained'.

Evidently the people doing the blog for that site expect a near term breakthrough in having dogs detect breast cancer via smelling the breath of subjects.
