MEDICAL ALERT

DOGS SAVING LIFES

 

We train dogs to detect the odour of human disease. It is at the forefront of the research into the fight against cancer and helping people with life-threatening diseases.

Our dogs are trained to find the odour of diseases, such as cancer, in samples such as urine, breath, swabs., stroke and other neurological disorders. Our dogs are trained to detect minute changes in an individual’s personal odour triggered by their disease and alert them to an impending medical event.

 

 

Using their amazing sense of smell, dogs can be trained to identify minute odour changes emitted prior to an emergency and alert the person to take preventative action.

Our dogs are currently working for people with:

  • Type 1 diabetes
  • Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (PoTS)
  • Addisons Disease
  • Severe allergies
  • Other endocrine disorders
  • Episodes of sudden health deterioration
  • Neurological disorders

By assisting individuals with their condition, our dogs help reduce calls and hospital admissions, giving people and their families/carers greater confidence and independence, enabling them to lead a full and happy life.
