Our Vision
The Promise of Early Detection
Early detection is crucial in the fight against cancer, significantly improving treatment outcomes and survival rates.
Our trained dogs can identify cancer in its earliest stages by detecting unique odors associated with the disease. This non-invasive method offers a promising complement to traditional screening techniques.
Building Trust Through Research
Extensive research supports the efficacy of canine cancer detection:
- A study published in BMC Cancer demonstrated that trained dogs could identify lung cancer patients from breath and urine samples with a detection rate of 97.6%.
- Research highlighted by the Prostate Cancer Foundation shows that dogs can detect prostate cancer, including its most lethal forms, by analyzing urine samples.
- An article from ScienceDaily reports that dogs can accurately sniff out cancer in blood samples, achieving nearly 97% accuracy.
