Is it feasible for them to link up with the PAT Dogs, so that they can be trained to sniff out these diseases when they visit care homes, for example?

I just read your newsletter about your visit to Medical Detection Dogs and I got tearful. Just wonderful stuff. Thank you, and especially them.

Absolutely love this. A good friend waited over a year before the consultant would confirm he had Parkinson’s. I realise that this method couldn’t always be used but it is great.
