TRAINING DOGS TO HELP PEOPLE WITH LIFE-THREATENING HEALTH CONDITIONS

Our dogs give their 'owners' confidence, a better quality of life, greater independence and above all saving their lives on a daily basis.

With their amazing sense of smell our Medical Alert Assistance Dogs support individuals who live with dangerous health conditions.

Dogs can be trained to identify the odour of cancer. This allows the potential to develop a method of diagnosing cancer which would be simple and non-invasive.

We are using our expertise to train Bedbug Scent Detection Dogs to create a revenue stream in order to train more Medical Alert Assistance Dogs.
