Description
Daisy's Gift: A remarkable story of love and life-saving detection. Claire Guest's life was changed forever when her dog Daisy, a fox red Labrador, sensed something was wrong. Claire had been walking her dogs when Daisy nudged her breast insistently and stared up into her face with big brown eyes. Sensing something was amiss, Claire visited her GP and soon discovered she had a deep form of breast cancer that was difficult to diagnose. Daisy's keen sense of smell had saved Claire's life, but it also sparked an idea - what if dogs could be trained to detect other serious illnesses? With her scientific background and love of dogs, Claire set up the charity Medical Detection Dogs. The result has been remarkable: Daisy and her canine companions have helped change the lives of many seriously ill people and their families. This book tells the story of how our relationship with dogs can unleash life-saving talents, changing not only the medical world but also our own lives too.
