Researchers are investigating whether dogs can detect COVID-19 in people.
Lets hope the idea works…it would be a fast way of testing for it.

bless DOGS! there is seemingly no end to ways they are able and WILLING to help us lowly humans! xoxo
I will never ever forget the time that my Zeke simply stopped when we were on a walk. I very nearly even tripped over him he stopped so suddenly. he just sat down and looked up at me and stared. he refused to move. I finally walked him back home. that’s when I discovered I’d had a small stroke. I’ve told you about it before! that convinced me. HE knew I’d had the stroke even when I didn’t know it.
I couldn’t relate how numbers worked. even to call 911. it was incredible.
so I’m sure they could help with the Covid 19 virus!
Yes, they are impressive! Thank you for sharing that story.
This is so interesting…and I can see it being a success.
I can too.
We saw that story too, and we so hope that the studies are successful, and very quickly. That would be such a good way to track this evil virus.

You pups are amazing at things like this!
The only thing that bothers me about that experiment is they also say that dogs can also get the virus.
As I understand it, the ones who have tested positive got it from their families and the pups didn’t get very sick at all. I’m guessing the humans involved will be watching for problems like that.
interesting but the ramifications of the dogs ending up with the virus not good…
So far no serious cases found in pups, so fingers crossed that continues.
Dogs are amazing animals and can do so many things.
Dogs are soooo smart and so are the people that figure out how to train them to do it… amazing
Arf!
I’m always fascinated with what is discovered dogs can be trained to do.
This would be wonderful…as long as no rabbits show up!
