Doctor Dogs: How Our Best Friends Are Becoming Our Best Medicine

Sure, having a furry doggo companion is pretty great, but these four-legged pals are more than just cuddly friends – they're like medicine for everyone. So argues author Maria Goodavage in Doctor Dogs, and she takes us on a journey across the globe to explore the latest in canine research and health care. Some dogs are proving they can detect cancers, heart issues, and seizures way before humans can catch a whiff. People dealing with mental health challenges find support from their service dogs during tough times, and families with anxious kids are experiencing a boost in relief. It's about time you started thinking about your doggone health!
