We have an Alaskan Malamute and he never would smell me in my face. I had always had acid reflux but never thought about it much. Then I noticed I wasn’t having it and he kept trying to put his nose in my mouth and I thought it was strange. I went to the GI doctor and they found that I had esophageal cancer. I had 29 days of radiation and 6 weeks of chemo, surgery where they removed 1/2 of my esophagus and 1/3 of my stomach. Then a year of immunotherapy. He stopped doing it when I finally recovered from surgery! Dogs are life savers! #DogPerson #CanineWisdom #SnifferDogs #DogSensesOwner
