Caring for the dogs who care for us:
AAHA releases first veterinary guidelines for working, assistance, and therapy dogs Lakewood, CO — November 1, 2021 —Dogs play critical roles in keeping our communities safe and running smoothly. They serve on the frontlines in the military and in emergency response situations, and they help us sniff out everything from explosives to narcotics and contraband to medical conditions with their sense of smell that is capable of detecting odor at 1 to 2 parts per trillion—between 10,000 to 100,000 times better than humans.
