When you go in for your mamogram, you'll just breathe on the dog.

I remember reading an article about a cancer dog being trained at a center here in the bay area a few years ago. The doctor interviewed said the hardest part was to teach the dog not to identify (by placing a paw on the patient's foot) without being told to do so. Once the dog walked into the lobby of the treatment center and put his paw on a patient's foot without being told to do so. Fortunately, the man had already been told he had cancer. But imagine knowing about cancer dogs, and having the dog come in and identify you before you'd even had a test. Ack!
