The mission of the Dogs for Cures Foundation is to make a positive difference in the lives of individuals with catastrophic diseases such as type 1 diabetes and lung cancer by providing medical service dogs that are trained to use their senses and service abilities to improve quality and length of life for patients 24 hours per day.

Dogs for Cures Foundation is dedicated to:

1) Training medical service dogs.

2) Educating physicians, patients and the public about the value of medical service dogs to improve health by providing diagnostic support through their sensitive sense of smell, reducing medical complications through their monitoring of medical changes in a patient, and improving quality of life through their ability to support patient independence and safety.

3) Improving the medical service dog industry through scientific research to validate the benefits of medical service dogs and to establish best practices in the training of medical service dogs and their owners/patient partners.

As many as 5 million Americans have diseases that could benefit from the assistance of a medical service dog. Over a million patients with type 1 diabetes still do not have accurate glucose monitoring and maintenance, especially at night while they are asleep. Millions more patients are diagnosed with cancers when they have advanced too far for treatment.
