Yes, some pets, especially dogs, have been reported to have the ability to detect certain types of cancer in humans. Research has shown that dogs have a highly developed sense of smell that allows them to detect changes in the chemical composition of a person's breath, urine, or skin that can indicate the presence of cancer cells. There have been instances where pet dogs have shown unusual behavior towards their owners, prompting them to seek medical attention, leading to the early detection of cancer. However, more research is needed to fully understand and utilize this ability of pets in detecting cancer.
