Welcome to the amazing world of Guide dogs, also known as service dogs,

These are the most amazing highly trained animals that assist visually impaired individuals in navigating their surroundings. They are trained to guide their handlers around obstacles and alert them to potential hazards, enabling them to move around independently and safely. Guide dog training is a rigorous process that requires patience, dedication, and expertise. In this essay, we will explore how guide dogs are trained, from their early development to their placement with their handlers.

Guide dogs are typically trained by professional organizations, such as Guide Dogs for the Blind or The Seeing Eye in the states.
