Guide Dogs for the Blind

Guide Dogs for the Blind is a non-profit organization which trains and supplies the dog as partners for the disabled. Guide Dogs are raised for the first year from puppyhood by volunteers, before being returned for more advanced training.

We visit a local Guide Dogs puppy club to find out how puppies are trained to remain calm in stressful situations, and how volunteers cope with having to give up their puppies after a year.

@CelticSister I'm sure Nutella was named after the breakfast cream!

to those who raise the dogs, the precious animals, i raise a glass to you, a job that is unsung and ignored, the freedom you give to the blind is impossible to calculate, the dogs are loved- too many aren't...Menzel12846 mirrors my feelings...and they give f*****g medals to athletes? words fail me..
