List of guide dog schools
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Guide dogs are assistance dogs trained to lead blind and visually impaired people around obstacles. In the United States, the name "seeing eye dog" is only used in reference to a guide dog from The Seeing Eye in Morristown, New Jersey, which has trademarked the term.[1] Guide dog schools are accredited by the International Guide Dog Federation.
