What life changers these dogs are! Amazing what they are trained to do. I wonder if there is some sort of memorial to them like the K-9 dogs, they deserve it!

I am continually amazed of thse dogs intelligence and intuition. I too, would never be able to foster a dog and then give it up though. Glad there are people out there that do

Living near Morristown, NJ, where Seeing Eye is located, I have watched and marvel about these seeing eye dogs since I was a kid. Amazing group; amazing dogs that do an amazing job.

This is another way that dogs have served their best friend. All dogs deserve to be treated with kindness and respect especially in light of all they do for us.

I was at a small airport once, and met a young pup that was in training for this exact same thing. It's temporary owners (teachers) said they would take it absolutely everywhere they go. They said it is so hard to spend every day for 6-12 months of their lives with a pup, then to have to give it away, but, the end result of it helping another human being was very heartwarming to them. Wow, a strong person you would have to be to be one of the trainers of these pups! It would be like having to give your kid up at a certain age. They deserve A LOT of credit!

I am fascinated by how intuitive these dogs can be. There has to be an incredible bond between a service dog and his owner considering the level of two-way trust involved.

I just had to read it again, and I'm glad I did. When someone uses the term "TeamWork", THIS relationship is exemplary of TeamWork more so than any athletic association I can think of. "Awesome" is still the best description I can come up with.

Service dogs are amazing! I remember when a couple in town here both got seeing eye dogs. It was a big event and everyone was very happy for them. It made their lives much easier.

I want to be a Puppy Hugger! There is a guide dog school in Patterson, NY, very near our shelter. The waiting list to do the socialization for the very young puppies is LONG. These schools are wonderful and provide such a great service to the blind.
